    Hello. I'm an international student that will be studying in September. Does anyone know how the commute is/how long the bus ride is from Simon Ave, Abbotsford to University of the Fraser Valley in Chiliwack? On google maps it's max 2hrs by bus and 30mins by car. I don't drive. Do you think it's too far?
    Opinions/suggestions/recommendations are highly appreciated!

    Very smooth footage. What camera is this? It does have a LOT of rolling shutter though. Did you do any colour grading on it because it's very vivid - and Abbotsford rarely has that much colour - just rain and churches?

    I backpacked from NL to Ontario, then Greyhound out west to Alberta, stayed in Alberta for a month then Greyhound to BC. It was a blast BUT has it's down falls too. The bus ride isn't too bad as long as you have something to help you sleep in the most screwed up position ever! And have money. The stops these drivers take bring you the middle of no where for food at times and it costs a fortune! Also, be prepared for frequent stops or none at all. LOL
    Busing IS fun but like I said, it has it's cons too.
    The Western trips are better than East, TIME wise. Ontario takes 2 days to get through!! LOL

      You don't want to ride Greyhound in the US. They downgraded the seats BAD with the new 2009 and later buses. Incidentally, the newest Greyhound in Canada is a 2008, which was the last year Greyhound ordered comfortable seats. You don't even want to know how bad the new seats are.

      This one looks to be Vancouver-Kamloops on #1216 and Kamloops-Calgary is in the next video on #1218. You can see the bus numbers above the windshield. Both buses are getting retired. Now they run straight through Vancouver-Calgary.

  • @Chesterbarnes1
    @Chesterbarnes1 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    The driver of this Greyhound coach is excellent, he is professional, he is quiet, he doing the job and doing it smoothly and professional, yet watching whats going on inside the coach and outside. Excellent A plus for the driver.
