Life in Nelson

---

Hi Everyone
Just a quick update on life the past few weeks.
Been in Nelson for almost two weeks now living at Paradiso (aka Paradise) and it has been fantastic.
We have been hanging out with our Canadian friends from Saskatoon, Montreal and BC.... its pretty funny that you travel half way around the world and end up spending most of your time with Canadians here.
Days have been blending together the past few weeks have gone by so quickly.
I am learning how to play poker and started going to "hot yoga" classes (which are way too hot and I miss fit it in fitness yoga but I have definately enjoyed the classes) We have had a beach day and tons of days hanging by the pool.
Night life in Nelson is pretty chill lots of open mic nights and pool halls so we have had a few nights in the happening downtown Nelson (stay away from after bar french fries if you ever come here I swear I lost a year off my life with the amount of salt)
The plan is to stay here till friday (the job search was something we just conveniently forgot to do - almost went apple picking) and then we might pick up and travel a little more before settling down to find jobs - would like to take advantage of summer before it turns into fall here.
Thats all for now keep everyone posted.
- C
