waving colorful flag of canada and national flag of jordan. macro

I lived in a simple neighbourhood with my family with four brothers and two sisters. I had a very cheerful personality. After I finished high school, which was a very hard stage in my life, I moved to Jordan with my family. That was the toughest decision I had ever made in my life. However, after that I met the love of my life and we got married. Eventually, we moved to Canada. I disliked the weather when I moved here to Canada but I like how friendly the people here are even when they don't know each other. I find the relationships with family here different than back home. For example, many children leave home at a young age to be independent and leave their parents, which is very different from back home where children stay with their parents to help take care of them and support them. Overall, I really enjoy my life in Canada. I feel like it will give my kids many opportunities.
