Why I love where I live. Simply, British Columbia has it all! From the thriving metropolis of Vancouver to small clean country towns, with its amazing lakes, rivers and mountains and unparalleled natural beauty and abundant wildlife. It is a magical, multi-faceted province which I am happy and proud to call "home". Here are some more reasons why I love living in beautiful British Columbia, Canada.
