Pooja - the problem is a lot of Indian PR/students to Canada who are TH-camrs have kinda similar videos and content. Walmart/Dollarama, apartment/house hunt, PR stuff etc etc. Also they do a lot of videos regarding PR related content, jobs in certain cities, provinces - it's kinda repetitive in most cases. That's what a lot of people who are interested in Canada (whether they are planning to apply to go there or not) expect. There are a few that are different like yours and those are the ones that I like to watch.
HI Pooja, I'm the biggest fan of your Editing and vlogging skills. I'm so glad you addressed this topic finally. Even I was so sick of people making 'new immigrant life' comments on your channel. Lol. There are so many people who make mediocre quality videos and talk about immigration in Canada on TH-cam but viewers need to understand that you are a lifestyle vlogger and your content is completely different. I absolutely love your videos. You do you Pooja. I love to see your channel growing and you deserve it.
You made me tear up Pooja. I came to Canada as a student, have a job now and have started my own digital venture too. I am new to all this and sometimes it gets too much, but then I remember that nothing comes easy. Your passion needs hardwork and sacrifice. 🌸
I migrated to Canada in 1987, still an Indian of 1987 at heart. Eventhough India has also moved on. I totally understand and identify with your journey thus far in Canada. Just keep going with this enthusiasm and motivation. You are headed in the right direction.
Well, Pooja One thing is for sure, the time you spent on youtube rather than spending on a JOB that you don't like was definitely a good decision as the hard work that you put in upskilling yourself and planning and shooting good content is clearly visible in your videos. Your Vancouver videos really hit the spot, I was in such awe to see these rather beautiful and amazingly shooted videos for free. Your channel is definitely worth at least a Million Subs and this is coming from a big-time youtube watcher :)... Finally, I just want to say this, JOBs are not bad like 9-5 in companies are not bad it's actually amazing if you earn that job and excel at it and are also happy while doing it. It's just doing what you think is best for you and making an informed decision.
Huh...you made me reflect on my life here in Canada too...I came as a student. Struggled a lot .I even worked as a dishwasher to save money...and now I am in my own house..with a government job (city of Vancouver)which pays me well..living my life ..I feel my struggles have made me grounded and taught me so much about myself ..I am new person altogether and I am happy...
Even after living overseas more than two decades I miss my family everyday. That will never go and that’s ok. Put effort into making good friends and that will make it so much easier and homely! The more you make housework as part of your life it gets easier. Believe me keeps one active and fit more than going to gym 😀
Love how far you've come❤ been following since the pandemic started. Unfortunately people will always box you as an "immigrant" and expect you to be suffering and complaining instead of thriving
even though i’m grateful for all the bucket list memories canada has offered me, it makes me feel a sense of satisfaction that if i ever go back to my country i’ll feel complete.
I usually NEVER drop in comments. But OH MY GOD, your rant today has been my rant for the past year and a half. Never felt like anyone understood this. This video was so comforting, I feel so relieved to know that it is normal to feel the way I do.
Rarely people show real struggles and behind the scenes, you just made one of the best video for your channel. There are seriously very few videos in youtube which shows bad side of Canada, Immigrants or people who are planning to move soon always check your videos so, you are inspiring everybody! Lots of love and strength to you.
Seeing your videos since the beginning just because you speak english and no one here speaks it in India. Now, you both gives inspiration to me for building something from the scratch.
I recently broke up with my boyfriend and I was feeling reallyyyyy depressed… I am starting therapy soon as well but your video… especially where you said that we need to introspect… it inspired me a lot peekapoo!! I loveeee watching your videos and I just loveee that feel good vibe that you always bring in even when its something bad… love from India!
This video is too good! Me and my wife are moving to Canada next month, and have been following your channel since the very beginning, and it was so great watching the recap of it all! Really loved the small moments you have documented through the journey! Keep making such videos ✨😇
No worries about the negative comments, I have been following you from pass 1 and half yrs,I know you both have done a lot to be there,keep following your heart and di what you love doing. All the best.😊
Hey.. I have lived in the US for 5 years and a year now in Canada and I still having that feeling of being far from home and missing my people every single day and not being able to be there at the drop of a hat. Its tough living the life of an immigrant no matter which country and the challenges are endless and so is the never ending list of buying stuffs, essential stuffs🤣. But grateful for the exposure, struggles and the growth for sure. Great vlog!🥂
Yes...It gets better & better with time, I moved to University of Hawaii, USA from Pakistan in 1968, met & married my wife from Nepal. Came to Canada in 1973....we have no kids...life gets very normal even after marriage in USA....you become your own person with Individual & common Interest....we are Taurus & Libra very much feel " this is our land "...Good luck with you being " little less emotional "
Seeing all your old videos In this video just made me realize that I have been here from the very beginning and I am still here…u are indeed special Pooja and I love your videos ❤️❤️.
