A Taste of Community at Kami Inn

The entrance of the Kamloops Inn, downtown on 354 Victoria St
Sometimes the most interesting stories in a city come from everyday places. In Kamloops, local cafés and restaurants are more than just places to eat. They are spaces where people meet friends, have conversations, and experience the atmosphere of the community around them. One place that holds a unique story in the city is the The Kami Inn. Once a familiar gathering spot in the community, the Kami Inn was known by many locals as a place where people could come together, share meals, and spend time with friends. Over the years, spaces like this have played an important role in shaping the social life of the city.
For this audio story, I spoke with someone who remembers the environment and experiences connected to the Kami Inn. Through their perspective and the natural sounds captured for the story, the podcast explores what places like this meant to the people who visited them. Local gathering spaces often hold memories and stories that go beyond the food or drinks they serve. They become part of the identity of a community and reflect the everyday life of the people who spend time there.
Press play to listen and hear how one local spot reflects the everyday social life of Kamloops.
