Many years ago, i had a girlfriend who lived in Sherbrooke, Quebec. We used to frequent Toronto quite a lot. Loved the city. The food, The people and the nightlife. I (Jim ) lived in Boston. It was a long-distance relationship that over time didn't work. I have been married to my dear Harriet for 20 years and we lived in Boston, Ma. for that length of time. We now live in Virginia where the cost of living is cheaper. In many categories Toronto and Boston are sister cities. The costs are very similar. In many bigger cities in North America, you'll find that. We love our Boston as you love your Toronto. Our longtime friends are there. We visit Boston when we can. Alina, as you're finding out in Toronto, the costs of long-term living there is becoming out of reach. So many great memories of Toronto. We hope to return there very soon. Maybe someday come and visit Boston, we could do a meet up there and show you around. Sending you much love❤ from Richmond, Va. Harriet, Jim and Yuki
So one conclusion: the rent is absurd! 1760 per month is a lot of money compared to most average salaries I think and other living costs. I myself have my own house in the Netherlands, paying 519 Euro mortgage per month, 1,3% interest wich is very low. But housing costs are insane for a couple of years now, as we have no space in the cities anymore and people are continue to coming. I bought 10 years ago, was very lucky but today I am not able to buy my own house again with the current conditions. Great vid, love your relaxed way of filming and presenting.
I am a Canadian who has been travelling the world since 2017. I am in Bangkok right now and my 1 MONTH rent is $299 canadian dollars, about a 5 minute walk from the nearest metro station. That includes high speed internet plus a TV with international cable and air conditioning. I even have a balcony with a great view of the city and this apartment has 24 security with fob key access. Canada is ridiculously expensive for housing now. I refuse to pay such outrageous rent. I spend about $$20 a day here in addition to my $10 a day rent.
How Stupid do you have to be to Pay a 100 Dollars for a hair cut ??? My Wife paid 35 with the wash too ! Go to China town or Scarborgh its cheaper . many Choses lady many ! @@AlinaMcleod
I feel like it’s been becoming a problem everywhere in the globe, I’m in Portugal right now, it’s so expensive but it’s not even the worse…has been impossible to find a place in Lisbon, Amsterdam… EVEN IF YOU GOT THE MONEY TO PAY FOR IT 😢 tbh I’m just living accordingly and I’m thinking about moving to Toronto in the next year! 😅
We are leaving Canada ASAP to be done with this. It is absolutely ridiculous the cost of things. Outside of seeing friends, I'm not sure why you would return to Canada Alina... unless you are coming back for 3 months for healthcare reasons or friends are that compelling, it's just a burn on cash compared to so many places. That and quite frankly the weather suck, the food sucks, and culturally because the country is so large and so diverse historically, it's very watered down. We are looking for cafe culture, markets, the stuff that is just not common here but is the norm in many places.
That's understandable. I did primarily come back to Canada to see my family and friends because it is difficult to travel so much and not have that support system in person. But also I am very comfortable in Canada because I've spent so much time here, thus making it a good place to recuperate after an endless stream of 'new'. But yes, the prices are making it less and less attractive compared to what else is available.
Alina ,you decorate the world by your immense beauty. You should not be charged at all for anything. You are a real joy of life, such treasure should have a status - national treasure!
The real estate is so pricey in Canada, unthinkable. Such a vast land with very little population, but still many home less people. But this video is good.
Your hair looks amazing. I would recommend my hair dresser in Bloor&Dufferin. Hair cut is 35-45 for women and the lady does great job. If anyone needs a cheaper but amazing saloon it’s Silk Hair Studio ❤
Another interesting video 👍 Re. the cost of living, with everything costing a lot more and salaries staying low, I wonder how much longer we can go before imploding.