This video is so relatable. I live here in Canada too and whatever you shared is very true. I have been here for 7 years and still I feel the same about living away from family and every day is a new struggle. Your point about finding real friends is true as well. Still unable to find friends in this country whom you can call at any time day or night. All your bad points that you mentioned are correct and I would totally agree with you.
i can relate so much!! my presence is here but my mind is in the Philippines. we actually immigrated to Canada, just months apart :) and I’m so proud of what you and saransh have accomplished so far!! each immigrant is different..
Loved how you summed up all of your previous vlogs into 1 as a journey. Living in Pakistan, trying to get PR from Pakistan to follow the same passion as you have. Getting so many insights into how you need to balance your wants and needs while being in the present. Best of luck with your journey ahead. Commenting here after a year.
Hi pooja, after 2 years of being your follower on youtube i have to say you always tried to make your videos way too much close to your real life and i really appreciate it. i kinda know some up and downs in your life i mean i felt the things you’ve been shared with us I hope u to be as good as you’re now and even better than this moment. I love how you keep being motivated to continue your life. At the end i love you so much and i will support you till the end of my life.💋💋
I totally agree with the busy lifestyle here, cooking is hard and yes, it still feels foreign and India still feels home❤️. Making real friends is struggle too.
I have commented this here before too, you are a way way way better youtuber than any others , no matter how big their number is. Your content is real, relatable and creative! 💕 Your videos might be late, but they are so crisp, so clean, full of information and absolutely beautifully edited! Keep it up Pooja, been following you since you moved to Canada, so yes 2.5 years 🤍
Totally relatable! I'm in the US and I'd add a layer of immigration uncertainty to the cons. People are always busy, real friends are rare, the distance and being away from family sucks and never gets too easy, but the pros you stated are true...including great infrastructure, lesser pollution and more accessible nature to explore ! This video was well made ...the first part was really well done before the pros and cons bit. You shot and edited it well and the voice over went perfectly!
This video was soooo relatable. I was in the process of moving to Canada when I came across your channel. It was kind of cool to see you reflect in the video because it took me back to those times as well in each clip. When I was trying to learn as much as I could about Toronto and Canada in general. You helped me acquaint myself with Toronto and it's incredible to see how far you have come. I always find new places, new restaurants and much more in your videos. They're incredible suggestions btw. I always feel at home when I watch your videos and so I hope you keep going and do what you love. 💕
There are 2 main reasons why I watch your videos,first tha way you speak ❤️❤️ love it, like a native English speaker. Secondly Tha way u make videos omg every thing is so fun and informative. I'm watching your videos since when you went to Bali with your family. Love love Pooja. Forget the the haters. (कुछ तो लोग कहेंगे, लोगों का काम है कहना)
Hi Pooja, I caught you in TH-cam on day number one, when you arrived in Canada. Since then I look forward to, what you have to say in every episode. About those who do not like your videos, for what ever reasons they can choose, there are so many videos where they can fit themselves in. My children who also will enter this country [by Express Entry] but got delayed by Covid, I could picture their lives through you. As you say everyone is different, circumstances are different but many values will be similar. So go on with your life, document it, not thinking much about those who cannot fit into the lifestyle and life you lead, good luck
I"ve started to watch your videos since the day you left India to move to Canada. I have really enjoy your content. Don"t pay any attention to bad comments, cause you are doing a great job!!
Thank you so much for sharing this!! ❤️ No one’s life is the same. There will always be people who try to put you down but as long as you are doing what you believe is right and that you are happy, then keeping doing what you are doing.
Realising I have been with you since the beginning.... You have been through a lot and have grown s lot and look forward to you accomplishing your goals
Hi Pooja, thank you for making these type of videos. I am now in process for moving to Canada and, you sharing your story in such a realistic way made me realize I am still making the right decision and feel prepared for what this new chapter will be. Really thank you, with your videos everyone that watches your videos can get your perspective of how's life in the Big North. I haven been coming across your videos for some time now and it's amazing how much you've grown and how good your editing and videos have gotten. Keep it up and again, thank you!
