Yay I'm in Toronto!!! Have done my bit for Canadian Tourism and have enjoyed the following:
- gone up the CN Tower,
- took a boat tour of Lake Ontario,
- got sprayed by Niagra Falls,
- attended the Summer Street Festival,
- visited the Art Gallery of Ontario
The first hostel I stayed at I had two lovely roomies, Cindy from Korea who's studying English in Calgary, and Silvia from Switzerland who's travelling and about to work on a farm north of Toronto. Spent time with them individually as one left when the other one came so I had companions for the week I was staying there. The hostel itself was a little overwhelming as it was huge and had a bar which meant parties every night (and a little underwhelming in the amenities department). I needed somewhere a little less rowdy where I can think about finding a job in peace and be well rested for any interviews. I found another hostel just down the road and it's been a delight staying here. Lots of great people including Anna from Melbourne who's done the ski season and heading to the UK in a few month's time.
