I think there is a cafe culture in some parts of the city - I remember these crazy Canadians sitting outside in shorts in January!

I have been to Vancouver on 4 separate trips now but never been over to Victoria and that's no. 1 on my list! I think Maddie links to my blog, I will have to check hers out again. :) Thanks for commenting. Susanna, I am a little worried about the friend part but I know I am going to enjoy living there.

Whoo hoo! I'm a Canuck living in the U.S. and although I do like my life down here, I often miss Home. Vancouver certainly will have lots of cafes and coffee shops. And it's such a friendly province with lots of social activities. You are going to make new friends, you are going to have FUN living there. I recommend taking the ferry from Vancouver to Vancouver Island in the late afternoon, around dusk. It's heavenly. I still dream about that trip. Sigh... You’re movin’ to Canada??! Whoo hoo!