The busy schedule is true in every country. Be it India or outside. When both partners are working and managing house at the same time, people tend to be very busy. But i also feel making time for friends is also about priorities. If your friend is your priority you will make time for that person ! Also, that's a trait you should look out for when making friends. 😊
Good or bad.. whatever it has been you have travelled your journey with all your best efforts put into it. And it reflects well in your videos every time 👏👏👏👏 This video was very much needed!!!
I absolutely LOVE this video and witnessing your growth/journey. I found your channel just getting travel ideas in Canada. I looked up Toronto and boom your video popped up. So glad I found your video, you are truly a great content creator. Keep you the great work and keep living your amazing life. I’m Misty currently living in Houston, Texas!! 🇺🇸
So first of all, hello Pooja!♥️ And, happy belated birthday to you.🥂 I have been part of your journey since like the trip of your Bali.✨ So, I know how hard you have worked to reach here. Struggle is everywhere starting from student life then job. But, it feels good to see you happy now enjoying your life and not stressing about that 9-5 job! I wish you all the best and keep creating amazing content...❄️♥️
Such a nice video. Have been following your channel since 2 years. Having moved to a different country from India 5 years back, your journey feels personal and represents the highs and lows of the journey as an immigrant. Keep shining :)
Pooja your videos are amazing and inspirational. I am happy you have pursued your passion because you are amazing at it. Your journey in Canada is personalised and you shouldn't be forced to live a life according people's perspective of what "immigrant" lifestyle should be like. Keep living in the moment and enjoying your life to maximum.
Hi Pooja, I can totally relate to this, I’ve been living in Budapest since almost a year now and I miss my family so much, and when I went back after just 8 months, it was overwhelming.. As much I love the independence and standard of living abroad, nothing beats warmth of Home. ❤️
I have been watching ur vlogs from the time u were packing to leave India. I have seen your whole journey for the past 2 1/2 years. I have seen how u broke down missing your family and how you struggled to live ur job to follow ur passion. There are few utubers I watch after sometime I find they are not as passionate as before and there vlogs become boring and fake . Even with ur once a week vlogs are great since u put in a lot of effort and add a lot of value to it that I enjoy watching it. People are normally very judgemental and compare their lifestyles to others. Unfortunately when u moved to Canada u attracted a different type of subscribers. Just keep doing what you are doing in the long run u will succeed with the right minded subscribes. Canada has become ur adopted country in a few years time u will feel totally at home once u are fully settled.
Keep up the great job. You addressed these comments with grace and a true testament to your character. You are right, everyone has their own journey and stories. This is your journey and YOUR story. Celebrate all of your success, rightfully earned. Learn from your struggles, in short just keep continue being you. You got here on your own merit.
Hi Pooja! I love your videos. Ofcourse your videos show how you live, doesn't have to be what others doing. I really enjoy watching your videos. Sometimes they are inspiring. Lots of love for you and Saranch.
You'e hit 113k. You get a lot of sponsors, your videos & content keep getting better & better. You will hit 150k soon and then 200k......and we will be so happy for you.
i came to canada expecting myself to have a stable career from a major i picked in college but then i met awful people in college and my teacher bullied me. it made me hate my major and then the pandemic happened and during my time in the pandemic, i quit my major and decided to focus on other passions of mine. i now feel like i’ve done a lot of bucket list memories so far which i’ve always wanted to do that would’ve held me back if i had a stable job. i also don’t have any friends because i can’t trust people here, i don’t like foreigners.
Canada has a very, very significant and visible Indian community, probably the highest numbers of immigrants in Canada are Indians, followed by Filipinos and Chinese. This is very obvious when walking down the street, the stores also offer a great variety of Asian products and foods as well as services that cater to this minority. The reality is that Indians will have an easier time integrating in Canada than other minorities due to a sense of community. Their presence is definitely unmistakable in Canada.
Have been following u since u first posted your Canada vlog. Won't say "inspirational" but I would say you give everyone a ray of hope. Keep working hard and all the best to u..
