We are back in Flora's hometown, Vancouver! The last time we visited was over 7 years ago so we're curious to see how Vancouver is now and if it is still our favourite city in Canada. Come with us as we walk down memory lane with Flora and re-visit some of her favourite childhood places and eat some delicious food from both Granville Island Public Market and Richmond Night Market. This is the ultimate way to end our summer in Canada series!

Vancouver is the most livable and beautiful city to live as long as we can afford to live there.
It can't be livable if you can't find housing and when you do it costs more than half your salary. Vancouver used to be a nice city twenty plus years ago but it's sunk into a place where everything revolves around people being obsessed with the value of real estate.
Rain in Vancouver you’ll have two options pay rent or eat if the sacrifice one or the other it doesn’t matter if you have a Well, paying job or not And construction. That takes forever. Welcome to Vancouver.
The city itself is very generic . It is the location which makes it great
@@neofils Agree 100%. The location is amazing and the weather is still excellent however everything else is lousy.
Everywhere can be livable if you are rich enough..
That is a beautiful beach in Vancouver in my opinion. Also Vancouver is 43 percent Asian. The people in Vancouver are nice as well. Flora and Note it made my day to see you both do a Vancouver tour in this Canada series. You both are the best.
Thank you Dominic for following this Canada series :)
I can see why people say Canadians are nice people, in Melbourne the ratio of Asians is like 10% or so and people start to complain that Melbourne has become sub state of China
Loving Note’s reaction to chicken pot pie… (a personal favorite of mine as well Flora!). Much love from the USA. Vancouver looks amazing.
Thank you for these amazing videos in Canada. Can't wait to see your journey in Japan. 😍
Thanks for following our Canada series! ❤
Canada is so beautiful thanks for showing!
Flora & Note, u guys r getting better each time! Keep up d good work :)
Love the subtle hint about the Japanese tayaki tasting the same or different haha Vancouver looks amazing!
hey, thanks. great to share Vancouver. ❤ .. the food looked super nice all over
Me and my wife spent the weekend for the Coldplay concert, was our first time in Vancouver and we loved it, definitely going back ❤
Thanks for the tour and video of Vancouver, very nice and take care.
Welcome back! Vancouver really is beautiful, but very expensive. Can't wait to see where you land next.
What a beautiful view in Canada
Welcome back!!!!
Thank you for this. I really enjoyed this. 😊
We spent 3 weeks in Vancouver in July. It is a very lovely city. We plan to go back for a few weeks next July. You guys gave me some new ideas of places to go. Thanks for sharing.! The Blueberries, oh yes!
Blueberries yes highway roberry! 😂
still worth it imo. most nutritious food on the planet...@@LuvMyLilBabe
I was there this summer and I'm going again next year because I love Vancouver ❤️
Great video!!! Loved seeing some new (for us) locations in Vancouver. Ha Ha - subtle hint about your next location???
Great video as always 👍🏼
😍 love this video 🎉 so much good memories 💓
you guys are the best canadians ever!
Amazing vancouver. Been there once on the way to manitoba
Welcome back!
LOVE LOVE Vancouver
Welcome back to Canada great job alwsys thanks ❤🎉😮
Excellent drone shots of Vancouver! I've always wanted to visit, but haven't made it there yet. From what I know it is the most expensive province in Canada. You lucked out with an amazing sunny day. Kits looks gorgeous too. Were you hinting you are off to Japan next :)? I have loved your Canada series!!!! Thanks for all your hard work and efforts. I look forward to your next series and adventures...love from Canada.
Thanks for following our Canada series! Vancouver is so beautiful but probably the most expensive in terms of accommodation. That's one of the reasons why we didn't stay longer to explore more this time.
Awww you guys really made me miss home! Love living in Thailand too but Van always in my heart. Hope you can get up Grouse Mtn (or Seymour, or Cypress) and Lynn Canyon, Queen E Park, Van Dusen Gardens, Lonsdale Quay, Indian Arm, fish n chips at White Rock, could go on and on... Enjoy!
