“There’s so much to love about<br />
this part <strong>of</strong> Canada, from<br />
its majestic mountains and<br />
picturesque lakes to its vibrant,<br />
safe cities and amazing wildlife,<br />
including moose, whales and<br />
grizzly bears. But it’s the people<br />
I love most. They’re so laidback<br />
and friendly, you can’t help but<br />
make friends wherever you go.”<br />

resemblance to a medieval castle.<br />
This three-day journey takes you from<br />
Vancouver to Jasper via the world-famous<br />

Peak Gondola) and historic town <strong>of</strong> Quesnel.<br />
Along the way you’ll pass scenic fjords, rushing<br />