Oh my god! "THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO SO FAR". Jogging down the memory lane of your journey made me realized why I like you you so much. It is very difficult to move to a different country away from dear ones. Hope you get more subscribers who would truly appreciate your hard work and get some inspiration from your work that you are doing. more love and power to you peekapoo❤️
The video was so true .. I feel exactly the same . I am a doctor finishing my training in the USA . Haven’t seen my family for 3 years because of duties and pandemic. I feel you . Also let me know if you in Miami anytime soon. Me and my husband are like you guys. Trying to dig out everything here in a new country.
I echo 500% the positives and negatives, missing family and cooking are big missing points for me too. It does not get better with time, u just get used to life this way and accept the reality is here and now.
Pooja, you literally describe my life when you said you have not done any chores, cooking, groceries, etc. But i still want to move to Canada and FINALLy start being independent and live my life. You inspire me and i'm sure so many of your viewers too whether it is to move to Canada or to purse the dreams, passion in life. Thank you for your vlogs. Super proud of you for how far you have come. And mostly, you have found a very supportive husband and you are very lucky :) Be safe and happy
His Pooja! Honestly, I was able to relate to every part of your vlog. This was super emotional yet inspiring to keep doing better in your life. Living here in Canada and overcoming challenges daily makes you miss your family even more, which is quite understandable as I live here in Canada too. Hope you shine brighter with each passing day. Good Luck!
U ll be fine with time..just keep loving people u meet here...we all love our family n miss them too...here we get to choose a new one .. 😊our 2nd home n 2nd family who we can love from all our heart ✨
I agree with all your points 😊 My immediate family is here in Canada with me but my extended family is back home in Africa. Canada has its good and bad but the opportunities are plenty. Also, customer service here is better than back home, most times.
Just go with the flow follow your dreams!!!!! 💜💜💜Your story surely inspire us to just work hard ho with flow and you will surely achieve your dreams ♥️♥️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Pooja, I really appreciate your hard work and getting yourself to a certain point where you can say yes, we have achieved so much. Gratitude is the best part of yours. It seems like an explained version of Canada's life while watching your videos. I hope many fans of yours want to see a video of yours on how you make videos and edit them in a very beautiful & well-explained way. I would love to see you helping newbies to get themselves into the vlogging world. Kudos and thanks for the great memories.
Oh my god you journey made me so emotional right now. I started to follow you from the day you post the vlog your first day in canada. And trust me i really enjoyed your all videos and this is my first time that i comment on your video bcz it’s made me so emotional and happy. ❤️lots of love for you.
Hey Pooja, I totally connected with your video. What I feel is now-a-days, some people feel till the time you are not just struggling, eg. not going out anywhere, thinking of buying a coffee/food, or if you are not doing 2 jobs as an immigrant, you are not struggling. But I totally feel you. And you are totally amazing and doing great. Lots of love
Your story is so beautiful and your work is so amazing. Well done on such a great job. You are super talented!!!👏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾🇿🇦💝 Tons of love from South Africa.
I am a newcomer to Canada. For some weird reasons i can't relate to most of the things in this video lol. But that is the point, we all have different lives and different stories. . As for the people commenting that you showing the rosy picture, it is not that u show the rosy picture alone, it is about how you handle the difficulties of life that makes u such an icredibly inspiring person - despite your disclaimer that it is not ur intention. Hat is why your videos seem rosy. You inspires me because u r so original and i love it. Oh and as a newcomer who had previously watched your videos before moving to Canada, many things in toronto were familiar to me because of you ♥️ So, Thank you. I hope i bump into you some day 😍
Hi Pooja, You are absolutely right with every point that you mentioned. There is always this unsettled feeling when you move to a country and I have experienced this twice in my life and still experiencing everyday. I hope things will really get better as we all move on in life and there will be a day when we will be proud of ourselves to have made this decision in life. Wishing you and Saransh good luck and good times together. Cheers!
Honestly, everyday in Canada is a struggle. People come here to have a great life but unfortunately the kind of life we live here gives no time to enjoy..it only becomes difficult with kids 😀
Lit vlog ! I must say the decision you've taken to quit your job & follow your passion is not at all easy, kudos for that.In long run it'll certainly pay you off.
11:16, this part just bought me to tears. I’m going through a tough time as well, I feel miserable. Sometimes I wonder why I wake up in the morning and for what purpose. I’m happy that you found what you love❤️
What a great video it was. Glad to see you talking about the Good and the Bad things about Canada. I love watching your videos. Keep up the good work and hope your channel grows day by day !!!
