Today is Sunday. This is our second weekend (sunday) here in Burnaby, Canada. Officially living here as a homestay for 11 days now.
Yesterday we went strolling again along Kingsway (well, Burke St. first) and the guys went to to NCIX while I spent the afternoon looking for pasalubong stuff in Metrotown Mall, Sears and Best Buy.
Buying was easy since I need no translator when talking to the staff and all. But I wasn’t able to buy that many.
While I was in Sears, I went ahead and checked out those HDTVs, those bluetube black tube.. technically they’re no longer ‘tube’ but hey, the tube will always be the TV.
Bought a 10-pair socks which is on sale marked at $14.99, but bouth it around $9 something (thanks sa scratch and save). Also bought souvenir shirt for Matt and Sean.
Next place I found myself was in Best Buy across the street… again, check out the cool stuff they have inside.. HDTV, Bluray players, DVD and BlueRay Discs. mp3 players and ipods accessories and tons of stuff… plus Zen! That $100 Creative Labs Zen.. :)
Geesh, that is one of my longest post title ever!
Are you looking for a place to stay (homestay) here in Vancouver/Burnaby British Columbia, Canada? Perfect!!
I certainly wish that this post and information in here will help someone out there looking for a very nice place to stay (a homestay) here in Burnaby, Canada.
I want to post here my personal experience in homestay. At present I am staying here in British Columbia, Canada, in Vancouver to be specific. Actually, to be more specific still, it’s in Burnaby.
But since the location of the homestay place I’m staying in is in the area of Burnaby commercial district and super near the Boundary (Road) between Vancouver and Burnaby, I can say that I am in Vancouver and Burnaby at the same time… Both are very conviently accessible.
What is Homestay and It’s Advantages?
You probably know what ‘homestay’ is or you wouldn’t be searching for it right? But in case you don’t know, it’s a living arrangement in which a foreigner (a person from foreign land… or internation student or cross trainess) lives with a family in the home.
