What’s the best thing about living in West Vancouver? Why did you move here? Peace and quiet and FAR from Yaletown, where I lived for ten years before it became pretentious, annoying and everyone who is no-one moved-partied-pretended lived there.
What’s your favourite thing to do on a weekend in West Vancouver? Driving around the older communities and exploring.
Do you have any secret haunts yet? Our Cactus Club is the best in Vancouver. And I love Beach Side Café -- it’s where my husband proposed to me!

What’s the best thing about living in West Vancouver? The community feel and the close proximity to everything you want to do.
What’s your favourite thing to do on a weekend in West Vancouver? Ramble down to Lighthouse Park. It’s a great place to take the dogs. White Cliff Park Is also a fantastic weekend plan: walk across to the island when the tide is low and have a picnic on top.
How long does it really take it get across the bridge to Vancouver in the morning rush? 5 minutes!
Fun facts about West Vancouver: It has the most populated dog beach in the city – one the easternmost side of Ambleside Beach, at the mouth of the Capilano River.

What do you like best about West Vancouver?
- Dundarave Village – a quaint and beautiful place to visit. Try the seawalk to Dundarave Pier, or relax at one of the area’s great coffee shops
- West Vancouver’s fantastic provincial park, Cypress Bowl. It’s my favourite place to snowshoe in the winter and partake of hot chocolate in the snow!
- I love West Vancouver’s huge marinas, bays and coves with their own parks and beaches