First of all..people gonna pluck bad thoughts or demotivates you whatever and however you make good content. So just don't bother them much...and next month I'm moving to Canada 🇨🇦 for my studies so from now onwards I can feel everything you said and I totally agree.😇 Honestly I got tears in my eyes while watching u crying 🥺 but I also know that everything is all worth it..l loved the way you shared everything..you are the bestest😍❤ And head's off to your editing 💯😎 Lots of love ❤
Hey Pooja I am following u since ur 30k subscribers. Over these years ur editing skills have improved very much now editing results in video looks some pro editor have did. Love ur narrating way about things.. 😍u r doing amazing well
Beautiful video Pooja.. loved the screenplay and script of how you’ve presented this video… of how you’ve shared your journey over the past 2 years 😊 your struggles, your achievements, your decision to follow your passion ❤️🥰 Keep up the spirit and don’t let the negative remarks affect you. Your struggles are real too and you don’t have to worry about explaining yourself and your decisions, to others. You are living your life how you want and that is the way to live not how people expect you to live.. Love watching your videos❤️ your content is great .. More power to you 🥰😊
U know sis😍🥰 I used to come here to learning SPEAKING ,you have been using complex sentences ♥️what all i wanted,so i decided to watch this channel....when I have my IELTS exam that on last week tq
Hi Pooja thank you for sharing your life l enjoy your videos and this one in particular was very encouraging, l needed to watch that and be reminded of how much we need to appreciate the little things in life. All the best in your future endeavors and l look forward to watching all your videos. Sending you lots of love from Africa!!
I like seeing your videos. The production quality is immaculate and watching your videos gives me hope that I too can immigrate to Canada and have a good life. But seriously the production of your videos is always a show stealer. Amazing job on that. 👍❤️
Love this videos beginning the way you tell, I am an immigrant to Canada and my life looks different than you but it’s extremely inspiring the way you do videos and I love the way you express ❤keep going 🎉😘
You are wonderful !! Trust me you font give false hope rather you inspire us to follow our dreams even if it is moving to Canada or following your passion ! 💜💜 keep doing what you do ✨
Pooja - the problem is a lot of Indian PR/students to Canada who are TH-camrs have kinda similar videos and content. Walmart/Dollarama, apartment/house hunt, PR stuff etc etc. Also they do a lot of videos regarding PR related content, jobs in certain cities, provinces - it's kinda repetitive in most cases. That's what a lot of people who are interested in Canada (whether they are planning to apply to go there or not) expect.

So true !!
Excuse me Sir/Madam
Are you saved?
If you died tonight are you going to heaven?
Heaven is real and hell is real
You made me tear up Pooja. I came to Canada as a student, have a job now and have started my own digital venture too. I am new to all this and sometimes it gets too much, but then I remember that nothing comes easy. Your passion needs hardwork and sacrifice. 🌸
Agreed! Good luck with your new venture. I am going to subscribe 😊
Keep working hard. Enjoy the process and don't focus on the outcome. You will be in a better mental space
I migrated to Canada in 1987, still an Indian of 1987 at heart. Eventhough India has also moved on. I totally understand and identify with your journey thus far in Canada. Just keep going with this enthusiasm and motivation. You are headed in the right direction.

Hey can you share how to apply for government job here?
@@ankitatrivedi6452 I applied on the website directly .
Wow i feel so proud of you !!
@@smitaprakash name of website???
@@tuigcsrgh what do you mean name of website. Only u will know what department you are qualified for for.
Even after living overseas more than two decades I miss my family everyday. That will never go and that’s ok. Put effort into making good friends and that will make it so much easier and homely! The more you make housework as part of your life it gets easier. Believe me keeps one active and fit more than going to gym 😀
Pooja, I don't think you should even be bothered about petty comments. Your you tube channel is one of the best! Rehana
Love how far you've come❤ been following since the pandemic started.
Unfortunately people will always box you as an "immigrant" and expect you to be suffering and complaining instead of thriving
even though i’m grateful for all the bucket list memories canada has offered me, it makes me feel a sense of satisfaction that if i ever go back to my country i’ll feel complete.
