Description

We are both born and raised in Vancouver and love the city and love to travel. Tamara directs a clinical legal program at UBC's Allard School of Law. Andrew is a lawyer in downtown Vancouver. We have lived in our home for 24 years and raised 3 kids here. We try to travel a couple times each year and love to immerse ourselves in another place and culture. Andrew loves to cook and garden and Tamara is a keen baker. When we travel, we typically look for places with a great food culture and places where we can be out in nature. We love beautiful landscapes, hiking, ocean swimming, and food adventures. We have travelled extensively in Europe, and less extensively in Asia, Central America, Africa and Australia.
