I had a great time in Vancouver. Scenic view, great food scenary and culture richness. I felt safe using public transportation and mostly all the time, just need to avoid some areas in downtown. I’m looming forward to showing it around.

Halifax feels overall very safe, very nice people. But if you don’t have a car, you can see everything in a weekend. It’s a small city. Best if you can go travel around Nova Scotia. Also best to come here during summer.
Posted: October 6, 2024Everyone is absolutely so welcoming and kind. I feel safe constantly, even at night. Kings does very good food and the local farmers market is so cute and has lots of beautiful jewellery and yummy food!
Posted: October 1, 2024i was there for a month, partially with family, partially with friends, and partially solo. i went to Banff with my family, hangout in Toronto with friends, and solo travelled in Montreal/Quebec. it was a great balance of nature and city fun
Posted: September 16, 2024I had a great time at Banff. I booked two seperate day tours online to pick me up in Calgary and take me on a tour of Banff. This allowed me to save money on accommodation closer to the park and get to see Lake Moraine. Moraine lake can only be seen if you are part of a tour group from what we were told. I had a great time and got to see a lot of the park through the two separate tours.
Posted: September 11, 2024We stayed at a cute cabin on a farm and it was so relaxing and the exact chill weekend we needed out of the city. Very queer friendly area as well, I find these little towns they don’t ask lots of questions you can just exist!

Posted: August 21, 2024The Holy Peace! A haven of tranquility and gentleness to relearn how to take your time. Over 200 km of beach with warm water and stunning landscapes will surely enchant you. Plan your trips and accommodation!

I took a tall ship cruise around Halifax bay with my family, it was extremely enjoyable and I highly recommend it. Afterwards we went for a very nice meal at Baton rouge restaurant, a bit expensive but Canada is quite expensive.

Vancouver is pretty safe for the most part! Especially the suburbs and areas in the lower mainland. Downtown Vancouver and east side of it is quite messed up but nothing too dangerous. Just know your surroundings and be aware of them and it’s all okay!!
Posted: December 9, 2024Canada is safe. Many people get around even at night. And people always care for each other. But sometimes homelessness is shouting in the air, but you are getting to know that is not much dangerous

Hello! Greetings! I'm Kathryn! I just finished my degree in history and creative writing and am currently planning a long-winded trip (or pilgrimage, of sorts) across Europe with a goal see that even in our anxious world, there are still pockets of beauty everywhere. In the meantime, I live in a suburb just outside of Vancouver, BC. I once met up at a local coffee shop with a sister from the Host a Sister Facebook group, and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it! I really like getting to hear about another person's culture as I am super curious about what it's like to live in other parts of the world. Unfortunately, I don't really think I can host you as I am living with my parents at the moment because of this crazy Vancouver housing crisis, but one day I think hosting sisters would be really fun! In the mean time, I would love to meet up with you! If you're visiting Vancouver and the greater Vancouver area, I would be happy to meet up with you or take you for coffee somewhere. I can give you all kinds of information, like what it's like living in "The Loneliest City in the World," or give advice on places to eat, or day trips to take from Vancouver without a car (as I have experience exploring BC car free as I don't drive) or maybe we could go hiking together?

I'm originally from French Polynesia and moved to Canada a few years ago. I'm currently travelling through Canada, that's why I can't host for now. I enjoy travelling, I actually came back from a 2 years trip in Asia. It was amazing! So many things I experienced and people I met :) I also like hiking and exploring. I volunteered in farms, hostels, schools and temples while travelling. It's a good way to live the daily local life I think. I hope I can do the same for travellers one day, once I settle down.