We didn't know you're from Vancouver too! I feel the same.. I love living in Thailand but Vancouver has a special place in my heart. We basically drove around the city visiting familiar places and eating comfort food 😄
Great video! Someday you guys could tour Vancouver Island! Amazing nature, food food, amazing beaches!
I grew up taking the false creek ferry to granville island for a special fam day too…or a visit to lonsdale quay. Would love to spend a weekend staying in Van + doing this with my 3 kids but the prices really add up with 5 of us 😂. We are budget travellers so we are going to kuala Lumpur + Koh lipe + Lombok. I can see why you’ve left Canada. I will always call it home + do appreciate its beauty….we live on Vancouver Island now + are so grateful to travel to new destinations where it’s so much more affordable to eat + stay.
Steam bun look soooo good🤗
Love your vibe, chemistry and the general style of your video! Just found you, and you just earned my sub. Thanks!
Glad you found us!
Great video as i lived in the Vancouver areas of Abbotsford, Surrey, Delta 1994 to 1998 it brings back many memories of the very same places and a few i never knew about. Thanks for sharing this one. Bonappetite
i lived in vancouver from 2005-2009 and went back for the first time last year and it was just as amazing as i remember it. i wish i could afford to live there.
Wow, beautiful city 😊😊😊
You did a lovely job of covering the False creek area and Richmond food market. There is so much more here though that you’d have needed a video twice as long to cover it all. 🎉 ❤ . I’m wondering, what’s next for my favourite couple?
You'll find out this Saturday when we drop our new video!
Welcome back to Vancouver Canada. I have heard outstanding things, specially Chinatown. Absolutely loved the magic trick and boat. Food hall looked yummy. Absolutely love clam chowder. Yum doughnuts. The night market looked packed and excellent. Delicious lamb. Absolutely Loved Every Minute
Thanks so much Drew!
hope to see you guys while i'm out walking haha
You guys should do a mountain hike!
Beatiful British Columbia...expensive and breath taking sceneries. I love it here..xo be safe see u in J
Watching this video while living in White Rock (a seaside community 30 mins away from Vancouver) makes me want to drive to Vancouver right now.
Eagerly awaiting your visit to japan. You guys would get a kick out of halloween in tokyo
hi, just wondering what camera are you using for vlogging? i watched your vlog in vancouver and the shots are amazing! ❤❤❤
Thanks so much! We use the Fujifilm X-S20 as our main camera :)
That chicken pot pie looks great! It´s true that the fresh fruits and vegetables at a lot of these covered markets in many big cities around the world look amazing, but tend to be quite expensive.
Yeah that's true.. someone suggested we go pick our own berries! That would be fun too.
Yay, see u in Japan 😉😉
Flora, you look super cute when you were younger and have grown to be such a beautiful lady now. Well, l enjoyed watching all your episodes of this Canada series, so interesting, great contents with excellent footages and epic drone shots. Well done and thank you so much for sharing, Flora & Note. Bravo guys !
Thanks for following our Canada series, Chaw!
@@FloraandNote lt's my pleasure 🫰
I love Vancouver ❤
Amazing quality! You make Vancouver more beautiful than it is! :)
I am your big fan 🎉❤from Nepal ❤and lots of love ❤️
Flora & Note! You two are precious! We have to connect when I come on my next business trip to Thailand. - anyone ever notice a trend…. Flora..Everytime you try some food you like after Note… you almost always take it over and then Note has to say “you going to save the last bite for me??” Followed by flora: “lol. I wasn’t going to. You want some?” Followed by Note “yes. Of course I want some.” And flora always gets the dish 2/3 the size and if she really likes it… she just assumes the rest is hers 😂😂😂
I am very proactive when it comes to food I like 😂
@@FloraandNote bahahah 🤣 - yes! You’re curating diligence of culinary treats is sublime! - Note .. just break it in half and give her half. JJ.. really looking forward to the culinary coup d'é·tat with #floraandnote in #Japan 🇯🇵
I was in Japan this year in Osaka,Kyoto,Kawasaki and Tokyo 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Change a lots since I left in yrs 2000 December.. miss it at Vancouver
Hey there - just catching up - Vancouver looks pretty exciting - has a bit of a Goldcoast feel / Aussie vibe ? - luv it - Thank you 🙏 😃👋✔️👌
Haha maybe that's why we loved GC so much and felt right at home 😂
The Japan easter egg Taiyaki! Wonder which country is next... 🤣
I LOVEE THAT YOU ARE IN MY CITY
Lineup at Richmond night market? Holy moly.
