Beautiful view of downtown Vancouver, mountains, and park.

My brother calls us “laid-back west-coasters.” Everyone tells it’s beautiful here, when I say I’m from Vancouver. I always see news articles and broadcasts about how expensive it is to live here. All these things are true about Vancouver.

“What is it again that you love so much about [Vancouver]?” and they answer, “We have everything. The mountains and the water.” This is their explanation, mountains and water.

Terrified about Camping? Comforting Words of Advice to Ease into it.

January 7, 2022 by Tazim Leave a Comment

Maybe your partner or friend urges you to give camping a try. But you're terrified about camping. I hope you'll give it a try after you read this post.

Are you scared of the prospect of spending the night in “the great outdoors?” It can be a scary place full of unknown factors, moderate isolation, and just a thin tent between you and the world. The lack of electricity or immediate technology can seem hard to wrap one’s head around. And yet, maybe because your significant other or friend urges you to give it a try, you’re willing to. But, if you’re terrified of camping, I hope you’ll give it a try after you read this post.

How do you get over the Initial Fear of Camping?

What is there to do in Whistler During Fall?

August 25, 2021 by Tazim Leave a Comment

In Winter you have downhill skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, snowmobiling (are you seeing a trend here?) and on-mountain sightseeing. There’s no doubt that there are plenty of reasons why most people who think of Whistler think of it as a winter destination.

Summer in Whistler is also a lot of fun, with the world-class mountain bike park that is ever-expanding, lakes to jump into, and plenty of hiking trails for every ability level.

Fall is also a great time of year to take a break and head to Whistler. With the mountain bike park and gondolas closed for the season in early October, the rest of fall in Whistler is a lot less crowded.

Take a look at this post to find things to do in Whistler during the fall season.
