when a house starts to feel like a home 🥹🏠 thanks for coming along on this journey!!

[@KaTeZaBe]

What is one advice you’ll give I am moving at the end of this month from Oregon to Wisconsin with 4 kids don’t know what to expect?!?!?

[@hotgiial101]

Lived in Van for 3 years, but grew up in Toronto, now moved to Calgary 3 months ago! We had a similar journey haha. Welcome to the city.

[@Celinelikedion]

@@hotgiial101 that is a similar journey indeed! thanks for the warm welcome 🙏 welcome to the city too haha

[@dpledoone]

Looks like you guys are settling in nicely. Yes winters are long and cold, but Sunny! Take the time you need - the hardest part is done…

[@Celinelikedion]

I'll take sunny any day!! thanks for the encouragement 💜

[@francesca0704]

Honestly I,m from Qc , lived in TO and now living in YYC and the winter are way better here than east coast! Enjoy!!

[@Celinelikedion]

@@francesca0704 good to hear!! I found QC winters actually the coldest when I visited 😅

[@markstephen1291]

Aw poor bean 😢 my two frenchies both reverse sneeze 🤧 and the first time it happened I absolutely sh*t myself 😢 I find rubbing their neck and speaking calmly to them helps quite a lot. I know some people also cover the nostrils so they have to open their mouth to breathe (sounds petrifying) but I’m sure it must be safe. Hope your all doing well and loving the latest vlog ❤ cannot wait for the next already! Happy Tuesday from Liverpool UK 🎉

[@Celinelikedion]

thanks Mark 💜 we never saw the reserve sneezing before, so it was alarming but thankfully he’s okay. thanks so much for those tips I’ll keep it in mind if that happens again 🫶 have a great rest of your week!

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Another awesome moving vlog Celine and I am glad it's not me going through moving into a new home. Hopefully the situation with your dog is ok once he has been to the vet. Love 🥰 the vlog and love 💕 Celine.

[@Celinelikedion]

@@davidthescottishvegan thanks so much, David 💖 have a great week!

[@alwaysaik]

Enjoyed the cozy unpacking vlog and hope Mr Bean is feeling much better! So exciting to have family visit and don’t feel bad Celine, our second guest room / office still has boxes .. 3 months later 😅✨

[@Celinelikedion]

this gave me the reassurance I needed 🥹 ahahaha thanks for coming along for this cozy vlog 💓

[@СаянаТен-щ6э]

Omg, I always get so exited when I see your new videos! ❤️

[@Celinelikedion]

Yay! Thank you!

[@LittleGeri]

I've recently done a long distance move to Calgary as well! Unpacking is SUCH a process I didn't realize would take so long and exhaust me so much. I'm glad Bean is okay!

[@Celinelikedion]

it's so easy to underestimate how much time and effort the unpacking/packing process takes 😅 hope you had a smooth move!

[@RenzoStefanoPontexRuiz]

Long time no see, I'm so happy to see you again. Your apartment is very comfortable and The place where you live is awesome. I'm enjoying your video, as always. Thanks.

[@Celinelikedion]

Hey! Re Calgary winter....I loved it for the one winter I was there. Always sunny and calm. Just really cold, but you can dress for that. Re changing licenses between provinces....yeah, Canada is nuts for this. In the last 10 years I moved between NZ, UK and Canada four times, and changing licenses is a real pain in the butt. It's like a mini death when they make me cut up my license....again! :)

[@Celinelikedion]

the sunshine definitely helps! I agree, having appropriate clothing will be my priority next winter. cutting up a license does feel like a mini heartbreak every time with being sentimental too 🥹

[@Nammer403]

Winter in Calgary is not too bad compared to Toronto..dry winters here…Toronto was freezing when I was visiting in December..the water makes a huge difference

[@Celinelikedion]

I’ve heard that too! it’s much drier here so that helps 🙏

[@Rootscogoogleads]

Excited to see it all when your done ❤❤

[@Celinelikedion]

thank you! 🥹💓

[@vonkatheviking]

Welcome to your new home here in Calgary, I'm an immediate sub now, I know what you have gone through to move across the country and it's not an easy move, but we get used to Calgary it grows on you over the years, it's home and I would never go back to Ontario but I miss it there during the summers, I wish we had more trees and water we have the bow River and that's it, it's a culture shock as well, Calgary doesn't have much for a night life being honest and can't wait to see you in your journeys and welcome home to cow town. Peace, love and light your way who have done the long journey and Calgary has a hard housing market you did an amazing job of vlogs ✌️ 💛 🕯️

[@Celinelikedion]

thank you for the warm welcome! 💜 I agree, a cross country move is no small feat but Calgary has treated us well so far 😊

[@rebeccacartier153]

I am by no means a minimalist or an essentialist, but I moved quite a lot when I was younger, and that feeling of packing and unpacking and lugging around way too much stuff was so annoying. You really have to consider what’s a necessity and what’s not..

