Calgary – Week 1
We have been in Calgary a little over a week and so far so good – despite being greeted by snow upon arrival. Thankfully the weather has returned to normal.
On Sunday we were driven around the city to numerous open houses. It was great to get out and familiarize ourselves with the city & to see what your money gets you.
The housing market in Calgary is VERY different compared to Vancouver. In just 10 blocks from Colum & Jen’s house Matt & I counted 25 for sale signs. And the best part? They are all in our budget. We don’t think we will have any trouble finding a house we love.
I still find myself getting a little homesick for Vancouver. It’s hard to adjust to a city where things are no longer in walking distance of my living space. Purchasing a road bike is on the to-do list (along with a car) so hopefully that will make things easier.
Will post another update after week 2. A few family get together’s in the next week which I’m looking forward to!
