Intro

"Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life — and travel — leaves marks on you." Anthony Bourdain

Most Anthony Bourdain quotes resonate with me. I love to travel. Maybe just a faction of Mr. Bourdain’s love. Or maybe the same amount. But every insight he shared, hits home for me. Every trip I take changes me. Leaves a mark in one way or another. On my body. On my mind. Or on my soul. If I’m lucky, all three.

My trip to Vancouver changed me. It was the first time I truly realized I wanted to change as a human being and I had the capability. Below I will share a bit about my journey to Vancouver along with some of my favorite spots and restaurants along with some shared by Google and Mr. Bourdain.

Conclusion

If you decide to make it to the beautiful city of Vancouver I hope you do more planning and exploring in this magical city. I spent two days with no plan, just wandering around and I love it but I have major FOMO of people who have more time in Vancouver or maximized their time wisely.

You will be at no shortage of beauty and things to do in Vancouver. The summer daylight is longer, the weather is perfect. I just recommend you bring an umbrella for some unexpected rain. But if that is the worst the city has to offer, it definitely won’t put a damper on your trip.
