I kiss my mum one last time before I get lost in the flow of tourist running to get their flight. Tonight, I leave for Toronto in order to do a work experience there in a vet clinic. I am so excited to leave for a month and a half, have a whole new life at the other end of the planet, meet new friends ! I am a bit sad of leaving my family and friends behind for such a long time, a bit nervous of losing my habits, but this experience will be so fun ! I turn around to see my parents and my brothers waving at me. I wave back before losing sight of them. My trip has begun! I am leaving for a new life ! At least for a month and a half! I sit down in the boarding room and check once again all the papers in my possession :

Name, Surname : Alyssa Collin

Age : 21

Institution : National Veterinary School of Maisons-Alfort FRANCE

Adress of the company: East Toronto Vet Cinic, Danforth Avenue, Toronto.

I continue reading the countless pages... the adress of my appartment share, the names of the girls with whom I am going to live during my stay. I can't wait to meet them ! I hope they like music as much as I do. I brought my guitar with me and I would like to continue spending my days listening to music.

I dream of discovering the city, walking down the avenues, exploring the gardens and discovering secret places, going shopping with friends I'll meet there !

When the air hostess announces my flight's boarding, I pick up my cat's case in which is Archibald. My parents offered me this beautiful Persian cat when I entered the vet school. I love this cutie so much !

I board the plane, sit at my place and put on my headphones to listen to « Life of the Party » from Shawn Mendes . Each time I listen to this song, my heart melts. As the plane flies over the clouds, I dream of my future husband. How will he be ? He could be a beautiful Australian boy that would sing me this song on the beach... He could be a small French boy that would kiss me at the top of the Eiffel Tower... Who knows ?
