It's been difficult to explain to others why we are attempting to migrate to Canada.

Because of a slower pace of life?

—— "But Singapore is efficient."

Because we fell in love with Canada?

—— "But other countries are nearer."

Because we want to be close to nature?

—— "But Singapore is convenient"

Because we don't like population density?

—— "But Singapore is safe, and your family is here."

That last one especially is a tough pickle.

But Why migrate Now?

Because here we are, 2 years of planning, calculating and recalculating the numbers, adapting and adjusting to curveballs, trying to have both faith and good sense, and dealing with sensitive airline restrictions in the midst of Covid-19. We haven’t come so far to let a pandemic stand in our way.

We don't know if we will be successful or if we will be happy, only that we should at least take a damn good shot at it while we can!
