S2E2: Life lessons with Vera Popa

The Immigrant Express podcast returns with a new host joining Jon - welcome Andreea!!! - and a guest that was an absolute pleasure and experience to talk to. We've tried to keep the long story as short as possible but Vera Popa is certainly someone that lived a lot in her past 10-12 years. She went from 0 to 100 and built a successful eye-lash extensions business and her clients vary from celebrities to royals. She's living her new life in London, UK and shared with us her story which is an impressive show of grit and ambition, proving us all that as long as you stay open to what life has ahead for you and you work toward your goals, there's always a small chance that you might achieve those goals. You can find Vera and book her business online, through her website we listed here for you: https://www.i-macula.co.uk/ Enjoy this episode and we promise to come back with more interesting guests and immigrant life stories!

S2E1: Revenanții.

Revenim după o tăcere de mai bine de 2 ani cu un episod cât două în care trăncănim ca două țațe ce nu s-au văzut demult dar suntem mai relevanți decât Gojira de la Happy Fish. Pentru că suntem ruginiți și pentru că noi suntem români, am tras tura asta în română. Dar promitem să revenim la interviuri și pă Engleză. Cei care ați mai rămas pe frecvența Immigrantului Express, vă dorim audiție plăcută! This is a public episode.

Ep. 09: The tribulations of a food lover

Meet Nick B. one of the lads in the 2014 lot, arriving in Canada with Horea and I. Nick loves to travel, loves food, been living on 3 continents so far, maybe 4 if we count that time when he spent a few weeks in Australia, visiting family. He spent a few years in Canada, went back home to Romania but never unpacked truly as his travel bug kept him going. Then work and his adventurous spirit took him to Asia, to an office with a view toward Petronas towers in Kuala Lumpur. He met his "partner in crime" there, married her and he's now living semi-permanently as an ex-pat in Malaysia. But the coolest thing about Nick is that probably his love for food and life might not have him settle there. Yet. He might not be done with the bug. Listen to his immigration story and a few other topics in our 9th episode of season 1 of the Immigrant Express podcast. Soundtrack: Kuey Teow (Official Music Video) by SonaOne featuring Kidd Santhe This is a public episode.

Ep. 08: The gift COVID-19 will give mankind

We have no guest on this September 1st episode. It's just us, your humble hosts, Jon and Horea rambling around and perfecting the art of leaving from "nowhere", taking the "anywhere" highway and getting "somewhere" at exit 45. Kidding aside we wonder what else is in for us this last quarter of 2020 and how will some classic events here in Toronto will take place. We hope you're all fine and well adapted to the new normal wherever you are. Stay tuned, more episodes and fun stuff to come this fall: new episodes, guests, life stories. This is a public episode.

Ep. 05: Pay it forward - with Fabiana Neves

Fabiana (or Fabi how we call her) made her first steps in Canada over 18 years ago. She first landed in Vancouver and as far as we can tell she really liked it there. However, approximately 4 years later she made her way back to Canada, home, as she calls it; here, in Toronto. Fabi lives here for 14 years and she has an absolutely amazing immigrant story with ups and downs like us all but she only mentions the positive aspects, being the fun, positive person she is. Oh, we didn't mention, she comes from São Paulo, that's in Brazil so this week we stay in Latin America still, in terms of our guests.

Ep. 04: Fred Franco, Mexico

Fred F.P. landed here (Canada) in the fall of '97 when he was only 9 years old. He's lived more years in Canada than he did in his natal country, Mexico. We've walked down his memory lane today, digging through what he remembers from his first days in his adoptive country, his highschool years, growing up into the man he is today. He defines Canada as "best" and he's one of those guys that would start a party and energize a whole crowd just by his sole presence and dance moves. He is our immigrant story for this episode.
