A Love Letter
I love Toronto. I love that the simple decision of turning right or left will lead to two completely different neighbourhoods within 5 minutes. I love that walking is a viable option provided time and weather aren't too persuasive. I love that my roommate and I can go skating on a random week night at City Hall. I love that shopping is Queen W…west of Bathurst. I love that the Distillery District is like a time warp. I love Pedestrian Sundays. I love the neverending array of brunch spots. I love bike paths, bike lanes, and bike racks. I love corner stores selling produce, making them convenience stores. I love BMV. I love that on a nice day everyone seems to be as in love with the city as I am. I love Trinity Bellwoods. I love two-toonie Tuesdays. I love that CAMH is at the heart of arguably Toronto's coolest neighbourhoods. I love the diversity. I love that dirt bars and red-rope lounges can co-exist on the same block. I love that there's a neighbourhood called The Beach, despite the lack of Leonardo and blue clean water. I love that the term Yonge and Eligible couldn't be farther from the truth. I love that looking up and seeing the Tower reminds me I'm home.