Please tell us more about the Australian connection. Come back soon!!
We shared more about our story in our precious livestreams 😄 But basically, we met in Australia when we were studying abroad.
Vancouver welcomes back her Prodigal globe trotter Flora .. it’s ironic that you’re home and I’m over here in Thailand🤔. Isn’t it amazing how the world balances out?😉🤣 enjoy 🙏🙏
I prefer sunny Calgary to grey Vancouver in winter. Instead of buying local produce at Granville Island, which is mainly for tourists, you can u-pick blueberries in Richmond, Surrey, or Langley.
The produce stalls at Granville are there to rip off tourists that don't know any better.
Awesome vid guys. Would u consider moving back to Canada?
Not anytime in the near future because it's not a great hub for traveling and it's quite expensive to base there. But we're happy to come back to visit family and friends, even though they'd rather come visit us in Thailand 😄
❤❤
Love from nepal🇳🇵 i want come Canada guys.
Another wonderful vlog....perhaps you are staying in the northern hemisphere for a bit?😉
Yes we are! Just for a few months before we need our Thai food fix :)
4:45 😂😂😂😂 10:49 chocolate sprinkle i need it too fo sure😅
Big fan brother and sister
How come you didn't show east hastings or china town? :P
Gj on the video, and yeah, granville island is awesome!
East Hastings is a cesspool of filth, disease and the walking dead.Chinatown is a shadow of its former self as most Chinese and the stores and restaurants are now in Richmond.
nice series and i think you are going to japan hehe
😉
Hi guys. You missed Toronto. 😊
The cost of living has gone way up since you moved to Thailand. We will be in Thailand and kho samui in January.
Rob and Benci. Toronto 🙏🙏🙏
Koh Samui in January should be lovely! We miss the island but we won't be back for a while...
Wait, no Granville Street during the day?
Hi my name is Ali Mbaruk Ali.I am from Tanzania/Zanzibarr.I need to travel to Canada so what can I do?
Great job of showing some of the highlights of Vancouver. When you were looking at the berries at the market, I was thinking you could get such a better deal if you drove out into the Fraser Valley, where the berries are grown.
You don't need to go that far. Just drive 10 minutes to east Van and you'll find everything much cheaper. The fruit stalls at Granville island are a rip off and the women that work there are usually sullen.
Yummy food. Mostly 8 cdn.
It's absolutely perfect if you have plenty of money and not much else to do with it than to hand it over to our amazing, extremely competent and not corrupt at all government.
Where are he BLLOOPPEERS? hehe - You look like you are having fun in Japan... Cant wait until the next video.... Have you thought about two vids a week? Too much?? Thanks so much!
I don’t think that that Sushi is an authentic Japanese food because it looks like Sushi on Mexican Tacos.
But, I think Taiyaki seems to be authentic. I strongly believe you can eat an awesome Taiyaki less than 1/3 price in Japan. Now you are in Japan. So, enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine including your beloved Taiyaki. (^_^)
Are you going to Japan next
have you guys been to Toronto? It is also a great city in Canada
You'll find out this Saturday when we drop our new video! 😉
@@FloraandNote looking forward to it
CAD$32 a pound blueberries …… pretty crazy
❤❤❤🔥🇰🇭🇹🇭🇺🇲🔥💯🙏🙏🙏
when will you guys come to Pakistan
What's the best time to visit Pakistan?
