Travelling Moments
by
Arleen Depluzer
When Arleen Depluzer emigrated from Jamaica to Canada, she had just experienced a painful breakup and wanted to create a better life for her infant daughter. The early years were difficult; back home she had been a licensed realtor who lived in a beautiful house, but in Canada she had to settle for a mediocre lifestyle in order to survive with her daughter. With hard work, determination and unwavering faith, she went back to school and began a successful new career. Travelling Moments explores the fear, loneliness and culture shock every immigrant experiences when moving to a new and unfamiliar country. Brimming with encouragement and wisdom, this book will inspire anyone who has ever dreamed of starting a new life. Depluzer, even at her darkest times, believed that when life throws you down, there is only one way to go—and that’s up.
Arleen Ann Marie Depluzer is a Jamaican-born immigrant. She is a licensed Realtor in Jamaica and a trained Paralegal in British Columbia, and she is a single mother who believes in giving back to her community. She lives in Kelowna, BC, with her daughter.
