Georgia has a very peculiar and very precise charm, and it’s something that is even a little difficult to notice at first.  But the sense starts to grow on you, and it’s very much like the charm of the bee, overwhelming in the sweetness, but not always easy to access the sweetness.  It has a very complicated history that is present everywhere.  There are moments when this is readily apparent, and moments when it’s more hidden, but the things that happened here still resonate very deeply.  The stories of the past and the present are written in the lives of the people, in their words, in their actions, and in the music.

It’s a wonderful opportunity to visit Georgia any time of the year, but February is particularly lively in Savannah, when the commemorations of Black History Month are held.  Hotels are famous here for their generous hospitality, making any stay a memorable one.  With the extraordinary line-up at the Savannah Black Heritage Festival, it’s a ticket for one of the most memorable weeks in the area.  This year’s festival was a usual line-up of stellar performances, lectures, classes, a crafts village, storytellers, and plenty of discussions.  This is a great place to have fantastic conversations.

This year also sees a performance of Sweet Honey in the Rock.  This group from DC began from theatre roots, and branched into music.  They’ve been playing for four decades, and continue to stun audiences all over the world, including the White House recently.  They are certainly a national treasure, and play a wide variety of musical styles, blues, jazz, spirituals, pop, and continue to evolve.  Their instruments are their voices, making for stunning examples of the human spirit in action, working through the body to make glorious sounds.

Deciding to move to Canada from the United States requires a lot of thought, and a lot of preparation.  When two friends of mine decided to relocate, they took a weeks vacation there ahead of time, to secure jobs and a place to live.  Finding a new flat was easy for them and they found themselves in one of the buildings run by the team at TransGlobe Property Management.  Not only did they get a sense of their new city of Vancouver, but they came home excited and assured that their choice for their new apartment was the perfect choice.

The staff at TransGlobe was warm and welcoming and they were now, instead of being stressed out about the move, extremely ready to just get moving, moving to their new life up North.  They could not stop speaking about the level of customer service they received from the employees working at their new complex, and they have an idea that this is how the rest of their Canadian life experiences will be.  The societies of Canadian cities is progressive and forward thinking and moving, and with more than seventy percent of the people in the workforce being immigrants, they know that they will feel right at home, in a sense.  At home because they will be surrounded by others who decided to make the move, and will share similar experiences.

Canada, much like the United States is quickly becoming a cultural melting pot and when people are welcomed into their new living and working situations by the sort of people working for TransGlobe Property Management, the transition becomes not only less stressful, but more inviting.   Both of my friends are self employed, on being an artist and one being a writer, and the community that they have chosen to become a part of is filled with others that are making a living with their creative talents.  Not only are they lucky to be starting this new life in Canada, but Canada is lucky to have them as well.
