Manage episode 282212180 series 2855497
Welcome to Calgary Living where we discuss Calgary lifestyle, community and homes. If you are new to the City, welcome. Calgary is friendly, sunny and has the best backyard - that being the Rocky Mountains. Take a picture, they seem to change daily. I'm Diane Planidin, your local Realtor with Royal LePage Benchmark. One of the things you will notice about Calgary is the glimmer of art and culture that surrounds it. The Vibe is on point - probably due to the young people that call it home. The average age in Calgary remains under 40 - so you will need to keep up.
It’s easy to get around Calgary and you will notice it has many walkable communities. The Inner City is full of culture and sweet neighbourhoods. Most people are surprised when they get here. That’s why we call it cowtown, keeping it a bit exclusive for ourselves.
Living in Calgary is like living in a Snow Globe. We have these fantastic Chinook winds that create an arch over the City and give our Winters a warmth you won’t find anywhere else. Calgary is the 5th most liveable City in North America and we have over 120 different languages spoken here. The Diversity is what makes Calgary full of Culture and what makes it unique. Which brings me to the Culinary scene.
We Calgarians take our food very seriously. Some of the Top Chef’s in the country are here and because of the diversity, we can dine on foods from around the world. From French to Brazillian, Vietnamese to 5 Star Cuisine. We love our Diners and Dim Sum. There is a thriving industry with an abundance of craft brewers and local distillers, Coffee Roasters and Farmer’s Markets. We love local.
The fun thing about Calgary is how connected the entire City is through pathways, over 1000 km of riding. Plenty of parks, fishing and something for everyone. Even a ski hill. Some people think we are land locked but they would be wrong. One of the reasons Calgary is located where it is, is due to the abundant water that flows through the City. You can Surf, Sail and when the conditions are right, float down the river on a hot summers day. Where else are you going to find a major metropolitan City with these stunning natural surroundings?
Calgarians are also creatures of habit. We tend to live in a certain quadrant to set up our nest. The City is designed with areas specific to North, East, South and West. During this show we will discuss different communities and hear from Calgarians of all ages, what makes this city a great place to live. We will also provide tips on purchasing a property here, whether you’re a first time home buyer or have a Million Dollar Listing, there is something for everyone.
I was born in Calgary and have moved around the country and even to other countries, but no matter where I roam, Canada is my home and I’m excited to share my hometown of Calgary with you. Welcome,
