This weekend was full of different activities. Some people spent their time together, some enjoyed the first few days on their own e.g. at a lake, in Toronto at a concert, or elsewhere outdoors in the sun.
A few INTERNeXers went to a line dance lesson at The Yale Saloon. It takes place every Friday, so hopefully we will be there more often! The lesson was from 7pm to 9pm and everybody 19+ could join for free. Afterwards there was a party at the same location where you can show your new practiced dance moves besides other performances, like bull riding.
Saturday some of us enjoyed the nice weather at the beach, some strolled through the city or went shopping. In the evening we celebrated the 1 year anniversary of one of our INTERNeXers Stelle!! It took place at a beautiful restaurant at the Shipyards in North Vancouver close to the water and with an amazing sunset in the background. We had lots of good conversations, food and drinks.
Our weekend event turned out sooo good. Yeah, it was a photo scavenger hunt!
Stay tuned for the upcoming video on instagram and tiktok to see some results! If you’re not following already, just do it, also to be up to date. First, we have to say that it was so hard to choose the winner of this contest, but it wasn’t impossible. Let’s start at the beginning: we all started at the INTERNeX office and randomly put together two groups for the scavenger hunt. Both groups got a sheet with different tasks on it e.g. building a human pyramid, solving a quiz about INTERNeX and taking a picture with an animal. Some took it a bit too seriously and they went all in for it – one bird wanted to be part of their photo and decided to dispose of their (pardon me) sh** on all of them which you recognize on their white stained clothes 🤣. Nevertheless after the hunt we all met at a pizza place where there is a big wall with lots of board games. We started playing immediately and ordered a few drinks with our delicious food. This was a nice way to end the weekend.
Cheers,
Anna & Chiara 🙂
Today it is time for me to say ‘Goodbye’ to everyone. I stayed in Vancouver now for two months, at INTERNeX for one month. The time in Vancouver is gone so fast; it feels like I am just arrived. However, I had an amazing time in Vancouver, thank you all for this! I will go back home with a lot of new experiences and I am sure that I will never forget this great time in Canada, it really impressed me.
The most impressed trip in Vancouver was definitely my trip to the Rocky Mountains for almost four days. I have never seen such an amazing nature like this before. I really hope to be able to go there again, if you did not go there before, you really shouldn’t miss it! But there were also some more trips which were really cool; of course the Grouse Mountain with the Grouse Grind, the hike on Bowen Island, to see whales in nature or just every single PuB NiGHT which was always fun. Actually every single day was an amazing day in Vancouver!
