WAFO-29 downtown in Old Towne
So I got a tip from a friend about the great breakfast scene down at Fuego Old Towne Eatery in Market Square. If there’s 2 things I love it is a great breakfast spot, and working remotely! So, I checked in for a sesh recently…
WAFO-28 Got coffee, got cake
I was pleasantly surprised in the stop here at Cat’s Coffee and Cake on Douglas Street in the heart of downtown Victoria. I like these high-top seats to work from. Looking out at the street is nice, and gives me a bunch of elbow room…
WAFO-27 Shatterbox Coffee in Vic Public Market
There are many tables to use in the Victoria Public Market, if you’re a remote worker. The entire market seems to have good WIFI coverage, so you’ll have no issues connecting there. The pictured spot above is actually ripe for people-watching, so keep that in…
WAFO-26 tapping keys at the Taphouse
Decided to try a new patio space today, and enjoyed this stop at the Yates Street Taphouse. Plenty of elbow-room on this October afternoon – I had my Macbook Air set up here to do a bit of homework. IIRC, I was on the #TELUS…
WAFO-25 working from the 18th floor
I’d like to issue an honourable mention to this space at Vista 18, on top of the Chateau Victoria Hotel down on Burdett Street. I don’t work from here often, as this is typically an after-hours place to hang out – say, a Happy Hour…
WAFO-24 Another Moka House stop
I ended up here on a recent morning when I didn’t have enough time to reach another WAFO destination. The Moka House coffee shop at Shoal Point is right next to Fisherman’s Wharf on the Victoria Harbour waterfront. This location is about a 2 minute…
WAFO-23 Working on a road-trip
This photo was taken on the same road-trip as WAFO-22, a day-trip to Vancouver. When we got to our destination near City Hall, I had some time to wait in a parking lot, and the skies were clear. Instead of working from the front-seat, I…
WAFO-22 Working from the Salish Sea
I feel the series wouldn’t be complete without a shot of a remote session from a workstation carrel on a BC Ferry sailing. As a one-time frequent-floater on both Coastal-class and Spirit-class vessels, I’m quite familiar with using these spaces. You get power that is…
WAFO-21 Connecting in from Rock Bay
I stopped by the Union Pacific Coffee shop on Herald for the first time earlier in the summer. They were under renovation at the time, so I bookmarked a note to come back someday. Once they re-opened, I was surprised to find that they’re offering…
WAFO-20 a nomination for this remote-work location
I wound up at Spinnaker’s back-patio one day recently, not to work, but pulled out my machine anyway. Such a lovely scene here over-looking Victoria’s Outer Harbour, under a clear blue sky. This patio has potential as a remote-work location, but I couldn’t lock into…