Hello Alina! 😁🙏👋🌟 I hope your having a marvelous day! This is really a fantastic super excellent video! 😄👍❤️👏📹🇨🇦🥇💯💫✨🌟 The West side of the city of Toronto looks so absolutely amazing! The neighborhoods of Bloor West Village, Parkdale and QueenWest is magnificent! The art murals on the buildings around the neighborhoods is very cool! Also the view of Lake Ontario at Sunnyside Park looks marvelous! Even the food at the Yummy Momo and Lalibela Restaurant looks so very delicious! I would definitely like to visit the city of Toronto one day. It is a nice city! Thank you so much Alina to share with us this marvelous magnificent video. You are the best and greatest world traveler adventurer! 😃👍👏✈️🌎📹🥇💯🏆💫🌟 I wish you Alina a wonderful beautiful glorious blessed day. 😊🙏❤️👋🇨🇦👍✨🌟
Beyond outrageous ! Came to Toronto from Vancouver and Toronto turned out to be even pricier than Vancouver in some ways and for some things. Even men's hair cut at Aveeda on Bloor West started with 50 +
I like Parkdale, Toronto. It is a very beautiful place with diversity and a lot of different cuisine to enjoy. Every Wednesday, there is Tibetan culture dance pack with people. A lot of Tibetan restaurants and they are very hard working and compassionate people.
Proud to be a Canadian! 🇨🇦 I am a real, authentic Canadian Mountie! Maple Syrup, the Yukon, beavers, this is what Canada is all aboot. We all love Justin Bieber!
Well we renting a house here in NZ, the rent is 510.00 nz per week , not included is food, hydro, internet. The cost for hydro now in the winter is 170.00 nz plus, 110.00 nz for internet, unlimited fiber, groceries are about 150.00 nz for 2 people.
I started following you from Buenos Aires Argentina, I'm practicing English and watching videos, and I liked your videos, since I have friends living there in Abbotsford.😁
CDN $2,000/m in Montreal (that includes $800/m for rent). So it comes to CDN $67/day (=USD $50/day). If to count expenses without rent then it's CDN $40/day (=USD $30/day).
It sounds like you enjoyed the appearance of the food you had! The presentation of the food was actually so good. The colors, textures, and arrangement made it look not only delicious but also like a work of art. I would be hesitant to dig in because it looked so nice....LOL..!!!😂 Okay....take advantage of the various dining options to savor the culinary experiences Toronto has to offer. And WOW, Alina....you look absolutely stunning with your new haircut and that lovely rosy dress! The combination suits you so well and really brings out your beauty. Enjoy your tour of Toronto's west side and all the unique experiences it has in store!
You have absolutely gorgeous hair. But I'm married to a lady who has had anything but a shampoo in a salon for decades. She decided quite young never to shorten her hair. She just has a harstyle that she puts up daily with all of it up. Was fun for a while when surgery disabled her arms and she had to teach me to do every day what she did. Becoming a stylist in advanced years. I mean, it did get done, but we were both happy when her arms worked again.
I hope to meet you here in Siem Reap Cambodia, I am a Canadian who moved here full time from Calgary but I have watched some of your videos which bring back memories, I make my living as a software engineer but I am also a professional musician. I actually lived in Prince Albert at my former boss's place (Brian Sklar) and have played Melfort with the late Frankie Yankovic. In the 80s I played with Ian Tyson and have 2 golds and 2 platinums as his concert studio bass player and background vocalist. I will be watching for when you arrive or if you do to Siem Reap. cheers, happy trails.
Living in central Colorado, my rent is $25 a day and that’s all inclusive. If I had to live again on my own, my major expense would be food, which could easily exceed $200 a month! Canada today is an expensive country and my parents wouldn’t have immigrated there because of the affordability issue. Costs have literally climbed out of sight!
Canada is no more expensive today to live in than the USA, and the USA has no universal health care. $25 a day inclusive is not a normal cost of living in Colorado. Are you living with your parents maybe? Don't forget $74 US gets you $100 Cdn.
@@manuelfg2902 Frankly it's one of those statistics that I pay zero attention to because it doesn't sound very realistic. Certainly not for someone who has to find their own place and pay their own rent and buy their own food.
