West Coast is the Best Coast

in #travel7 years ago

Hey all,

I'm Ingmar, I just joined a couple days ago and haven't made any post yet so here I go!

I just wanted to introduce myself by giving you a little overview of the adventure that I've had in the past six months. You see, I've been a student at the University of Amsterdam the past couple years and it's been a lot of fun building my academic career and personal student life in such a vibrant and energetic yet close-knit city. However I was looking for another opportunity to invest my time and savings in, which came in the form of an international exchange to Vancouver, Canada!

This was a fantastic choice. Vancouver has it all--gorgeous downtown skylines, expansive waterfronts, wild mountains, gems of nearby islands and great skiing. It's also easy to hop in and out of the US, by bussing to Seattle for the weekend, doing roadtrips along the coast, or flying off to Hawaii (all of which were crazy!). It's impossible to contain all these experiences and life lessons into a single post, so I'm dropping a few pictures to illustrate all this.

This is a list of some places I've visited:

  • Vancouver (SFU, Burnaby campus)
  • Vancouver Island (Victoria, Nanaimo, Tofino)
  • Whistler
  • Hawaii (Oahu, Maui)
  • Seattle
  • Portland
  • California Redwoods
  • San Francisco
  • Santa Cruz
  • Santa Barbara
  • Los Angeles
  • Las Vegas
  • Zion National Park
  • Grand Canyon
  • Lake Powell

Hit me up if you have any questions for me! Cheers!
