One of the first things people learn about me is that I just moved to Vancouver from Toronto. And maybe you want to know why. There are 2 main reasons I moved back: 1- My parents moved back to Canada after living overseas. After 18 years of flying to see each other, it's now a real treat for me to be able to go out for dinner, go sailing or see a movie with my folks... any time we like. 2- Other than wanting to be with my family, I love the great outdoors. I grew up skiing, biking, fishing. Later, I got into hiking, camping, canoeing, snorkeling and scuba diving. I saw much of southern Ontario's provincial parks, and I drove down thru the Blueridge mountains in Virginia. But nothing compares to the practically year-round outdoor activities of the Pacific Northwest. There is a great variety of landscape, and within an hour of the city, you can do almost anything you want -- ski, camp, climb, boat... Who wouldn’t want to live here? So when I'm not working, I'm probably scrambling up a mountain, buzzing around Vancouver on my bike, bird-watching on a Nature Trail or spending time in Roberts Creek on the Sunshine Coast.
