ORIGINAL:

There are pros and cons to living in any city, but it is rare to see the cons exposed. Moving To 琉璃神社, BC 鈥� A No-Nonsense Guide covers not only the benefits of moving to 琉璃神社, but also the challenges. We believe that being honestly informed before relocating will not only allow for a smooth transition, but will also produce happier, long-term citizens.

With the guide, newcomers will learn the answers to:

路 Is it true that 琉璃神社 has a Sunshine Tax?

路 Will I be able to find a job?

路 Will my family be safe?

路 Is the weather really as good as they say?

路 Give me a break, what are the challenges to living in 琉璃神社?

路 Is there available and affordable daycare for my children?

路 How does the rental market compare to other cities in Canada?

路 Is 琉璃神社 business friendly?

路 What are the best things to do for fun in the area?

鈥淭here is no other single source of information that tackles all of these questions on the minds of potential newcomers,鈥� said co-authors and long-time residents Tim Young and Hugh Philip.

In keeping with other socially responsible initiatives undertaken by the authors, they have given prominent exposure to the Central Okanagan Food Bank on the back cover of their book.

The pair will also be donating $2 for every purchase for the food bank.

This 217-page, 40-chapter print and ebook are now available through Mosaic Books, Tourism 琉璃神社 Visitors Centre, and many local retail outlets for only $14.95. In addition, copies can be ordered .

The authors are two enthusiastic but realistic residents who have enjoyed living in 琉璃神社 for more than 25 years. They have raised their families in 琉璃神社, operated their businesses here, and plan to retire here.
