It's just me - no car, no friends, and very little money! 🙂

I've got volunteering covered (per my previous post) but I'm just looking to get out of the house more and get comfortable with exploring the city on my own as I'm kind of a recluse.

I live quite far down in the southeast so I'm hoping whatever you suggest will be transit accessible and easy to get to.

Thank you!

Canyon Meadows Theatre isn't that far off from the C-train station. Cheap movie tickets, last I remember they were $5 each.

Fish Creek is pretty nice and also not that far a walk from the station of the same name. Good for a nice nature walk.

If you're willing to take the train further, there's a lot of thrift shops by Chinook Mall you can explore, and the Devonian Gardens downtown is a great spot to sit and relax.
