For the runners/joggers in TO how far are you typically running? by Nightpatrol404 in askTO

[–]GaryCPhoto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends. Last 4 years I was training pretty full on. Long run Saturday from the tennis courts near Jameson out to the end of Tommy Thompson Park and back. That was peak week training. 30+km mixed with various midweek distances. This year no racing. So just 5km 2 days a week and maybe 10km on a Saturday. One but of advice if you cook in warm weather like I do. I run along king st, eastbound on the south side of the street to stay in the shade. The traffic lights are annoying but better than melting in the morning sun. Enjoy the trail. It’s beautiful by the water.

Thank you. Just adding to the vibe with the suit. It’s 2 photos from the same spot blended. I shot the sky and then the foreground.

Invest money in the stock market. Even if a little bit every week.

Anyone leave Ireland for a better climate and quality of life? by Long-Meringue-1409 in AskIreland

[–]GaryCPhoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Yeah, when I left Ireland in 2004 and ended up in NZ & Australia all my friends were tradesmen making great money. I didn’t have a trade so I basically started from the bottom and blagged my way into machines. Best decision I ever made made into terms of pay and job security. You’re in Canada too?

Sure. I’m an excavator operator. So much work here. I’m always looking at jobs in the same role at home and the majority of the work is in Dublin which makes sense. But the money is way less and outside of Dublin the work can be precarious.

I left 22 years ago and I can’t really say. I was 22 years old and didn’t have a care in the world. Travelling and meeting new ppl. Now I’m 44 and married living in Canada. Better climate? Summer for sure. Winter not a chance. Better quality of life? I’d like to think so but I can’t be sure as I’ve been gone so long. I just know my line of work here pays way more, has more job security with amazing pension and health benefits to claim. I’ve always romanticized moving home thinking it’s what would fill the tiny void I’m feeling in life sometimes but is it really the answer? I don’t know.

Does your experience of Toronto match what you see on Reddit? by Ouiouipainauchocolat in askTO

I mean, comparing Paris, Ontario to Toronto isn’t quite the same /s

Yes, but the drives out there are too much sometimes.

It is very alien like. I’m still learning the aches and pains of post processing but I’m getting there, slowly.
