We’re Nick & Raychel, the couple behind the blog Not Luxe - where we write travel guides & help people open their eyes to alternative living, whether that be teaching English online, moving to Cambodia, taking advantage of working holiday visas (like in Australia) or building a DIY stealthy camper van to live & work on the road. Right now, we’re living the van life and travelling safely in our own backyard of British Columbia in Canada.
Our goal here is to bring you weekly content where we hope to inspire you to break free & live the life you desire. On Thursdays, we talk everything from finances to minimalism to working online to mindset and on Sundays, we post a weekly vlog of our daily lives. We hope you join us on our journey to see the world, save money, live minimally, and most importantly, have fun.
Thanks for watching! If you're moving to Vancouver, hopefully this answered some questions? Let us know if you have any other Vancouver-related questions & we'd be glad to answer them!
Hi Raychel. My question is where could be good start with kids? Which rental apartments are preferred by families?
Vancouver or Montreal ?
So helpful!
Thank you for informations I watch your video from Canada 😁👍
I am moving to Vancouver and this was a helpful video. Thank you!
That's so awesome to hear, thanks for watching!
Very informative video…i was just looking for recommended places to live in Vancouver. Thank u for the video.
Thank you guys! Next month I’m going to Vancouver !
That's awesome, enjoy!
Thanks MUCH for the share and video! You covered many of the areas I remember so well, being from Vancouver, and spent many years their in 50's to 70's... I find it extemely interesting in your finding affordable places to live there, as cost was a major issue and reason I left in the 70's. All the BEST to you and all in the New Year! Cheers from south of the closed border :)
So glad you enjoyed it!! Hopefully you can come back for a visit some day. As for us, we can't wait to get over that border as soon as things calm down, lol!! Happy new year :)
@@nickandraychel Thanks again! Yes it will be great to have the border open again, this past year has made me realize that I need to get back to Vancouver to visit family and friends as too many things are so uncertain in life... Your video shows the maps I relate to so much, and even the hospital where I was born... Enjoy your travels and adventures! Too funny that we are separated by generations, but have the same have common interests and love your ambulance life! Cheers and all the BEST! :)
Thanks heaps for the video, this is super helpful
You are welcome!
Love the neighborhood-specific info, thank you! Watched other videos and they were annoyingly vague. Most of these were already on my radar except for Hastings-Sunrise, which sounds great. Made me discover the R (rapid) buses, which would be a good alternative to the link I think
Thanks! love your content :D
So glad to hear that!!
Great video! I've lived in Vancouver 28 years in many areas and my top 3 are Kits, The Drive (commercial), and the West End. You are correct about the West End being more affordable than most places in the down town area, especially considering where it is in relation to the water and all the amenities.
Yeah!! I've yet to have any luck with rentals in Kits, which is why we didn't mention it, but it's SUCH a beautiful area. Thanks for watching!!
Can't wait to visit Vancouver one day, I've always wanted to go! Also a 'walk up' sounds like what we would call a 'flat' or a 'block of flats' etc hehehhe.
Yesss you totally should! Hey that sounds like a better word for it hahah!
Thanks for your very useful video 🌸
Thanks for watching ❤️❤️
Really nice video that gave me a lot of inspiration for my own videos. Keep up the great work and take care
I love your videos. I also wanted to know any ideas regarding car insurance I heart it is expensive. I’m planning to move from Toronto to Vancouver
Thank you! Yeah ICBC is the mandatory insurance in BC - we don't have the choice here so it can be a bit of a pain. You can always get a quote from ICBC over the phone / maybe even online.
I was literally considering moving to Vancouver or Kelowna in the next 3 months . No work here in Ontario for me and Ive always lived pretty minimally so the rent is honestly the same ( I live in Barrie, ON which costs as much as Toronto) Ive found a few decent room rentals in both cities too, I just need somewhere that has a good bus system ! :)
Oh great! Either Kelowna or Vancouver would be fine - it’s all about preference. The prices in Barrie have really crept up j over the years hey! Craziness.
I definately like a smaller city - would you say Kelowna or West Kelowna or maybe Vernon ?
Kits is the place to be!
Awww yeah, my old stomping grounds!!

I’m looking to move back to Vancouver in November hard part is finding an apartment that allows large dogs as I have a 70lbs golden retriever. What would you recommend. Love the video!
Ahh yes, you know what - we should have mentioned this. These places do exist, but they are trickier to find. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but everyone I personally know with a dog lives in the Mount Pleasant / Broadway between Cambie-Clark kind of area or in North Vancouver. I know that the SPCA and Vancouver City Council were looking to change the "no pets" rule in BC, making it impossible for landlords to tell you no, but I'm not sure when that will be in effect. They did it in Ontario, it's made a massive difference.
@@nickandraychel thank you so much hopefully I can find something.
I want to visit Vancouver so bad! I’ve only gone once as a toddler which doesn’t count.
Aww yeah you've gotta come back!
Depend on your age group, your lifestyle and your budgets of course.
raychel is very cute
helllo
woah.... didn't think y'all would be whipping out the N-word multiple times in the video. very unexpected
What? Lol
west end cheep???????? are you high and canada fireworks are at canada place!
It is in comparison to many other parts of Vancouver, particularly anything west of Cambie, and he was referring to the Honda Celebration of Light
@@nickandraychel no parts of vancouver are cheep and try finding a $900 not going to happen and the english bay fireworks are around august 1st and during gay pride.... not trying to be negative
@@doald Just going to clarify that we meant affordable, not cheap. Vancouver is expensive, but I've never spent more than $800/monthly on an apartment including living solo - I've never made more than $17/hour in the city so I didn't really have a choice. Not sure what's wrong with the Celebration of Light being near the pride parade lol. I know Vancouver is expensive, it can be stressful, we talk about it a lot in this video here: ua-cam.com/video/bKqWHM2_lFU-/v-deo.html but it's home, and with a bit of craftiness, you can make it work. Wish you the best.
