Canada, eh?!

Our last stop on this journey was Canada. We planned to spend a month with family in Victoria and friends in Vancouver. It was the third time in the last four years that we came here, so we did not expect to discover new adventures.

This post is about our last stop in British Columbia, Canada.

We have also listed some great, memorable activities that we would recommend. Wildlife you can expect to see when coming to Canada you can find in a different post. Enjoy!

Meet the Beasts! Our Canada Wildlife Encounters.

Before my (Alex) first time in Canada my vision of this vast country was rough. I just pictured a massive untouched forest with menacing wildlife and tons of bears in particular.
After being with Britt for four years and having visited British Columbia three times by now, I have a more diverse and realistic view.

A lot of things come to my mind while thinking back on my time in Canada.  The imagery in my head is filled with polite people who “eh?!” a lot, camping trips, Britt’s family, a beautiful modern chinese town called Vancouver, the chill vibe of Tofino and much much more. And yet the stereotype of a massive forest remained. Why? Because it is true! And there is a lot of wildlife to see for sure.

The idea of this post is to share our very personal wildlife spotting locations from our three recent trips (mainly to B.C. and Vancouver Island in particular).
Especially now that more and more friends are coming here to enjoy the wildlife, maybe this might be a good inspiration for you guys where to look closer for the cool stuff.
