Well, my visa to Canada expires soon, and I must leave the country.
So I thought I'd go for a visit to the States for a couple of weeks.
I'm out of money, so not sure what I'll be doing, but I would like to meet some of you who might be on my way to nowhere.
Maybe Chicago, maybe BY, not sure yet, depends on money, but would love to get some options.
Oh, and if anybody knows of a $5 a night motel, let me know!

Best wishes on your travels

WHOA! Is your final destination Israel?

sucks that it didn't get renewed good luck ariel, i hope you can get back into canada.

So sorry to hear this Ariel I do hope you can get back into Canada.

Rough news Sweetie. Try not to let it keep you down.

That you get to return to Canada.

Teacher said:

me too

check online for hostels in the US, for cheap accomodations if you can't get friends to put you up.

Well, I did request to extend my visa, but it hasn't been approved yet, and if I don't get it in time I have to leave the country. I will of course try and get back in again. Hopefully. If not, I'm stuck in the US with no money or ticket back home.

I hope not. I don't want to go back there
Although I might have to at one point when I do the immigration process. I think it has to go through the country of origin.

ArielB said:

Dammit, I keep telling you - come HERE if you can't get back into Canada right away! I don't want you anywhere NEAR Israel again if we can avoid it!

As a drug mule, I find myself crossing the Canadian-American border often.

Teacher said:

I wouldn't know what do to in Sweden. Not to mention my head got banged enough times from lamp posts, with all you sexy blonds walking the streets.
Then again, I'd really like to see your sister drop her pants in public again

To be honest, I don't think I could handle Europe. I love Toronto, and really want to make it my home.

ArielB said:

we're fuckin' hardcore, that's how we fuckin' roll!

2 weeks isnt a lot. Maybe go to New York and Boston, I dunno.

JDInteractive said:

Yes. I have a former boss who lives in Upstate NY. I'm hoping he would let me stay with him for a few days. Maybe I could even talk to him about opening a recording studio or a music center in Toronto while I'm there.

Two weeks could be a lot, for someone who only has like a couple of hundred bucks

ArielB said:

What's not to handle? and I know you really love Toronto, I just don't want you back in Israel. Besides, you could always get a job in sound engineering here, I'm sure you could.

These days she wears tighter pants though so they don't fall down as much... and besides, you'd need to watch out for her boyfriend Manne

ArielB said:

I can't believe Orgers aren't falling over each other offering to put you up though... it's bothering me.

Teacher said:

I don't know anyone there. and well, everyone thinks I'm a weirdo. I mean, everyone knows I'm a weirdo So I'd be scared if I were them.

Teacher said:

I guess there aren't many in Toronto.....maybe he should call Spats!

ArielB said:

Puhlease They're all much weirder than you are Besides, I survived a whole week with you!

ArielB said:

if i lived on that side of the country you could totally stay with me

Teacher said:

maybe you're a weirdo too?

evenstar3 said:

Thank you, lady.
If I had the money, I'd definitely take the advantage of being in the States to travel and see all the cool people. Maybe my former boss will be kind enough
He actually offered several times to help me finance my visa.
Oooh! Maybe he would help finance my studies! Naa, who am I kidding. $20k is too much to ask for

abierman said:

Of COURSE I'm a weirdo!

ArielB said:

No it's NOT! Not for this guy, promise to come back and work for him some when he needs it if he opens the studio/academy. It won't hurt to ask!! Do it!

Teacher said:

Well his plans of opening a studio were spoiled by the guy who bought the studio in Jerusalem and never actually paid for it.
But I've met with my colleague today, whom I worked with in Jerusalem, and we said "why not suggest to him to open a studio for both of us in Toronto?". Of course we were half kidding, but that's not too bad of an idea.

ArielB said:

Indeed it's not! Do THAT then Please do it, go for it!

First I need to get in touch with him. But with all these Jewish holidays, I can't find the time to call him (we're not allowed to use the phone during religious holidays)
