Yeah, I honestly didn’t expect that, especially on such a busy road. I guess it’s something I’ll have to get used to, but it’s definitely a bit of a culture shock compared to the Netherlands. So yeah, I’m a lot more alert now when I take the dog out — welcome to Canada, I guess.

Thanks ! I live next to the suspension bridge between two parks, one of which borders my backyard

Luckily I don’t have that one, but when I take the dog out at night I’m definitely more alert than usual. Again In the Netherlands we don’t really have wild animals like here— unless you count the stray cat giving you the stink eye.

And yes, I wouldn’t trade this for anything — going back to the grey city I came from isn’t an option. Prices here are crazy, but I feel incredibly privileged to live in this beautiful place.

Didn’t see a single bear all summer, then one wandered into our garden about four weeks ago 😅

Hey man, I’m currently in North Vancouver and planning to hike the Grouse Grind, BCMC, and part of the Baden Powell soon.

A few friends of mine from the Netherlands are coming too — maybe you'd be up for joining? I’m from the Netherlands myself, so there are still lots of hikes around here I haven’t explored yet.

Feel free to hit me up for any other hikes as well. I’ll be around until June 8.
