Hopefully moving to Canada....

I'm applying on thursday for a 2 year canadian working visa. Fingers crossed I get it. If I do plans are to head to vancouver, try get a job and a studio (or at least access, I've done a bit of research) and blow lots of glass. I've been lampworking for about a year as a hobby and am proper stoked at the idea of being soewhere with a properly active scene.

Any of you lot from canada? Any advice for a late 20's uk citizen when heading over? If anyones living that neck of the woods and advice etc is appreciated.

Peace
