It was my first time going the country, and I was excited. The summer of Saudi was hot, and I couldnt stop thought process ab aside going a look for the first time. My family and friends were helping me pack the hold out of my luggage, and I was on my way to the airdrome. As I made my way through the gates and into the plane, I could never imagine the experiences that were to come. It all started with my airport and Canadian immigration services, then meeting my host family and the people of Canada, and brook but not least the school experience. As I go away Saudi Arabia, it was a bittersweet feeling. I left from Riyadh to Vancouver via London. My experience at the airport in London for the first time was really difficult.

All my friends were with me to say their net good byes because it was my first time leaving alone. Before I got on the plane, I me t a new friend who I didnt veritable(a) know would end up at the same university as me in Canada. Its a small manhood because I did not necessitate this. We became good friends and our friendship continues until today. When I arrived at Heathrow airport in London, I felt this empty feeling, like I was missing something already.

Then I became nervous because I didnt know what to do. I was praying that somebody would be able to help me.

My experience of leaving Saudi Arabia has made me a better person. Of course at the beginning it was very difficult, but Im glad now that I was able to get a scholarship to study in Canada and learn English. Maybe if I didnt get this opportunity, I would not have met the people I met and get down friends with them. The best thing I can say about leaving my country is that now I have friends from all over the world and I would not change anything for that experience.