I don't know why I have tears.. People just see one side of life
Every person life is different and unique.. Love watching your videos❤

Hi Pooja, I caught you in TH-cam on day number one, when you arrived in Canada. Since then I look forward to, what you have to say in every episode. About those who do not like your videos, for what ever reasons they can choose, there are so many videos where they can fit themselves in. My children who also will enter this country [by Express Entry] but got delayed by Covid, I could picture their lives through you. As you say everyone is different, circumstances are different but many values will be similar. So go on with your life, document it, not thinking much about those who cannot fit into the lifestyle and life you lead, good luck
You do not need to justify yourself. Love your videos. Keep following your passion!!!
I"ve started to watch your videos since the day you left India to move to Canada. I have really enjoy your content. Don"t pay any attention to bad comments, cause you are doing a great job!!
Thank you so much for sharing this!! ❤️
No one’s life is the same. There will always be people who try to put you down but as long as you are doing what you believe is right and that you are happy, then keeping doing what you are doing.
Realising I have been with you since the beginning.... You have been through a lot and have grown s lot and look forward to you accomplishing your goals
Hi Pooja, thank you for making these type of videos. I am now in process for moving to Canada and, you sharing your story in such a realistic way made me realize I am still making the right decision and feel prepared for what this new chapter will be. Really thank you, with your videos everyone that watches your videos can get your perspective of how's life in the Big North. I haven been coming across your videos for some time now and it's amazing how much you've grown and how good your editing and videos have gotten. Keep it up and again, thank you!
The busy schedule is true in every country. Be it India or outside. When both partners are working and managing house at the same time, people tend to be very busy.
But i also feel making time for friends is also about priorities. If your friend is your priority you will make time for that person ! Also, that's a trait you should look out for when making friends. 😊
Good or bad.. whatever it has been you have travelled your journey with all your best efforts put into it. And it reflects well in your videos every time 👏👏👏👏 This video was very much needed!!!
I absolutely LOVE this video and witnessing your growth/journey. I found your channel just getting travel ideas in Canada. I looked up Toronto and boom your video popped up. So glad I found your video, you are truly a great content creator. Keep you the great work and keep living your amazing life. I’m Misty currently living in Houston, Texas!! 🇺🇸
Believe me, you’ll appreciate this sacrifice and following your passion in future :)
So first of all, hello Pooja!♥️
And, happy belated birthday to you.🥂
I have been part of your journey since like the trip of your Bali.✨
So, I know how hard you have worked to reach here.
Struggle is everywhere starting from student life then job.
But, it feels good to see you happy now enjoying your life and not stressing about that 9-5 job!
I wish you all the best and keep creating amazing content...❄️♥️
Such a nice video. Have been following your channel since 2 years. Having moved to a different country from India 5 years back, your journey feels personal and represents the highs and lows of the journey as an immigrant. Keep shining :)
Pooja your videos are amazing and inspirational. I am happy you have pursued your passion because you are amazing at it. Your journey in Canada is personalised and you shouldn't be forced to live a life according people's perspective of what "immigrant" lifestyle should be like. Keep living in the moment and enjoying your life to maximum.
Hi Pooja,
I can totally relate to this, I’ve been living in Budapest since almost a year now and I miss my family so much, and when I went back after just 8 months, it was overwhelming..
As much I love the independence and standard of living abroad, nothing beats warmth of Home. ❤️
I have been watching ur vlogs from the time u were packing to leave India. I have seen your whole journey for the past 2 1/2 years. I have seen how u broke down missing your family and how you struggled to live ur job to follow ur passion. There are few utubers I watch after sometime I find they are not as passionate as before and there vlogs become boring and fake . Even with ur once a week vlogs are great since u put in a lot of effort and add a lot of value to it that I enjoy watching it. People are normally very judgemental and compare their lifestyles to others. Unfortunately when u moved to Canada u attracted a different type of subscribers. Just keep doing what you are doing in the long run u will succeed with the right minded subscribes. Canada has become ur adopted country in a few years time u will feel totally at home once u are fully settled.
Keep up the great job. You addressed these comments with grace and a true testament to your character. You are right, everyone has their own journey and stories. This is your journey and YOUR story. Celebrate all of your success, rightfully earned. Learn from your struggles, in short just keep continue being you. You got here on your own merit.
You are both each other's blessing
Hi Pooja! I love your videos. Ofcourse your videos show how you live, doesn't have to be what others doing. I really enjoy watching your videos. Sometimes they are inspiring. Lots of love for you and Saranch.
