Question Settledown at Victoria...

Hi Frineds there,

I will be settling down in Victoria from overseas and my company will be at somewhere on Fort Street, can anyone suggest where can I find a temparory to short-term accommodation for a single person or a couple?

Since I have to convert my overseas driver's license to BC license, can you also share with me ideas on selecting location, cost and type of accommodation?

If I fly to Vancouver, how can I get to downtown of Victoria?

Sorry to ask many questions, but it is for my start in Vic!

Apartment: Google search la.
One Badroom: about $600~700, Two bedroom, $700~900


*Since I have to convert my overseas driver's license to BC license, can you also share with me ideas on selecting location, cost and type of accommodation?

If it's from China, you have to take written test and road test,
If it's US, you can do it.

*If I fly to Vancouver, how can I get to downtown of Victoria?
1) You can book air tickets directly to Victoria, There is an airport in Viatoria.
2) Take seaplane/float-plane from Vancouver downtown
3) Take ferry (PCL from Vancouver airport)

I did 1st options when I came here from Toronto.

Thanks 木匠

As far as I know, you can drive for three months if you are holding a Chinese driver licence. That means you need to pass the road test within three months.

Nowadays, Internet has everything. Of course, you can find the bus information of Victoria: http://www.busonline.ca/regions/vic/?p=1.txt

By the way, congratulations!

Talking 据说,

据说,在VICTORAIA 有这样一个标语:
Welcome to Victoria!
然后有一段小字写的是:Nobody can afford the living here.

So summer will be a good time to ride bicycle. It always be sun shining days.

So many ppl love riding bicycles that they also do that in winter. Good for their health, I think. I knew a guy riding hours to work everyday.
