      Mr. Nate and Mrs. Kara, I agree that Vancouver is the best Canadian destination to visit. I'm so glad you guys visited there because you can't imagine how beautiful Vancouver is, not to mention what is it like to visit or live there. Personally, I visited there last year with my family and it was like being in the filming locations. I would nominate this vlog. In conclusion, I want to wish you, Nate and Kara, a very good luck on your upcoming journey vlog. 😃😉👍

      IKR! Anytime one of my AirBnB guests that stay with me ask about Chinatown I roll my eyes and clinch my teeth. It's always conflicting for me to explain cause locals know avoid it but without trying to discourage my traveling guests because they always read about it and want to explore that area. If anyone who is coming here to Vancouver honestly my advice is to skip Chinatown altogether just put it out of your mind the DTES (Downtown East Side) is no place for tourists or even us local residents to wonder around in. There are far better places to explore and enjoy!

I live in Calgary now and my 1 week stay in Vancouver when I was visiting my folks, and I swear to you, I saw more people shooting up drugs in that 1week than the 5 years I’ve been living in Calgary.... and I live in downtown Calgary lol.

      I wish Chinatown did something like paint the curbs so that people could know that if they no longer see a painted curb, they should turn around. Vancouver's Chinatown is FAMOUSLY near-impossible to navigate without getting turned around at Main and Hastings, even for BC locals.

  • @FromThePrairies

    Ha! You landed in East Hastings - yep, it’s sketchy but the drug addicts are pretty friendly! Chinatown isn’t really a thing anymore in Vancouver. Go to Richmond if that’s what you’re after.

      I can vouch for this. Vancouver has the nicest drug addicts and homeless people I have ever seen. I've been to Vancouver a few times. I've parked my rental car with GPS in the car in some sketchy area's and never had a problem.

    Hey guys! As someone who has grown up in Vancouver my entire life I am happy you got to experience the city on a nice sunny day. It truly is a wonderful place filled with a great community of people. But yes, we do have some lower income areas that you seemed to stumble apon. Vancouver's DTES (downtown east side) is one of the largest strips of poverty in all of north america. However it is a functioning community that has a relatively low crime rate and a strong sense of family. The reason for this area is largely due to other areas in Canada simply being too cold for homeless people to survive, therefore Vancouver's climate makes it somewhat livable. Just wanted to give a bit of background on the area, which I know can be a shock to tourists! Happy you got to visit this wonderful part of Canada.

      I lived in metro Van for a couple of years. It was a dope little neighborhood just north of Hastings, just inside Burnaby. Hastings was pretty much my main route into the city.
      I was warned against spending much time off Hastings, especially around the east side, when I first got to town. I never had an issue, though.
      Believe me when I tell you that the sketchier parts of Vancouver are head and shoulders beyond safer than some of the neighborhoods in Atlanta I've lived in.
      Seriously, with some of the third world countries these two have waltzed through blissfully, I somehow highly doubt Chinatown is one of the sketchier areas they've been to. Also, the classic chinese garden is dope as AF.

    In Vancouver, the Chinatown you guys went to was the older one. There’s two main china towns; Richmond Vancouver and the newer Chinatown. The Chinatown you went to is where a lot of shady characters hang out, once night hits, after people have had their drinks they typically go down there

    Congratulations Kara and Nate!! You are the best travel vloggers out there! My husband and I got to spend a day in Vancouver in August pre-cruise and we loved it! We visited the Capalano Suspension Bridge Park and also enjoyed some Asian cuisine and visited Gastown. The town was very clean and definitely had a cool vibe. On to 500K by the end of year???? Maybe??? Keep on keeping on!! 🤗

I took the V2V Ferry to Victoria in mid-October but while I was in Victoria the V2V had its last sailing of the season so I decided to take HarbourAir seaplane back to Vancouver. Beautiful flight, no turbulence, it is a bit loud inside but man, you can't beat 35 mins, downtown to downtown. Fun fact, the luggage is stowed in the floats!

    Knowing the distances involved between the north shore and Granville Island I'm impressed with how much ground you covered by bicycle in a few hours and still allowed time to stop for photos & videos. I'm also glad your visit coincided with the best part of the fall weather! Granville Island used to pure industry for the bulk of the 20th century, and when it was revitalized to what you see now it found a much appreciated second purpose that helped facilitate False Creek being cleaned up. There are occasions now when whales even venture into those waters. As for the Chinatown experience you likely didn't see the more interesting parts of Old Chinatown (as mentioned by others Richmond has surpassed this now) but it does have plenty of history. Chinatown and Gastown are separated by the downtown east side, which as you perhaps experienced does have an abundance of addicts, dealers, and street people coping with mental health issues. It's the poorest neighborhood in one of the wealthiest cities, but again as noted that doesn't mean there isn't an abundance of very kind and decent people there too. You'll have to make it back one day for a longer visit and to try some different food!