Love watching your videos. ❤️Flora, I noticed you now have a tattoo on your arm, oh no you are too beautiful to get all inked up on your skin. I guess each to their own and I respect people’s choice but I’m not a fan of tattoos. Yes they are beautiful on some people but not for me. So is it Japan next?
This is me 😳😳😳$32.00 for a container🥺of blueberries and were they ORGANIC and sprinkled with gold??? Note’s reaction same as mine lol. 😂 ive several friends living in Vancouver and always wish to visit. So beautiful! Flora, while growing up there did you hike any of the wilderness or trails? If so, will you do it while there? What dish or food is considered a local treat one MUST try? Other than (bad spelling? Poutain?!?! Im so sorry for butchering! Loved the little wink winks-gee wonder where next…🤔hmmmm 😝love you guys! Safe travels good eats, happy trails🙏🏻❤️
We've done a few hikes in Vancouver but not quite enough time on this trip. I think fish and chips at Steveston is a must try along with White Spot legendary burgers and milkshake!
Did you go to Hastings st, what a disaster.
We've been having a blast! Can't wait to share more Japan videos :)
Welcome back to Vancouver. You guys make a good choice moving to Thailand. Vancouver is becoming unlivable. Everything is expensive and the crime rate is rising just like the price of groceries. That's why I stay most of my time in Chiang Mai and only back here in summer. I love Thailand.
$23 for a small box of blueberries.. ?
Good Lord.. I live in Mexico and it cost $3.50 for a plastic container of blueberries
I am coming to Canada, Barrie in april 2024
Hope everything goes well ❤
We wish you all the best!! 😊😊😊
You will enjoy Barrie Ontario. It is a waterfront community with nice beaches, hiking trails, restaurants, festivals etc. You will, also, only be about an hour's drive to the north end of Toronto as well.
U guys from China?
From Canada! Note was born in Thailand and Flora was born in Hong Kong.
Vancouver is not the best city in Canada ... a lot of issues about crimes ( highest in Canada, Surrey ), homless, drugs , people get killed in the subway and on the streets ,50 % asian and do not define Canada .. it rains 8 months per year , speak only one official language of Canada , has no historical and architectural places.... People in Vancouver has no idea about the history of Canada from the past 500 years , does not speak the 2 official languages ,,, the culture of Vancouver is a USA culture and asian ( China and India )..... I find people of VAncouver egocentric , no knledge about Canada and they think they have the best city with crimse, homeless, drugs and rain.
granville island tourist trap
Most of Vancouver is pretty amazing but the homelessness, drug addiction and housing crisis are real.
I stepped in human poop my last trip to Van.
Right off the bat wrong, kit's beach is not the nicest beach in Vancouver thst would be Wreck beach, no city interference!
You should show the centre Hasting street ! Thousands of drug addict ,dirt ,Holmes , smell the true Vancouver
One street does not represent “the true Vancouver”. You’re part of the problem.
Every city has good or bad. Despite all this issue, Vancouver is still the best place to live and enjoy .
@@janiceho6034 - Thanks for your positivity!
@@fuzzmuscle69 It's easy to be positive if you are one of the lucky ones that owns a home and has plenty of money. Try being positive if you can't even find a place to live and when you do you have to spend more then half of your wages on rent for a crappy apartment.
Why not show them the real Vancouver? Noticed you didn't go down to East Hastings?! That's also Vancouver. Right? Your just show casing the rich touristy parts of Vancouver. Not the real Vancouver!
Looks boring af.. as I expected from Canada.
It is boring. You can see everything in two days and yet they keep on calling it a world class city. The only world class thing about Vancouver is the prices.
what a rip off vancouver is...i cant wait to leave this city lmao
I would love to leave but I'm a care giver to a sick family member. One of my biggest regrets is moving to Vancouver.
