"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Hey guys,

I live in London, UK and for my uni summer holidays i would like to get a job in Canada, namely Vancouver. I'm not too bothered what the job would be, i'm more interested in living in Canada for maybe a month or two, and getting a taste of the culture.

Do any of you have details on how i'd go about this? Useful websites, advice based on your own experience of something similar, etc.

Thanks,

apache
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

That looks good but seems very expensive, did you find that the work you did covered to cost of booking with them?

Aswell as earning the cost of getting there and back it would be nice to save some money up for my next year of uni.

I got a student loan and never paid it back :)

awesome experiance tho man...I ended up buying a month long grayhound ticket and bumming all the way around the states with all the freaks and weirdos.

slept on the bus most nights, I was only 18.


I don't know how hard it is to get a visa for Canada...but America is almost impossible. Canada might be better with the commonwealth and everything...
