Letter to my bestie
Thank you for your thoughtfulness, ■■■. The cyclone is hitting to North Queensland but not ■■■, where I live is in South Queensland so, it's far away from here and I won't affected at all.
I have recently started to work as a phone repair technician, that I wanted to be sooo badly!! I have been having a hard time finding a job here in Australia, in ■■■ and ■■■. It was a struggle and I was unemployed for a few months and stressed out so much.
I decided to give up everything and was about to go to a farm, organic garden rather, which provides us free accommodation and meals in return.
At that time, a friend of my friend opened his own shop and he needed a help technician and my friend had introduced me to him. It was super lucky like barely happens to foreign workers.
The owner is immigrated ■■■n and his fiance is ■■■e, they are really nice and we all are nearly the same age so we are getting along with each other so far. My working environment is so relaxing unlike all the jobs I experienced in my entire life. Finally, one of my dreams became true!! I'm so happy now <3
My current visa; ■■■ visa expires in ■■■ months but I will extend it as student visa. Between the terms I will go to Japan for two weeks.
I miss Canada and all of you so much but I might be busy from now on so, sadly I won't be able to visit you for a while but I sure will definitely make it one day.
I have to be moving around every few months for some reason lol My current place is insane like a mansion; 6 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 extra living rooms, deck and pool! The family is busy so I'm doing some chores for them; washing dishes, vacuuming and selling furnitures through websites, in return I'm living here in my own room and own bathroom for free! It is also super lucky. They are moving so I'm looking for a new place for next month.
Once I have moved I'll let you know my address!

Okay. You could say "I have recently started to work as the phone repair technician that I wanted to be sooo badly!!" "THE", so "that" is specific to "the". If you use "a phone repair technician" then "that" is too specific and qualifies "technician" so it sounds strange. But if you say "which is what I" or "technician and that is what I" then its a separate clause that's not qualifying technician, so the non specific "a" makes sense with it. Its not really a big deal, its clearly understandable either way, I think you can tell. But just in the way the different versions of this sentence sound, might help with a sense of "that" and specific-ness. (I made that word up... it means the quality of being specific)

Thank you for your thoughtfulness, ■■■. The cyclone is hitting to North Queensland but not ■■■,(where I live). Where I live is in South Queensland so, it's far away from here and I won't be affected at all. (Or: "but not ___, which is where I live, South Queensland. So it's far..." otherwise the sentence is a little too long and would need to be rephrased.)I have recently started to work as a phone repair technician, thatwhich is what I wanted to be sooo badly!! I have been having a hard time finding a job here in Australia, in ■■■ and ■■■. It was a struggle and I was unemployed for a few months and stressed out so much. (Or could say "technician. That is what I wanted..." "This is what I wanted to do so badly." Just "that" alone sounds weird referring to technician. You need "that is what" or something... just "that I wanted to be" I think grammatically, the clause would be missing some part of speech or something, like "that I wanted to be" is a misplaced clause or something. You could say "which I wanted to be"... I'm not sure, I'll think about it. "that" is just very awkward as is.)

(Better is "The owner, ___, immigrated with? his fiance, ____. They are" Or: "The owner is an immigrant, ___") My working environment is so relaxing unlike all the jobs I experienced in my entire life. Finally, one of my dreams became true!! I'm so happy now <3
My current visa; ■■■ visa expires in ■■■ months but I will extend it as a student visa. Between the terms I will go to Japan for two weeks. ("terms" alone makes me think of "terms of a contract", "semesters" might be better or you could say "between winter and summer term" or something.)

お気遣いありがとうXXX。竜巻は北QLDに上陸しているので、私の住んでいる南QLDではないよ。だから何の影響もありませんでした。
最近、ずっとずっとやりたかった携帯修理の仕事を始めました。XXXで仕事を探すのはとても難しくて、XXXでもXXXでもうまくいかなかった。長いこと無職のままで本当にストレスだった。
もう全部諦めてファーム、というかボタニックガーデンに行こうかと思って、そこなら住む場所と食事が無料だから。でもそんなとき、友人の友人がお店をオープンしたので私を紹介してくれたの。外国人労働者にはまず訪れない超ラッキーなことだった。
オーナーは移民したXX人で婚約者がXX人、とても良い人たちで私たちはみんなほぼ同い年だから今のところとても良好な関係です。
職場環境も本当に良くて、私の今までの人生で経験してきた全ての仕事とは大違い。夢のひとつがようやく叶って本当に嬉しい。
あとXXヶ月でビザが切れるから学生ビザに切り替えて滞在延長する予定。その間に2週間ほど日本に帰ろうと思ってるよ。
カナダが本当に懐かしいけれど、しばらく忙しくなって会いに行ける日は遠そう。でも必ず行くからね。
私はなぜか数ヶ月ごとに引っ越しをする運命みたいで、今も来月に住む家を探してる。
今の家はまるで豪邸で、6部屋に2バスルームにエクストラリビングやウッドデッキやプールまであるんだ。
彼らは忙しくて私が家事を手伝うかわりに今は無料で住まわせてもらってる。仕事は全然大変じゃないしオウンルームにオウンバスで超快適。
引っ越したら新しい住所を知らせるよ。
