#canadayear - week 9
Saturday: During breakfast, I met the irish guy (Luc) again, also another guy from canada, who is going to spend his weekend here biking. New zealand guy was around as well, not to mention the japanese data scientist.
I also met an indian guy who studies... data science. Seems to be a hot spot for those people.
I went to a start up slam, a lot of young people (nerds) here. I have been to a CCC once, but this was something completely different. I got a free meal though, that was nice.
Sunday: I finally went to the Beacon Hill Park. Very nice area there. I then went back via the coast line, beautiful.
In the evening, I met someone from Wales. Also the indian data scientist was around. The irish guy celebrated his last evening here with a guitar combo with another guest, very nice.
Monday: I wanted to relax from the "exhausting" work, but Chris, a guy from england, dragged luc (the irish guy) and me to an irish pub and we watched a football game. After that, we went to a close park and luc played a bit on his guitar.
In the evening, I had a very nice talk with the bamboo guy (pretty sure constantly high) and someone from Iran who shows other Iranians vancouver and surroundings for a living.
Tuesday: This time I went to the beach just because the weather was nice. I meat Léa, a french girl, and another guy from france, not to mention Paul, a very loud but nice guy from Ottawa. He tried to escape the canadian winter here, as well as I am.
Wednesday: I spend most of the day programming @thechameleonbot, which is now almost ready to be released. On other terms, I met a guy from australian and we played cards together for an hour, that was nice.
Thursday: I am going to a new farm. Which means a two hours bus ride. They are vastly different from the iona farm I came from, three little children, a lot of animals. But I got another german woofer here, which is great. Someone my age, relatable :)
Friday: We did quite some chores, planted cauliflower. We will have to move hay, they have a quad for that here, definitly looking forward to that :D
The photos will be from Victoria, next week from this farm.

#canadayear - week 10
Life on the farm is pretty exhausting. There are three small children running around, constant noise. And the farm is quite big, we have three chores a day. But Luca is a great guy to have around and someone from my age, so thats really nice as well.
I cant really be bothered to write down what we did every day, but thats what we did the last week: Regularly getting hay with the quad, cleaning the pens in the barn, getting tomatoes inside after the frost, building a feeder out of gutters for the chickens, moving mash boxes (leftovers from brewing beer, which they get for the animals; unnecessary heavy), fixed holes in fences. We also went on two trips to see waterfalls and a lake. So thats cool.
