Her Instagram post also showcases several California spots, like Confusion Hill.

Driving from the State of California to B.C., depending on departure and arrival points, can take anywhere between 15 and 30 hours, so Hadid would’ve spent a lot of time on the road with her enoutrage.

Hadid’s post elicited many comments featuring Canadian patriotism and suggestions from B.C. residents.

One comment read, “Welcome to BC.”

Someone else made a recommendation for Hadid to visit Wolf in the Fog.

The Wolf is a sea-view restaurant in Tofino, “inspired most of all by the oceans.”

Hadid, whose full name is Isabella Khair Hadid, was named model of the year by the British Fashion Council in 2022. She’s made numerous cover appearances in magazines like Vogue. In 2017, she broke a record for most Vogue September covers in one year, appearing in five international editions.

At one point in time, Hadid was one of the world’s highest-paid models, with her Wiki suggesting she earned a whopping $19 million.

Hadid, who is almost 30 years old, has Palestinian roots; her father is a Palestinian-American. Reports suggest he was a Palestinian refugee.

Hadid has also made several TV appearances, as herself and as various characters. She has also appeared in some music videos, including the video for In the Night by The Weeknd.
