Date women from Canada / British Columbia / Vancouver, 25 year old

Date a girl from Vancouver, Canada. I am adventurous, pretty silly, and motivated.. I enjoy the simple things in life, but also love to travel and get out of my comfort zone from time to time. I have gotten to the age where I am very happy with myself and am blessed with great family and friends.
I am attracted to ambitious and positive people who are goal oriented, but also creative and ready to break out of routine from time to time. My career (I am a songwriter and musician) allows me to travel, so I like to take advantage of that if possible.

Meet someone special from Vancouver, Canada. I moved to Vancouver to do my undergrad, and have loved the city ever since. After living in a number of different places, it's certainly a beautiful city that offers a wonderful lifestyle.
Of course there are still so many places I'd like to go to, and I hope to one day experience all of it with my best friend. I'm looking for someone who is compassionate, thoughtful, funny, and loves to keep learning. ItРІР‚в„ўs important to me to have an adventurous outlook on life, and consider the world a playground worth exploring.
Aside from travelling, I also treasure the simple things, like hot chocolate after a day of skiing, sampling a fantastic Belgian beer, and staying in with a good film or book. When my family comes to visit with our dogs, walking on the beach is my favorite thing to do as they make me laugh all the time. (I cannot wait for the day to have my own dog!)
My career can keep me quite busy at times, but I will always make time for the people who matter to me. It is also important to me to stay healthy, which means being active in lots of different ways, getting fresh air, cooking good food, and exercising my mind. IРІР‚в„ўm greatly looking forward to all that life has to offer!

Date a soulmate from Vancouver, Canada. Now... how to portray myself in a 2-dimensional text box, when 3-dimensions can barely contain my personality... Good thing I'm not one to turn away from a challenge...
I am confident, driven, and passionate. I strive for the things I want out of life and I'm not afraid to grab 'a bull by its horns' to get a job done. My friends would definitely describe me as exuberant and out-going - I rarely miss an opportunity to socialize whether it's with my friends, colleagues, or the troop of pre-teen Girl Guides that I meet with every week. I live an active life - between school/work, volunteering with Girl Guides of Canada, and relaxing with friends, I still find time to eat right and lead a healthy lifestyle. I think that the pinnacle of humour is sarcasm and the ability to poke fun at yourself. Luckily, I have an abundance of quirks to work with. I believe strongly in just being oneself. So here I am, just as I am.
If you'd like to know more, just say hi, or invite me out to share a beverage of your choosing then send me an e-mail! Or respond to one of mine - I am not afraid to to make the first move and send the first e-mail... you've been warned. :)

Meet single girl from Vancouver, Canada. Metro Vancouver says it has no money to replace its aging stock of apartment buildings, which provide affordable housing for thousands of people throughout the region.
The Metro Vancouver Housing Corporation operates more than 50 apartment buildings and many of those will need to be torn down and replaced within 10 to 15 years, said New Westminster Mayor Wayne Wright, chairman of MetroРІР‚в„ўs housing committee.
Wright said there is no immediate need to replace the buildings, but “it is looming, it will come .... It’s going to come back and bite us.”
The 3,600 Metro-run units provide housing to 10,000 residents throughout the region. Some tenants pay market rents, subsidizing the remaining 30 per cent of residents — 3,000 people — who constitute low-income tenants.
With an annual operating budget of $36 million, the system has worked well over the years, Wright said. Roughly 90 per cent of building maintenance and operations costs were covered by revenue from the market-rate suites, making for a nearly self-sufficient enterprise, according to MetroРІР‚в„ўs 2012 budget.
But Wright said Metro does not have a long-term capital budget to replace those buildings outright when the need arises, he added funding for redevelopment should come from the provincial and the federal governments.
“This is not a municipal responsibility in the first place, I have no idea how we got into it. This is a provincial-federal responsibility .... It’s just a business that we should not be in, that’s what it comes down to,” he said.
Wright said there were no plans to sell housing land to private investors, although one option includes leasing sites to developers, who would be obligated to build the same number, or more, of subsidized units that would be torn down.
That solution is in the inquiry phase at the housing committee, Wright said.
A planned redevelopment of MetroРІР‚в„ўs Heather Place townhouse complex in Vancouver near Vancouver General Hospital offers a similar model for reconstruction that may be suitable for neighbourhoods with high real estate values.
Its proposed replacement would be a mixed-use project built by a private developer, where extra density and modest rezoning would allow more market-priced as well as affordable housing units, said Don Driedger, maintenance superintendent for the Metro Vancouver Housing Corp.
He said the site provides an example of where projected repair costs compel complete reconstruction. Repair estimates for Heather Place are more than $7 million, due largely to water damage, Driedger said, whereas the annual capital improvement budget for all 50 Metro buildings is $10 million.
Construction at Heather Place would be phased, allowing some residents to stay on-site during redevelopment. Other low-income residents would be provided with shelter, while market-unit tenants might have to find their own accommodation, Wright said.
Meanwhile, BC Housing is investing $300 million in a partnership with the city of Vancouver to build more than 1,500 new supportive housing units for mentally and psychologically challenged residents, with four of 14 planned buildings already open. But the province is virtually absent from affordable rental housing efforts.
No one from BC Housing nor Rich Coleman, the minister responsible for housing, could be reached for comment.
The need for affordable housing is more urgent in Vancouver than almost anywhere else in the country, said Karen Leibovici, president of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, who spoke out on the topic last week.