[@Celinelikedion]

the unpacking and lugging around definitely gets tiring!! many lessons learned after this move hahah

[@CuratedYYC]

Welcome to Calgary!

[@Celinelikedion]

thank you!! 🫶

[@KaylaaHazel]

Watching from the states!! In Ohio lol but the new Apartment looks so nice!! It’s very updated 😍

[@Celinelikedion]

hello to Ohio!! 👋 thanks for following along 🥹

[@Todaywlina]

Every time I watch your vlogs I feel like we are the same person and that's so fun to see LOL also I remembered that you're a Mai Pham fan and that you're in Calgary now, so when I saw that there was an Alchemai pop up shop in Calgary, I instantly thought omg Maybe Celine could meet her and I got so excited for you

[@Celinelikedion]

ahhh omg that's so sweet 🥹🫶 I definitely considered going to the pop up, but I could only imagine how hectic it would've been so decided to skip this one 😩 long lines give me a lil anxiety ahahah but thanks girl, maybe one day!

[@dianebaker5243]

Hope your dog okay now..🥰👍

[@Celinelikedion]

@@dianebaker5243 thank you 🫶🫶 he’s been better after that week thankfully!

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

Hi Celine happy Wednesday morning to you and I enjoy your channel and you are amazing supporter

[@Celinelikedion]

happy Wednesday! thanks for the support 🙏

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

@@Celinelikedion likewise sending you a love ❤️

[@HairTechniques1]

When your dog is reverse sneezing, plug one nostril gently and it should help them get their breathing rhythm back. :)

[@Celinelikedion]

@@HairTechniques1 that’s good to know! thanks so much for the tip 🫶 he’s been good lately but now that I know it’s common for these type of breeds, we’ll just keep a close eye on it

[@LaraA55]

@Celinelikedion Hey Celine🤗 I really loved this down to earth vlog on the realities of moving into a new home. I really felt your concern for Bean and I am so relieved to hear that he is okay😇. I also felt your exhaustion😔. It would have been so wonderful to have your family stay over...all worth it in the end😊. I also hate unpacking and I really have to force myself to do it. How awesome that you are now getting into running which is also what I do daily for an hour. 🤗 I really can't wait to see your videos on Banff and that icecream looked so yummy. 🤩 Cheers Lara🐨🦘

[@Celinelikedion]

hi Lara!! 🫶 honestly moving can be such a roller coaster of emotions, chores, all the things 😅 we're very glad Bean is okay too, seemed to be his way of acclimating to Calgary. family time was very nice, indeed - made the unpacking worth it! haha I'm definitely a beginner runner still, but look forward to sharing more and getting some tips from you guys! 🥹 until next time, take care 🐨

[@LaraA55]

🤗🌷

[@bethanyreid1023]

I’m considering moving to Calgary, and I’d love your opinions on cost of living here vs. Toronto in your experience! I’m curious of your rent and what area you’ve moved to!

[@Celinelikedion]

This is a great idea for future video topics! I’ll keep these in mind

[@davidjym]

Having been through 18 winters in Calgary. I'd say it's not as bad as people say because the air is still relatively dry in wintertime so even -20'C is tolerable if you the right gears. 🤗 Of course there are days of snow events and -35'C cold snaps. But the city does a decent job with snow clearing in the urban areas. And being the sunniest city in Canada helps 😁 Anyways looking forward to your adventures in Alberta !!!

[@Celinelikedion]

the right gear is always so important! yes I’m excited to see more sun at least ☀️ looking forward to sharing more soon 🫶

[@tiffanycave5974]

Ha ha Red deer here. Tiffany Dion. Celine Dion is my 7th cousin 😂❤

[@WhyYouTrippin]

Welcome to Calgary! Have you been to the Stampede yet?