It's expensive to live in Toronto. My brother lives in Vancouver. It's even worse. It's still a blessing to live here. I used to stay at King st.West next to Queen st. I like the night life there. I'll try that Ethiopian restaurant someday. Presently, I spend a lot of money on gas. When I go out for dinner with friends, we go to the Keg steakhouse and bar. We already know how much we have to spend. But since we enjoy the ambience, it was worth it.
I did my internship in Toronto back in 2015 and it was way more affordable and great back then. Sad what it has turned into 😢 still will always have a great love for it tho ❤
Rent is only $300 a month for one bedroom at my Condo is available. Downtown San Jose is fun and close to everything. Who needs Toronto when you have SJ?
Life is getting more and more expensive here in Toronto especially rent, but you are also renting from Airbnb which is even more expensive, yes haircut price is ridiculous, after taxes and tips easy 70 to 80$
Sunnyside beach is amazing. Im there all the time in the summer. I actually prefer it over "The Beaches." The beaches is way too busy in the summer... but its still nice!
I've been watching your live streams and videos from my hometown Toronto, and they are really good, but for me personally they are kinda of a bore..lol cause I been there done that! lol After 45 years living in Toronto, I finally move out completely out of GTA to Orillia ... I even spent my early childhood in around Bloor West and wished I could move back there but like you said the rents are just too damn high I was priced out...and for my own mental health I needed to get out of TO,, too much traffic congestion, city noise was getting to me. Toronto does have nice old neighborhoods to live and visit like Bloor West but it's just too expensive to live there anymore. It's shame...Looking forward to see live streams and videos from your future trips to South Asia or Japan again or maybe Europe or maybe Greece?! 😃
Hey Alina, I'm in the Calgary area. Prices don't seem too far off of YYZ. Nice haircut. Women have always gotten hosed for haircuts. Great video. If you see Geddy or Alex (Rush) say hello for me !! Cheers from YYC.😊😊
Txs for the video, I used to live in Leslieville and visited Queen West often, had to move to the suburbs when COVID started. Looking forward to your Leslieville video, I'm eager to see what Queen East has become. You can visit the Leslieville Cheese Store if you like cheese.
We are from vancouver and are in the process of selling everything and leaving. We know many people from Vancouver who could sell their houses and fund the remainder of their lives with ease, but refuse to let go of their belongings and take that risk. It's a shame.
Back in around 1984-1998 Queen St West between Universtiy and West to Spadina. Was like the centre of the universe with many neat shops restaurants underground clubs concerts Much music on the corner of John Queens. It now moved further west but not as fun as used to be and expensive I feel many neighborhoods. Even Yorkville. Losing its lustre and specialness
The Yonge and college Starbucks becomes cannabis dispensary now. That was one of my favourites Starbucks before. And restaurants get a lot more expensive than before but food quality is declined. I almost cook myself now…..
Ilike all your posts, but I enjoy a lot more the recent ones ! Nothing like the present moment,,, besides I lived in Toronto many years ago near cabbage town and also in the east at Pape and Danfort, I really enjoy Toronto , I have some wonderful souvenirs from this town .
Really loved your video Alina. Even here in the US everything is so expensive anymore. Everything just costs so much. Looking forward to your next video!
Very nice phone case. Also, i hope one day you come back to europe for exploring. There so many countries and it would be helpful as of right now i only can afford travelling from greece to other european countries only.
That 1700CAD rent and 100 CAD haircut in Toronto Canada are enormous amounts instead come and rent apartment in Antalya, Mersin or in Konya City Turkey , pay 1/4th of that amount to rent. Minimum hourly net wage is 1.5 CAD in Turkey and half of all 31 million Total bu blue and white collar workers earn that hourly net wage and no need to tip those Turkish workers, it is like wild economy in the world. İ never give tip to anybody at barber shop, restaurants, hotels etc. You can save higher amount of money to expedite what kind of apartment you wish to purchase or you can make me Canadian
We love your video blogs, very helpful. In New Zealand 🇳🇿 we spent $ 12.00 for 2 cappuccinos, McDonald's be about $ 30.00 nz, this is the norm for fast food. If you're going to a restaurant you would spend for a meal per person, $ 25.00 plus. We were on holidays for a week, spend 700.00 nz on accommodations in Auckland for 4 days, and activities another 250.00 nz, snow planet and paradise ice.
