Dream On
365 days, or 525.600 minutes (… and you can do the math for the seconds): That’s how long we have been living in Canada now. Exactly one year ago we arrived at the Vancouver International Airport, with three backpacks, one carry-on suitcase and our documents to become Permanent Residents. We knew we wanted to live…
Enjoy The Silence
You haven’t heard from us in a while. First of all: luckily we are safe & sound, not bored, not tired of each other, still working, still able to spend some time in nature nearby (without running into bears, cougars, or other humans) and kind of enjoying the silence – we adapted to the new…
In The Cold, Cold Night
A poor kitten, lovely music in a living room, walking for a good cause and hiking for fun – that pretty much sums up our last week. A poor kitten in a cute onesie Little Pusby is now six months old. Time to be spayed. Therefore, we took her to the vet this week. When…
Life’s What You Make It
Six weeks have passed since our last post, and many things have happened. In case you are wondering what that might be – here’s an update on (nearly) everything C1, C2, Pusby and Pai experienced. Fun with cats Our furry companions Pusby and Pai finally got to know each other, since Pai fully recovered. They…
We Are Family
Not only do we have a little „Puss in Boots“ in our house – now we share it with a little whale rider as well: Paikea! She is a black and white tuxedo cat. That’s why she was originally named Orca. The very cute Pai is another rescue kitten. Someone found her in the woods…
Peace
Happy Holidays – and a Happy New Year (even a new decade) to all of you, hopefully filled with peace, love and adventures! Or as Neil Gaiman put it: “I hope you will have a wonderful year, that you’ll dream dangerously and outrageously, that you’ll make something that didn’t exist before you made it, that…
Christmas Island
‚Tis the season to be jolly … the first one we experience in Canada. And how colourful, shining and sparkling it is! Almost everywhere we look, there are gleaming, glittering houses, gardens and trees – even one of the most beautiful Christmas trees stands right here in Sooke, at least in our opinion. On Whiffin…
Sweetest Perfection
Our house is not what it used to be. Suddenly the rooms are filled with strange noises, action and cuteness. We’ve got a new roommate, a very fluffy one: May we introduce to you – the one and only Pusby. Pusby is a 15-weeks-old kitten. A non-profit charity named Cat’s Cradle Animal Rescue rescued her…
All Sparks
Time flies, indeed! 6 months ago we arrived with a ferry on the island. We have experienced, seen, learned so much during that time – and have written about that on this blog. One thing that never ceases to amaze us: The generosity of (more or less) strangers. People in Canada are very, very friendly…
Just Can’t Get Enough
Nothing new from us in Sooke this week – everything took its course, everything is fine. It was a sunny, beautiful week on the West Coast for sure! So, we just share some pics of our energizing walks from the past few days. Enjoy!
