Taraneh Ghajar Jerven

Taraneh is an ardent fan of all things hyper-local. She covers lifestyle including urban culture, travel and fashion for a variety of Vancouver-based and international publications. You can check out her full publications list here. You can read her regularly on Kitsilano.ca, InsideVancouver.ca, and GranvilleOnline.ca.

As a relatively new Kits resident, nothing makes her happier than meeting people in her chosen ‘hood. She plans on sticking around for the long haul. She intends to burrow into the community one handshake at a time.

If you happen to recognize her by her gigantic hair as she cruises W. Fourth on her trusty bicycle, do say hello. If you’re shy or she’s going too fast, please don’t hesitate to email a story idea to Taraneh@Kitsilano.ca.
