This morning, I woke up at 7AM and boarded the Skytrain to Burrard Station. From there, I boarded a bus to Lynn Valley where I met up with a Meetup group to hike Norvan Falls. Norvan Falls is an easy, flat 14km roundtrip hike which follows the river until arriving at Norvan Falls. From there, you can continue on to a lake or even Grouse Mountain, but we decided to retrace our steps back to the trailhead.
During the hike, I was mostly speaking to Abdul, a mid-to-late 20s Transplant to Vancouver. He was born and raised in Afghanistan, and attended graduate school in Phoenix, AZ. He recently moved to Vancouver and is starting work on Thursday at a fish company where he’ll be working on financials. We had great conversations about politics, business, stocks, investing, and more.
After the hike, I spent a couple hours at Starbucks and wandered a bit around Vancouver before heading back to the Airbnb. At the AirBNB, I booked a roundtrip bus to Whistler (leaving Thursday morning and returning Friday night), a hostel in whistler, and an AirBnb in Vancouver for Friday night and Saturday night.
All in all, it was a relatively uneventful day, but still had a nice time!
