in all honesty your best bet is to get here now. if you arrive in october you almost surely wont find a place to live. its the olympics, and alot of long time locals are losing their houses, not to mention one-season-wonders.

if you do manage to find a place though, you wont have any trouble meeting people from the uk.

look for a guy called rowan hobson on facebook, tell him jack whelan sent you. hes from england, as am i, and he did a season there least year, and may be again next year. he could give you some useful info. his profile pic is someone hitting a table in whistler, you should be able to find him!

best of luck man, also, if you get a place, im expecting to be allowed to crash on your floor! even though you dont know me! im a student out in vancouver, and drive up to whistler the whole time!
peace

we (myself and two friends) have the same idee. we like to go to whistle next season but we arent sure because of the olympics. do some of you know better places to ski (in canada). and where the town is also fun to live?

lots of good skiing, Kicking Horse, Revelstoke, Banff (Sunshine, Lake Louise, Norquay), Big White, Sunpeaks, Jasper (Marmot Basin). List goes on, Banff is good times, a little les disneyland than whister and the town is still fun.