Date a soulmate from Canada. I like to get to the point; efficient is how I run my life as well as relationships. I can let the small stuff slide as long as you demonstrate your integrity. I don't focus on physical attributes, but I do care about the way a man carries himself. I don't care about what you do, what you make, who you know, what you drive, or any other external factor. If you don't hit the major points that I look for in personality, we won't work out.
If I don't reply to your emails here, it's because I refuse to pay.

Meet single girl from Canada. A simple summary of who I am: naturopathic student, foodie, traveller, fashion lover, music lover, wannabe dancer, middle child and great friend.
I am passionate about health, happiness and living life to its fullest. I am currently studying to become a Naturopathic Doctor, which has consumed my life over the past 3 years. I thoroughly enjoy it though, and am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. With the stress of medical school, itРІР‚в„ўs important to find a balance of work and play. IРІР‚в„ўm an open girl who loves to share a bottle of wine with friends at home, go dancing or get outside doing something active to let loose.
Surrounding myself with loved ones is important to me, including friends and family. I have always been really close with my family, even though IРІР‚в„ўm always the farthest away for school or travel. Even though I've been on one coast or another for schools lately, my family always makes sure to spend time together. Whether it be back home, skiing or exploring a different country.
Some may say I can come off a little shy or serious, but as soon as you get to know me you will realize I am neither. Instead my friends say I am silly, dependable, honest and ok yes, maybe a little serious. But I love to have fun and am always up for trying new things.
IРІР‚в„ўm looking for someone that has ambition, a sense of humor and enjoys a nice restaurant or relaxing on the couch. Someone whoРІР‚в„ўs up for exploring what this city has to offer, whether it be the outdoors, music, food or wine!

Meet someone special from British Columbia, Canada. I love everything this beautiful city has to offer.
I don't think there is anything better than laughing until you cry.
I am a terrible cook but I must say I am an excellent host.
I have spent the last couple years in the UK, completing a Master's degree. I try to go to a country I've never been to every year!
I tried to be cool in high school and took up snowboarding and am now trying to become a great skier again. I'm also shamefully good at softball and soccer.
Half of my life was spent growing up in the Okanagan - beach girl!
I am looking for a confident, driven and spontaneous man who thrives on his passion for life and having a good time - and a good bottle of wine from time to time.

Date a soulmate from British Columbia, Canada. I have a lot of hobbies. Puzzle making, knitting, fishing, knitting sweaters for fish, knitting frames for my puzzles, making puzzles of fish in sweaters and of course, fencing.
One day I hope to open up a store where I can sell my fish sweaters. I know the market is there but no one has tapped it yet.
One of the things that makes me unique, is that I am the only person I know who makes fish sweaters..isn't that neat?
I am outgoing and loud, but shy and quiet. I am a fish puzzle all on my own. Can you figure me out?
I have an eclectic taste in music; mostly I listen to soft jazz.
But honestly, I don't make fish sweaters. Just cat sweaters. ;)

Meet single girl from British Columbia, Canada. I am quiet but loveable. I am in a healing profession as well as a creative one. I love to be outdoors and especially love being as close to the ocean as possible. I often go down to the beach to watch the sunset, as it helps ground me and open my heart.
