Well, my summer in Vancouver and at Canfor is coming to an end and I can’t say I am happy about it. I can easily report this has been one of the best summers I have ever had. Getting to experience Vancouver and all it has to offer has been amazing. I feel very at home in this city and am not looking forward to leaving.

Everyone looks forward to Fridays, but at the head office in Vancouver at Canfor, the day is extra special. This is because we have Food Truck Fridays! Every week a different food truck comes and provides us with a variety of healthy options for lunch.

I have a feeling most recent graduates will be able to relate when I say I couldn’t wait to be finished with my post-secondary education. No more papers, midterms, finals, and – my personal pet peeve – homework. University is nothing like a part-time job where when your shift is over, you go home and don’t have to think about it.

You spend the summer in Vancouver for the first time ever and not cram your weekends with tourist-like activities. A few weeks ago my friend and I decided it would be fun to explore some of Vancouver’s favorite attractions. The Capilano Suspension Bridge was our first stop and what a cool experience that was.

During my second week at Canfor I got a chance to sit with our Talent Acquisition (TA) team. At first I was a little upset that I had to leave my desk in Learning & Leadership because I had my own phone with my name on it, which I thought was really cool (it’s the little things in life right?).

After four years of writing essays during my time in university, I never would have believed I would be a summer blogger. What an exciting opportunity it is to share my summer experience of living in Vancouver and working as a Human Resource intern at Canfor with all of you readers.
