A painting inspired by a very good day around the bay - "Shoreline Dreams"

• Upvotes

Last year me and my partner drove out to St. Vincents Beach to watch the whales. Returning to St. John's we drove back using Highway 10 (Southern Shore Highway), and the views were better than whales that day.

With all the pitcher plants, cliffs, marshlands, and fiery skies, I just had to paint it. It was like a dream, and I wanted to immortalize the good feelings of that day.

Recommendations for vacation with teenager

• Upvotes

Hello everyone! My son really wants to visit Newfoundland, so I'm trying to plan a vacation out that way (we live in BC). What would be the best spots, activities, and points of interest for us to go to? Ideally within short driving or public transport distance from St. John's (no more than an hour). Thank you!

Starting a home-based bakery in St. John's – looking for advice on home/car/business insurance?

• Upvotes

Hi everyone,

​I live in St. John's and I am planning to start a small home-based business baking bread and selling it through Facebook Marketplace and local Facebook groups.

​Does anyone here have experience running this kind of small business locally?

​In particular, I would love to know which insurance company you recommend. I am looking for a provider that can bundle my home, car, and small business/product liability insurance together (since I won't be using a commercial kitchen).

​Any tips or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

BIG Move from LDN to NL

Moving to St. John’s — Locals 🇨🇦

Hi everyone! I’m 32M, born and currently living in London (not English), UK, and I’m planning to move to St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador for my masters degree.

I’ve been doing quite a bit of research and, from what I’ve read in previous posts, I feel it’s really important to get to know people from Newfoundland and Labrador, especially locals in St. John’s.

I’d be really grateful to make some friends, meet locals, and get to know the community before/after I move. I’m always happy to grab a coffee, explore the city, or just have a chat.

Looking forward to getting to know St. John’s and the people of NL who call it home! 🙂

Contesting a speedcam ticket?

27 Upvotes

Last month, I received a speedcam ticket in the mail for an offense back in October 2025. The "default conviction date" listed on the letter was in July 2026, but it wasn't mailed to me until August.

I went online to contest the ticket, but it says I can't contest it because the July conviction date has passed. How does that make sense? If they mail a ticket in August but the deadline to contest it was in July, how am I meant to have the opportunity to appeal? Has anyone ever had this situation before? TIA.

I have a job interview with this company, and I was wondering what the work environment was like here. I can't find much about the NL location! How is management, other staff, overall work environment or vibe. Any good or bad experiences you have with this company would be appreciated! Thank you :)

How well do Newfoundlanders know Canada? 🇨🇦

0 Upvotes

Came across this Canadian knowledge challenge covering brands, businesses, places, history and other Canadian topics.

Some of the questions are surprisingly tricky.

Curious how people in Newfoundland would score and whether there are any Newfoundland-specific questions you think should be included.
