Canadian

 I have been impressed for Canadian's kindness.

 Actually I am a slob person, so I often lose something, forget something and so on.
2 weeks ago, I lost my phone for the second time in a row.

 First, I lost in the University. After sent off my friends at the bus station to got my room, I seemed losing it.  I always put my phone in a pocket on my coat. After I realized that I did not have it, I went to seek it, but then no one took it to lost found office at University center. Then I was not able to find my phone at the time. But after I got my room, my host father sent me a massage "someone found your phone, and she or he will take it University center."
 Next day, it was taken there. I really appreciate that.

 And the next week, I lost my phone again. I went Korean store and went my friend's house by bus. When I leave the house at night, I realized that I lost it. My friends guessed the losing point was in the buss.But I noticed that I touched my phone when I got off the bus station a nearby Korean store. And since I was a child I have a habit to check my seat before I get off train, car buss, anything, so I was pretty sure that I did not lose it in the bus.  Then I pulled my memory, I recalled that after I and my friends had run a nearby Korean store because we almost miss our bus. So I went to the Korean store again after I left my friend's place, but it was not there.
 I gave up about it. But about 5 days later, I got information about it from my host father again.
Someone found it, and the person has been keeping, and told me a telephone number. I called the number and I talked to a man. He was very kind, and he told me that his daughter found it a nearby Korean store. He told me house address, it was near my residence. I went to there. and she gave me it!!! I gave her a STARBUCKS coffee card. I really appreciated.

 As a other experience, a woman had given me small coins when I bought a juice by machine at school. Did I look like poor?, but I heard it is not unusual.

 I think Canadian people are very very kind!! Do you have any experiences like that?

  1. Wow nice stories! I think Canada it's an amazing place to loose things!, I loved that whenever someone loses something people always put it in a visible place so if the person comebacks it won't have trouble looking for it :)).

    When I changed to homestay, I didn't know how to get university, and then an old woman helped me and waited a bus with me even it was cold day.
