Living on Vancouver Island

Life is different here!

It could be because of the panorama of physical beauty.  It could be the stress-relieving effects of deep-breathing fresh ocean air. Perhaps it is the more relaxed pace of life. Maybe it results from the influence of an eclectic combination of people who have shared the Island for generations – the First Nations people, artists and artisans, organic farmers, fishers and loggers, environmentalists, professionals and business people.  It could be because of the daily experience Islanders have with Canada’s piece of paradise, and knowing their place is in it.

Island living and the Island culture have a certain quality.  There is a gentle calm. In all levels of interaction, there is more consistent warmth, respect and kindness than you would ever expect. 

Whether you prefer a larger urban setting or a quiet rural community, Vancouver Island has a lot to offer. Quality educational facilities including colleges and universities are conveniently location throughout the island. To learn more about the different regions, visit  Vancouver Island.com
