Victoria

Victoria is the capital of British Columbia and is surrounded by snow capped mountains and the sea. It is an inspiring place, not only because of its close poximity to nature, but perhaps by the people who have been attracted to live in such a place. Most people I meet here were not born on Vancouver Island so there is very much a pioneer mentality. Most of the characters I have met here are keen to learn new skills for themselves (rather than being interested in others) and seem to be knowledgable about the environment. I'm excited to be constantly learning about how to achieve my goal of self sufficiency.
