Victoria, where I learnt more than just a language

by cinthya_in_victoria - last update: Mar 9, 2009

My favorite place in the world

Fairmont Empress Hotel
Welcome to the jewel of Canada's west coast! the city of gardens, the capital of British Columbia, the warmest place in all Canada, full of flowers almost all year round.. all that and much more is Victoria

This is my favorite place in Canada and believe me, once you walk on its streets, you'll feel like being in a fairy tale town.
Most of its charm derives from its English air as many people say Victoria is more British than England, and even though I haven't been in England I think it's true. In this city you can take great pictures because of the beautiful scenery, even if you are the worst photographer!

Enjoy your trip!!
BC Ferry

I studied English here in 2003...

and I had a great experience living the Canadian lifestyle and being a local for a while.

It was also a great opportunity to learn from international friends which most of them were from Korea and Japan

Isn't it exciting going abroad to study a foreign language while you have fun with your friends?
