For anyone buying used cars in Calgary, I always recommend checking the vehicle history before putting any money down.

My EV handles Calgary winters surprisingly well. The range drops about 30% in -20 but I charge at home overnight so it's not an issue for my daily commute. Zero regrets.

On a related note with the Flames, yoga studios in Calgary range from beginner-friendly to advanced. If you're just starting out, try Calgary Korean BBQ in Varsity. Really welcoming instructors who don't judge. GFG!

Pro tip for winter driving in Calgary: slow down on the overpasses.

If you're driving Deerfoot during rush hour, my pro tip: take Barlow or Macleod as alternatives. Slightly longer distance but way less stress. Deerfoot at 5pm is basically a parking lot.

Just discovered Jinya Ramen in Cougar Ridge and wow. Why didn't anyone tell me about this place sooner? The Chinese is authentic and absolutely delicious.

Alberta Health Services wait times can be long but the quality of care in Calgary hospitals is actually really good. I've had great experiences at Foothills and South Health Campus.

Man, comedy scene in Calgary is underrated. The Laugh Shop and Yuk Yuk's both bring in solid acts. Great for a different kind of night out.

If walkability is your priority, you really can't beat the inner city neighborhoods like Kensington, Beltline, or Mission. Everything you need is within walking distance.

Anyone else in the same boat?

For a rainy day activity, TELUS Spark is amazing - not just for kids. The adult-only nights they do are actually really fun and educational.
