I've lived in lots of areas of the Lower Mainland before I moved away to Edmonton, but I'd have to say my favourite area would be Killarney, just because that's where I graduated and have a ton of memories. If I could move back to Vancouver though, can't say I'd be too picky!
ReplyDeleteIt changes for me. I have lived here for 16 years now. My current neighbourhood crush is Gastown.
ReplyDeleteI live in Burnaby, but have always been drawn to Gastown. The history, the eclectic people and the great shops and services make it a wonderful place to spend time.
