Welcome to my blog!
I decided to call it The Lazy Girl’s Guide to Vancouver. “Why?” you might ask…
I am a lazy girl. And I love this city. I have lived here (well, in the ‘burbs, but don’t tell anybody!) for the greater part of a quarter century. And I have not appreciated it. I have traveled quite a bit. I have been to London, Venice, Paris, Rome, Sydney, Brisbane, Montreal, Quebec City, Halifax and many other places. I have explored these foreign cities; I have wandered their streets, shopped their shops and eaten their food. I have dreamed of living in other cities, all the while not benefiting from living in one of the best cities on earth.
In the past year or so, I made it my mission to get to know my city. This mission continues today. I take personal offense to people bashing Vancouver. Sure, it rains. It rains a lot. But you just need an umbrella and some good shoes, and then you can enjoy it.
This blog is not going to detail outdoors adventures. I like to party, I like to drink and I love to eat. I like to shop, I like to look at pretty things and I like to go to shows. So these are the things I am going to write about. I will let you know about events that are going on, good restaurants and fun things to do. If there is a cheap martini to be had in a trendy locale, I will be there, and so can you.
