During a spontaneous road trip to Vancouver for the 1986 World Expo, a mother and her sister battled accommodation challenges without modern technology. After struggling to find a place to stay, they reached out to a busy visitor center where a dedicated staff member went above and beyond to help. Eventually, they were directed to a local couple who welcomed them into their home, showing warmth and generosity. Though initially anxious about their hosts going on holiday, they were reassured they could stay, illustrating the goodness of human connection during travel.
They welcomed us at the door, ushering us in and asking if we were hungry. Theyâd prepared dinner, showing genuine kindness despite not knowing us.
Just as we were wondering if we were going to have to sleep in the car, she told us the office had a list of Vancouver residents.
