Vancouver Is Awesome, and we are dedicated to everything that makes it that way.

If you want to read ugly, bad news about this beautiful city of ours, you’re going to have to look to traditional media and other blogs; V.I.A. promotes everything that makes our city awesome, from old to new and everything inbetween. We’re like the human interest piece on the news… only different.

STAY LOCAL MAPS

We recently partnered as the online media sponsor of Stay Local Maps, Vancouver’s newest city guide with style. Stay Local will be showing tourists and locals the best spots to shop, grab eats, drinks, catch a live show and everything else that makes our city awesome! Long time V.I.A. contributors Dario Phillips and designer Calen Knauf have teamed up with David Pullmer to support our city’s local and independent businesses. The idea was sparked while Dario and Dave were living in Barcelona and stumbled upon a city guide that gave a true perspective of the city through the local’s eyes. The two came back to Vancouver and approached their good friend Calen to create an eco friendly, local guide with innovative design that’ll showcase Vancouver’s finest. Look out for Stay Local in early February and for now check them out at staylocalmaps.com!
