It's definitely been a busy week since the last post. In that time, Andrea has continued packing, while work has picked up for me as my busy season approaches. We've donated a bunch more of the extraneous stuff that we've accumulated over the past year, and We've also been doing some more planning for the move and have booked our moving company. The big thing this week, though, was that we have locked down a place to rent in Toronto for the next year! We've just signed a lease to rent a 3-bedroom house near Yonge and Sheppard. It should work out really well, as it is pretty centrally located, near the subway, highways, and shopping, and shouldn't result in too long of a commute to my new office in Thornhill, nor to downtown Toronto.
The difference between rental prices in Toronto versus those in Vancouver is shocking. In Toronto, we'll be renting a 3-bedroom house, with a yard, for nearly $300/month
less than we're paying in Vancouver for a 2-bedroom townhouse!
Andrea and I are both really excited to having the living situation solved, as we can now start to do some of the other things that need to be done - changing addresses, start cancelling our services out here, and start getting our services set up in Toronto. We are really looking forward to being back in Ontario. Keep a look out for the change of address cards. 45 days until the journey begins!
