A very good job pf catching the vibe throughout Torornto considering your limited time constraints. I lived there until my late 20s. Now put Vancouver next on your list...especially between late spring to early Fall. When there...make the trek to Whistler... only 1 1/2 hours north.

Hey! Guy in Toronto, here!! I just discovered your channel, and I love it so much!!! :D Toronto truly has a lot to offer in terms of international foods. Heck, there was even a Burmese/Myanmar restaurant here, for a bit. Sadly, she seems to have more or less retired now... ;( But her food was truly the best!!! :D There is another Burmese/Myanmar restaurant here, too, but it's also more fusion Burmese/Indian food. Still really good, though!! I highly recommend trying the Khao Swe coconut curry noodles and green tea leaf salad, if you ever get a chance to try Burmese food!!! :D Also, somehow, I feel like it's only people in Toronto who seem to know about having Somali food here... As far as I understand, we're one of the few cities in North America where Somali food really took off and became a thing cause' of immigration etc, the other examples being Minneapolis Minnesota in the States, and I think even Ohio, too...? And Perhaps one other place there. I don't know if I remember all my information with those correctly, but I know of Minneapolis, and they actually have more Somali population than even we do, although the numbers here are quite high, too. All I'll say is, it's genuinely some of the best food from ANY cuisine I've ever had!! Oh, and you really gotta try the tea and Somali ribs, too!! (Beef, not pork!! With their culture being Muslim, and stuff. :P And that's also how I made the discovery that I like beef ribs better, anyway, tbh. :p Lol) I've subscribed!! Keep scintillating out senses with your serene content!!! <3

Having lived 13 years in the city, it is still interesting to experience it through the senses of a visitor. Your vlog is a bit different, in that you provide us a more introspective account of your experiences. Really a good presentation! I will now have to check out some of your other submissions.
@JamesD-iw6pr4 күн бұрын
Hi Michael. Your videos have popped up on my recommendations a lot over the past year, and you have very interesting things to say. However, for the amount of content you have created and the quality of the videos your subscriber count is very low. I think a part of this could be the rehearsed nature of your presentation. I think a lot of people who watch travel content want to feel like they are there with the person in the location. Even if you are in your apartment you can get your feelings across as to what it is like to be in the city you are talking about. I think your videos would be a lot more engaging if rather than reading from something you wrote before the camera started rolling, that you gave us your opinions in a natural way. Eye contact is important, so if your eyes are mostly on your screen and only occasionally drifting our way it kills the connection a bit. Again, I like the things you have to say and the comparisons you make, but for videos that are supposed to be about the senses, some of the life is sucked out of it because of the style you have chosen.

When you say not dry, do you mean it's usually humid? I'm sure it rains often, but I was mostly referencing the way the air feels. Where I'm from in the US, it's so humid the air, even on sunny days, can feel thick and wet

Oslocat here, I think Stockholm has a bit more variety in restaurants, bars and coffee shops, more coherent architecture compared to Oslo which has a fusion of many styles which I think is a bit confusing. Oslo is quite big but the interesting places are in a rather small area, whereas in Stockholm I think larger areas give that same feel overall. I can def see that Norwegians could fall in love with Stockholm but also vice versa. We are lucky with being so close to the nature. Out of all the big metrocities I´ve been to in Europa and US I would say Paris is the most unique and perplexing one. Real stunner

You didn't mention or go to Fort York. A British fort in the downtown of Toronto. On the exhibition grounds there is Scadding Cabin, a pioneer home that was moved from the Don Valley. (they predate Canada too) There is also Black Creek Pioneer Village, with many early Homes, farms/barns and an Inn. If you like History, You would also like that.

Jack Astors has locations everywhere and yes, likely if you live here, you've been there. With respect to your comments about urbanism, I would tend to agree that Toronto does it well with its neighbourhoods, however, the suburbs do not have the infrastructure with respect to transit and roads to accommodate the population and getting anywhere in the city is generally a nightmare. I avoid that by living downtown, not something everyone can afford, and on that note, house prices and rents recently have risen to a point where few can afford to live throughout the city... which has increased homelessness, forced people out of the housing market, and trapped people into staying in their rent controlled units. All factors that have an upward pressure on prices.
@asenseoftravel15 күн бұрын
Completed understood - we have the same problems even here in the Washington, DC region, which by American standards is one of the "best" in terms of the urban fabric/infrastructure. Hopefully Toronto can keep up its infrastructure with transit in the front and center!
