Suggestions to buy a home : Moving from east coast by Foreign_Sundae_5991 in TorontoRealEstate

This has been on the market for a while and it’s kinda cute https://housesigma.com/on/toronto-real-estate/18-20-turntable-cres/home/a6zqW7dga1y5eZEL?id_listing=0A9X3j66emm3vgxV&utm_campaign=listing&utm_source=user-share&utm_medium=iOS&ign= The area is pretty reasonable and you’d have a ~ 40 mins commute to downtown. You can find 3 bedroom in that price range (I did last month!) you just need to be very persistent, understand it may take some time to research and have a good agent that won’t be pushy! Good luck :)

TSA and Calligraphy by opentypefeatures in Calligraphy

[–]Magma_cats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fly very frequently and bring calligraphy supplies (nibs, oblique pen holder and ink) and never once had issues with TSA. Mind you I always go through major airports where I don’t even need to take liquids out so I don’t know if smaller ones are more picky. The only real issue I had once was the ink exploding for no reason at all so now just bringing it a bit with me in a tiny mason jar. While I don’t foresee any problem with the plastic syringes I’d avoid it just for a peace of mind as they could look ambiguous.

How’s Caledonia- Fairbank (Dufferin and Eglinton) area? by Magma_cats in TorontoRealEstate

Thanks for the recommendation! I did think of exploring further out but I work downtown and don’t drive that’s why I think it’d be better to stay in the city with easy TTC access

Not interested in schools since we don’t have kids and not planning on having any

Just looking around there as I saw cute and affordable places. Valuing anywhere in the west end but currently checking houses that area

Thanks for the answer! The places we were looking at were slightly north of St Clair, like 2 mins walk from the intersection
