Favourite street in your city:

Commercial Drive always has a special place in my heart… it’s vibrant, diverse, rich with culture, teeming with incredible food & drink & experiences.. the only thing it truly needs is a great venue.

Favourite park in your city:

It’s a little drive from Vancouver, but I absolutely ADORE Centennial beach in Tsawwassen cause it’s a shallow bay that gets so warm in the sunshine for swimming/floating, gorgeous view of the entire bay that looks out towards Mount Baker, which stands towering over everything on a clear day. Plus my kid is OBSESSED with that playground hah.

Favourite music venue in your city:

The Orpheum, Guilt & Co.