[@Celinelikedion]

@@WhyYouTrippin thank you! we’ll definitely be going :)

[@BrigitteCheong]

Awww I also have a black pug that’s named Bean!

[@Celinelikedion]

Awww such a good pug name 🥹🥹

[@WhyYouTrippin]

omg, I got those same pillows off amazon!

[@Celinelikedion]

they've been great! a pretty good deal too 🙏

[@itsBobtart]

It's so fun watching Caleb Hammer roast his guests. Makes you feel better about your own finances lol.

[@Celinelikedion]

agreed 😂😂

[@zeralynnpanesa7923]

I love love love watching your vlogs!! You stopped in my home town in Winnipeg and I started screaming 😂 I know you’ll love being a Calgarian!

[@Celinelikedion]

@@zeralynnpanesa7923 🥹🫶 thank you so much!! we absolutely loved visiting your hometown

[@p.o.p.presents]

It's coming along and looking good Celine! It looks so bright and hopeful in your space. Continued congratulations on your new chapter. I love that Back to the future shirt and I like the poetic note you ended on. Ok, I'm going across the street to your newest vlog because I'm a little behind. See you in a minute. P o p.

[@Celinelikedion]

thanks a lot, P.o.p! much appreciated 🙏 I figured someone would appreciate the poetic sentiment 🫶 and see you on the other side of the street hahaha

[@709sunshine]

Welcome to Calgary with the most hours of sun in Canada!Seeing you’re from Vancouver you’ll love the amount of sunshine we get and moving from Toronto honestly you will be surprised by the winter. It’s really not that bad. Few days of very very cold but it’s not as bad as many that haven’t lived here think and chinooks add a nice break in winter. I’m originally from the true east of Canada and with the dry air here the cold doesn’t feel as bone chilling as in a humid climate just know you’ll have to moisturize a lot!!! With the mountains so close just get out and enjoy all that Calgary and surrounding areas have to offer. Lived several major cities and been all over Canada due to being airline crew and Calgary is a great place to live. Calgary has been my home for 20+ years and I absolutely love it!!! Hope you do too! Oh n all the moving and settling in to your new place takes time it’s ok to get the basics completed let the rest happen when it happens and just get out relax enjoy the beautiful weather and all the surrounding nature ❤️

[@Celinelikedion]

thanks for the warm welcome! I’m very excited to experience more sun ☀️ definitely don’t miss the Vancouver rain ahah

[@itsamina]

i would 100% also get roasted by caleb hammer lol and girl i'm also terrible at unpacking! i have a suitcase still in my room from a trip i took in early june 💀

[@Celinelikedion]

not me hearing caleb's voice every time I confirm an Amazon order 🥲 I love that for your suitcase bc sameeeeee hahahh

[@ko_grindz]

I hope the new place suits you

[@Celinelikedion]

thank you! 🫶

[@grumblefarm]

Ooohhhh, omg... reverse sneezing - a classic pug trademark 🫠 I remember when my VERY first pug, Jonas, first started doing this - rushed to the emergency vet and spent a couple thousand dollars on oxygen therapy, because it was so incredibly scary, which was COMPLETELY unnecessary lol. I wish someone had told me! About 4783294738927589327589327893275 pugs later (my own, through running a pug rescue, and my clients haha) I realized it's so so so incredibly common. What I do now is hold my thumb gently over their nostrils so that they are guided to take a moment/pause, and eventually take a deep breath in through their mouth. Sometimes I have to do it a few times, but it always passes. If it's chronic, or concerning how often it actually does happen, it could be related to an elongated soft palette, which is also a common pug/brachycephalic thing! I hope you've had a good experience looking for and finding a vet here in Calgary! That was the most STRESSFULL part for us when we relocated to the West Koots, but there are farrrr less resources out there, so it's a bit different. Moving away from your regular vet is always tough! 💙🐾

[@grumblefarm]

update: I saw a few people already suggested this in the comment already 🥰

[@Celinelikedion]

it was a scary first encounter! lessons learned and we'll be better educated next time. thank you for the tips! it was a relief to hear from this community that it's more common than I realized 🥲 there seem to be some great vet options thankfully 🙏 the joys of relocating nonetheless! thanks again for the thoughtful advice 💗

[@grumblefarm]

@@Celinelikedion I was TERRIFIED the first time it happened - it's scary!!! But, now you know and you can pass on the hot tip to the next pug owner you come across who's freaked out about it, haha
