Good stuff. The biggest hurdle is probably finding appropriate accommodations, it's tough as hell to find a legit decent, not shit hole of a place, that the landlord would rent out via online.
In person
Edmonton wise.
Found this out last time I went to Edmonton briefly, the guy I had spoken with had pictures of the place. It was clean and fairly decent for the price. It ended up being one of those, pile a shitload of people in, couch, living room, etc, run down & B.O, it pissed me off pretty good.
He looks at me, trying to sell the shit hole of a place. "trust worthy people", yeah, I'd have to be sleeping with one eye open scenario.
