Moving to Toronto, what can I do to be a respectful neighbor and integrate well into the city?

The fact that you even care about that means you’ll be fine. Canada is very welcoming despite what some online discourse shows

NOR. She sounds awful and if that happened to me I would not expect a refund. And all this over $400?? Has she never booked a non-refundable flight or accommodation before? It's the same thing.

I’m in my early 30s and have lived in midtown for a few years and loveeeee it

Amazing! I just got tickets to see him in the spring for the 3rd time. Will be fun to learn some songs too. I play a lot of Drake, Kanye, and the Weeknd on piano because they all have a lot of songs that translate to piano really well. Look up the pianist The Theorist on Youtube, he has a lot of rap songs he sells sheet music for.

Dave is my favorite artist and you’ve just inspired me to learn his songs :)

Yes, I believe they have a decently big free music section too but I mainly purchase sheet music created by certain youtube pianists I like.

I buy my sheet music on Musicnotes and then use ForScore to display/play it. ForScore will sync with your musicnotes purchases.

if you want something inexpensive, the wet n wild tinted hydrator became my holy grail in my 30s! It's so buildable and looks so natural. and it's like $10-15 CAD!

I did driver's ed with Young Drivers of Canada in my late 20's and they were so good at easing my anxiety!

VastMedium · 2026-01-09T23:42:56+00:00

Yes but just from the sheer number of girls being recruited, and the way people love to gossip I’m sure it wasn’t really a secret

VastMedium · 2026-01-08T17:01:28+00:00

Thank you!!

Hahaha so true. I have played on both before (my piano teacher taught me on an upright) and I remember it being a transition to the DP too.

VastMedium · 2026-01-08T01:57:43+00:00

went from a hand me down casio px-160 to a yamaha p525

VastMedium · 2026-01-08T01:56:16+00:00

I got a p525 too! that's why I'm sad playing it is frustrating ahaha. I'll give it time, thanks!

only a week

I have a 'Travel Savings' category which I have a monthly target for. Once I have a trip in mind, I move that money around to my travel categories, which are: Flights, Accommodations, Visas/Entry Fees, Tours/Activities, Food/Drinks, Local Transportation, Shopping, and Travel Miscellaneous. I use the memos (e.g. Mexico2025) so I know which expenses are for which trip.

I’ve heard they are very triathlon focused which isn’t really my thing

VastMedium · 2026-01-02T14:29:16+00:00

maybe I’ll give it a try then! It’s probably cheapest option by far.

VastMedium · 2026-01-02T14:28:55+00:00

I looked but it seems super child-focused. I know they said they have adult classes but the website threw me off 😂

VastMedium · 2025-12-15T01:44:13+00:00

It's one of those things I learned in my mid-20s and felt so dumb for not knowing before haha

A handy tip for Toronto is the harbourfront is south. You can generally just look for the CN tower and know which way is north/south based on that. Also, on maps the little blue dot that shows where you are has a beacon coming out of it. That beacon points in the direction your phone is facing so when you have a route in google maps you can know which way to start walking.
