Life in Vancouver
A city with a temperate climate that is surrounded by mountains, lakes, beaches, oceans, and rich wildlife is a place that offers you the best chance for work-life balance. Whether you want to explore one of the nine beaches in Vancouver or the oceans and lakes just outside of the city, Vancouver offers you endless breathtaking views and opportunities to participate in aquatic sports and other outdoor activities.
If you would prefer to go hiking or camping, you need not look beyond SFU Burnaby Mountain; if you’re looking for more of a challenge, you can take on the Grouse Grind or Mount Seymour. With Vancouver being one of the warmest cities in Canada, you will have plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors and cultivate a healthy and active lifestyle.
