Hi, I’m Derek
I’ve lived in Vancouver for 61 years
I speak English and some French
I am Group fitness teacher
I have loved living in Vancouver and taking advantage of its great outdoors. I have seen the city grow from a million in the metro to over 2 million. I have seen the changes both good and bad. Additionally having the opportunity to travel the world and interact with other cultures has prepared me to interact with all cultures. I love meeting people from all demographics.
