I have an academic job opportunity in Victoria, British Columbia. Please help me before I make a very big decision. Tell me more about the area!
My job offer is in downtown Victoria. I hear the weather can be nice even though nearby can be very wet and cold. I love nature, people, and many aspects of Canadian government and Canadian citizens. I speak English, Spanish, and German. I'm looking for the real cost of living (taxes, food, gas, recreation, housing in or out of the city). I love hiking. I am a middle-aged, single male. Thank you, in advance, for any advice you can offer!