You'e hit 113k. You get a lot of sponsors, your videos & content keep getting better & better. You will hit 150k soon and then 200k......and we will be so happy for you.
i came to canada expecting myself to have a stable career from a major i picked in college but then i met awful people in college and my teacher bullied me. it made me hate my major and then the pandemic happened and during my time in the pandemic, i quit my major and decided to focus on other passions of mine. i now feel like i’ve done a lot of bucket list memories so far which i’ve always wanted to do that would’ve held me back if i had a stable job. i also don’t have any friends because i can’t trust people here, i don’t like foreigners.
LMAOOOO theres good people here just hard to find
I love this video 🥹 we are also moving to Canada very soon. I am scared but excited at the same time. You really are an inspiration 🤍
Canada has a very, very significant and visible Indian community, probably the highest numbers of immigrants in Canada are Indians, followed by Filipinos and Chinese. This is very obvious when walking down the street, the stores also offer a great variety of Asian products and foods as well as services that cater to this minority. The reality is that Indians will have an easier time integrating in Canada than other minorities due to a sense of community. Their presence is definitely unmistakable in Canada.
Have been following u since u first posted your Canada vlog. Won't say "inspirational" but I would say you give everyone a ray of hope. Keep working hard and all the best to u..
Oh my god! "THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO SO FAR". Jogging down the memory lane of your journey made me realized why I like you you so much. It is very difficult to move to a different country away from dear ones. Hope you get more subscribers who would truly appreciate your hard work and get some inspiration from your work that you are doing. more love and power to you peekapoo❤️
Ya it was a great flash back. Every vlog of hers is full of life.
I’VE BEEN LIVING IN CANADA FOR 3 YEARS NOW AND I STILL WISH TO GO BACK TO MY HOMELAND. 😭
The video was so true .. I feel exactly the same . I am a doctor finishing my training in the USA . Haven’t seen my family for 3 years because of duties and pandemic. I feel you . Also let me know if you in Miami anytime soon. Me and my husband are like you guys. Trying to dig out everything here in a new country.
Figure*
this is why i’m planning on getting married and settling down in my homeland. because marriage abroad just seems so depressing.
I echo 500% the positives and negatives, missing family and cooking are big missing points for me too. It does not get better with time, u just get used to life this way and accept the reality is here and now.
Pooja, you literally describe my life when you said you have not done any chores, cooking, groceries, etc. But i still want to move to Canada and FINALLy start being independent and live my life. You inspire me and i'm sure so many of your viewers too whether it is to move to Canada or to purse the dreams, passion in life. Thank you for your vlogs. Super proud of you for how far you have come. And mostly, you have found a very supportive husband and you are very lucky :) Be safe and happy
Very well put!! Some of the drawbacks mentioned resonates with me so much! Love your videos! Keep it going!
Dont worry we all will be together and we will be supporting you no matter what happens love u❤
You are able to do that mainly because you have a very understanding and supportive partner
His Pooja! Honestly, I was able to relate to every part of your vlog. This was super emotional yet inspiring to keep doing better in your life. Living here in Canada and overcoming challenges daily makes you miss your family even more, which is quite understandable as I live here in Canada too. Hope you shine brighter with each passing day. Good Luck!
Amazing emotional video…I came to canada at the same time as you n when i found your channel back then i have never missed a video of yours ❤❤
U ll be fine with time..just keep loving people u meet here...we all love our family n miss them too...here we get to choose a new one
.. 😊our 2nd home n 2nd family who we can love from all our heart ✨
Aaaamazing journey!!! May your future be bright and colorfullll
I agree with all your points 😊 My immediate family is here in Canada with me but my extended family is back home in Africa. Canada has its good and bad but the opportunities are plenty. Also, customer service here is better than back home, most times.
Just go with the flow follow your dreams!!!!! 💜💜💜Your story surely inspire us to just work hard ho with flow and you will surely achieve your dreams ♥️♥️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Pooja, I really appreciate your hard work and getting yourself to a certain point where you can say yes, we have achieved so much. Gratitude is the best part of yours. It seems like an explained version of Canada's life while watching your videos. I hope many fans of yours want to see a video of yours on how you make videos and edit them in a very beautiful & well-explained way. I would love to see you helping newbies to get themselves into the vlogging world.
Kudos and thanks for the great memories.
Oh my god you journey made me so emotional right now. I started to follow you from the day you post the vlog your first day in canada. And trust me i really enjoyed your all videos and this is my first time that i comment on your video bcz it’s made me so emotional and happy. ❤️lots of love for you.
