Thank you for posting this as its not far from where I grew up and lived.....the memories

[@vagabondtom2969]

Wow, that looks like a beautiful place to "be". Unfortunately, can't get there from here(Vermont) yet. I loved that little cafe, I think I'd be there every day ))) love your style, keep up the good work! Peace...

[@sarassuitcasediaries]

Hopefully that will change soon :) I went to that cafe almost everyday I think haha its amazing! Thank you!

Was just there (in the smoke sadly) & wish I'd seen this first! I have done the Cowichan River & cycled the trestle trail then swam in the clean waters of Maple Bay & paddleboarded in nearby Mill Bay. But no hiking due to smoke. Duncan Farmers Market was great & like you said so many cute shops! Guess I'll have to make it back there to try out the rest of your top 5!

[@sarassuitcasediaries]

That's awesome, such a hidden gem right! I love the Duncan Farmers Market. Glad you enjoyed your time there!

My family was considering moving to Duncan when we came out to the island but ultimately chose the Comox Valley. Was hoping to do a trip this summer to the place we almost moved to, so this video will be a great jumping off point for my own research.

I think the quarry is private now, i was turned away when i went down and was told i was lucky to not get a fine by whoever was excavating. Just a heads up.
