Long story short? I'm moving to Vancouver with Moony. Does anyone have floor space and a sleeping bag or two? We need some place to crash for about a week while we look for an apartment.

Can't help you, but good luck and congratulations, if they're in order.

:O You guys are moving to BC! :D

As for a place to stay, sorry I don't live in the city. :<

I just want to say that the idea of meeting an online forum acquaintance in real life and staying overnight in the person's home scares me a bit.

I hope you find a good place smile

You guys could try a hotel/motel.

It is nicer to have a cheaper place to stay though. :p

Yeah hotels are expensive as fuck. The one my friends and I stayed at on new year's was like $200. Then again it was in the state capitol of Texas on New Year's Eve and it was 5 blocks from the best part of Austin- 6th Street.

Yes, especially since the cheap hotel we're booked at is going to cost nearly $700 for the stay.

In any case, I'm not even sure if there are forum regulars here that live in or near Vancouver. :o

Alas, I do not live in Canada.

I don't think I know anyone who does either.

Good luck though!

You could use airbnb. It's where you can rent a room in someone's house for a short period of time. I looked it up and for a week can cost as low as $350.

Look up Hosteling International's Vancouver hostel. If the rates are the same as they were on my trip to Montreal, it's ~$250 for a week; if you can get one of the rooms you share a bed in (that are meant for couples), it shouldn't pass $350-400, I think.

That's the best I can do, though, sorry. I live way further north.

Umm, shouldn't you first find an apartment and then move?

It might be difficult to visit just to find a place, so they're just going to come settle first. Or that might be what they're doing.

Ah. Yes. Now that's the thing I hadn't considered as a small-country citizen tongue I'm used to being able to get anywhere in the country in 3-4 hours... but of course it's different for Canadians. (I've been there. The place is huge).

Yeah, I'm actually in Michigan at the moment. A quick daytrip to BC isn't in the cards.