Hey Pooja, I totally connected with your video. What I feel is now-a-days, some people feel till the time you are not just struggling, eg. not going out anywhere, thinking of buying a coffee/food, or if you are not doing 2 jobs as an immigrant, you are not struggling. But I totally feel you. And you are totally amazing and doing great. Lots of love
I love watching your videos. It feels like we are having a face to face conversation. And the way you present your videos it's just mindblowing
Your story is so beautiful and your work is so amazing. Well done on such a great job. You are super talented!!!👏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾🇿🇦💝 Tons of love from South Africa.
I am a newcomer to Canada. For some weird reasons i can't relate to most of the things in this video lol. But that is the point, we all have different lives and different stories.
.
As for the people commenting that you showing the rosy picture, it is not that u show the rosy picture alone, it is about how you handle the difficulties of life that makes u such an icredibly inspiring person - despite your disclaimer that it is not ur intention. Hat is why your videos seem rosy.
You inspires me because u r so original and i love it.
Oh and as a newcomer who had previously watched your videos before moving to Canada, many things in toronto were familiar to me because of you ♥️
So, Thank you. I hope i bump into you some day 😍
I came in canada in 2007 but still miss india. I totally relate to everything u mentioned
I love your content. Watching you is like looking in a mirror, I can’t begin to tell you how many similarities I have with you. Girl I feel you!
Hi Pooja, You are absolutely right with every point that you mentioned. There is always this unsettled feeling when you move to a country and I have experienced this twice in my life and still experiencing everyday. I hope things will really get better as we all move on in life and there will be a day when we will be proud of ourselves to have made this decision in life. Wishing you and Saransh good luck and good times together. Cheers!
Honestly, everyday in Canada is a struggle. People come here to have a great life but unfortunately the kind of life we live here gives no time to enjoy..it only becomes difficult with kids 😀
Thanks for your true statement. I miss my family so much although I am not permanent here I can’t stay even a single day I feel so alone and homesick
Nice vlog!! We also immigrated to Canada recently . This is reality here.
Lit vlog ! I must say the decision you've taken to quit your job & follow your passion is not at all easy, kudos for that.In long run it'll certainly pay you off.
11:16, this part just bought me to tears. I’m going through a tough time as well, I feel miserable. Sometimes I wonder why I wake up in the morning and for what purpose. I’m happy that you found what you love❤️
It's going to be okay, please give it some time. Do things you love doing. God be with you.
Trust me it's gona be ok.. u can take it from a person who had bad experiences for a while 🧿🌈🌈 god is great!
I feel the same here, a lack of motivation, happiness and will to do anything
What a great video it was. Glad to see you talking about the Good and the Bad things about Canada.
I love watching your videos. Keep up the good work and hope your channel grows day by day !!!
Your journey in Canada - Have Rich parents who pay for everything even when you quit your job
First of all..people gonna pluck bad thoughts or demotivates you whatever and however you make good content. So just don't bother them much...and next month I'm moving to Canada 🇨🇦 for my studies so from now onwards I can feel everything you said and I totally agree.😇
Honestly I got tears in my eyes while watching u crying 🥺 but I also know that everything is all worth it..l loved the way you shared everything..you are the bestest😍❤ And head's off to your editing 💯😎
Lots of love ❤
Pooja a very good presentation. You are a very positive person. Wish you all the happiness in Canada as an immigrant and later on as a citizen.
Hey Pooja I am following u since ur 30k subscribers. Over these years ur editing skills have improved very much now editing results in video looks some pro editor have did. Love ur narrating way about things.. 😍u r doing amazing well
Beautiful video Pooja.. loved the screenplay and script of how you’ve presented this video… of how you’ve shared your journey over the past 2 years 😊 your struggles, your achievements, your decision to follow your passion ❤️🥰 Keep up the spirit and don’t let the negative remarks affect you. Your struggles are real too and you don’t have to worry about explaining yourself and your decisions, to others. You are living your life how you want and that is the way to live not how people expect you to live.. Love watching your videos❤️ your content is great .. More power to you 🥰😊
Amazing video! So relatable to all who have moved abroad away from their family. Thank you for this ❤️
Wooooo. What a story ❤️🔥 Be happy in every moment. Because it's never happens again like that way 😘
