Susan and Geoff’s place is in a great location (about 2km away from UVic). It’s quiet but still close enough to shops (recommendations are on their fridge) and downtown Victoria (about 30-35 minutes on the bus). The house was a good size and the yard was big (but not fenced in - consider this if bringing a pet), only thing was I found the house a bit cold. Had to bundle up in a blanket or wear long pants to drink my tea in the morning - nothing drastic, but I wish I would’ve packed warmer lounge stuff.
