    Hi. Seeing as youre new to town, let me suggest some day trip destinations. You could try Dinosaur Provincial Park {not to be confused with Drumheller). You drive over a ridge and the badlands open up and come in to view. Its like you stepped back in time 160,000,000 years. Going in spring when wild flowers bloom is stunning. Writing on Stone prov park is less known and you get a sense of stark lonely ageless prairie. Milk River and Head Smashed in Buffalo Jump are a thought. Driving the Banff-Jasper highway is beautiful.. Wood Buffalo(quite a drive) is a dark sky preserve. One of the darkest places on the planet as its so far from city light. I watched the Northern lights there a few years back and it was like the sky was on fire with multi-coloured light!. Also, if you venture out on a trip to Vancouver and are not in a hurry, don't go via the Coquihala. Its a short cut freeway and any other route is spectacular in comparison. As you might have guessed, I love this place and I try to let newcomers know of less touristy places to visit. Welcome to Calgary!

      youre welcome. On my channel, which I only have to record my journeys, there is one called BC road trip. It shows some of the #3 highway and the #97 through the Okanagan valley, along with #1 and the tunnels on the way back to Calgary.

    Welcome to Calgary! You guys should definitely check out the Calgary tower it's very fun there's restaurants that move in a circle.. also the glass floor makes everyone look like tiny ants lol

  • @FalconFlurry
    @FalconFlurry 7 лет назад +9

    Thanks for doing this, it's really cool to see my home from the perspective of a foreigner, there's so many things we take for granted (like the Rockies) or are used to (like the weather). When you get a little more settled I would recomend taking a trip to the canadian arctic in the summer, the scenery up there is also beautiful, although somewhat morbid, but you can see polar bears and the midnight sun -something very few people get to see. Or if you're feeling brave you can go during the winter when it's always night and you can see some pretty incredible northern lights.

  • @soyceleste83

      @Volodymyr it depends on what type of house you want to rent and in which area. Downtown newer apartments for 1 bed, 1 bath will be between $1450 - $1650 and 2 beds, 2 baths start around $1900 - $2200 unfurnished. You can get cheaper rents in older buildings. It depends on your lifestyle too

    I don't know if it is a great place to do it, but I'll be coming to Canada next September and I'd rather prefer to put my luggage in Banff and Jasper.
    All the comments here are full of kindness, albeit that's not usual in social media, so I'm looking for people living here to connect and communicate.
    Thank you kindly and see you soon.

      i guess your reasons to move to CA is either personal or for the love of adventure (i mean no harm), cos most Asians, Africans e.t.c immigrate to Canada due to economic reasons. i believe same can't be said about folks from the developed . enjoy your living in the Canada.