My first time in Downtown Toronto and the cost of parking is $30 in 4hrs in an underground parking. There is cheaper parking for like $15 but it was far away at the CN tower where i intended to visit. Being from Winnipeg it was too much even food was very expensive. I had some proper lunch and it costs over $30 for one person but i think what made expensive the services fees.
Great video; yeah - in most major cities around the world the expenses would probably be around your tally in the end (less the daily haircut! :-) ) A walk-around is always interesting!
I use to live in Toronto but live in Ho Chi Minh City now I could never return to Canada Vietnam is so cheap and way more fun I can’t imagine how people survive there now with the inflation
Beautiful city. Great video. Nice haircut ! =========>Toronto, top 9 best city to live in the world (2023), is the most expensive city in Canada (2023) vs the average yearly salary of $62,050 in Toronto.

Toronto is a great place to explore when the weather is nice and the sun shines. not decayed like some other cities south.
Toronto is closer to the Equator than to the North Pole.
Most people who live there were not even born in Canada.
It is a city with no identity.
Beyond outrageous ! Came to Toronto from Vancouver and Toronto turned out to be even pricier than Vancouver in some ways and for some things. Even men's hair cut at Aveeda on Bloor West started with 50 +
It's so weird that this showed up on my feed. This is just a video about my neighbourhood.
thanks you you make my $1460 US monthly house payment on 6 acres on rural land far west of Portlandia seem like a bargain
When less is better. Less condos, cars, traffic. Love my Richmond Hill. ON
Cool. Looks like I live right around the corner from where you're staying.
I like Parkdale, Toronto. It is a very beautiful place with diversity and a lot of different cuisine to enjoy. Every Wednesday, there is Tibetan culture dance pack with people. A lot of Tibetan restaurants and they are very hard working and compassionate people.
I was in Canada in the 1980s it was very different from what you are saying now

I could've loaned you my hair clippers 😂
lol I'm good
If you visit central London I'm sure you will like the prices one bed apartment for one month is £3500 for one month :-)
Yikes
Ilike all your posts, but I enjoy a lot more the recent ones ! Nothing like the present moment,,, besides I lived in Toronto many years ago near cabbage town and also in the east at Pape and Danfort, I really enjoy Toronto , I have some wonderful souvenirs from this town .
Nice vlog!
I am learning English with your videos and a far more cause a great content. Thanks
Keep it up!
Walking down Runnymede Rd
Beautiful city- haircut looks great- just posting for the algorithm LOL ❤
Yes! Thank you! 😅
Good vibes Alina!# Toronto people know you!#
Really loved your video Alina. Even here in the US everything is so expensive anymore. Everything just costs so much. Looking forward to your next video!
Hey hey. Stop complaining, I think the US is much cheaper than Canada
@@bobbbxxxNonsense. How long are wait times for treatment in Canada again?
Very nice phone case. Also, i hope one day you come back to europe for exploring. There so many countries and it would be helpful as of right now i only can afford travelling from greece to other european countries only.
That 1700CAD rent and 100 CAD haircut in Toronto Canada are enormous amounts instead come and rent apartment in Antalya, Mersin or in Konya City Turkey , pay 1/4th of that amount to rent. Minimum hourly net wage is 1.5 CAD in Turkey and half of all 31 million Total bu blue and white collar workers earn that hourly net wage and no need to tip those Turkish workers, it is like wild economy in the world. İ never give tip to anybody at barber shop, restaurants, hotels etc. You can save higher amount of money to expedite what kind of apartment you wish to purchase or you can make me Canadian
Hair cut looks great. BTW, these prices are not that outrageous. They are better than any major city in the US. Plus, it's Canadian dollars.
We love your video blogs, very helpful. In New Zealand 🇳🇿 we spent $ 12.00 for 2 cappuccinos, McDonald's be about $ 30.00 nz, this is the norm for fast food. If you're going to a restaurant you would spend for a meal per person, $ 25.00 plus. We were on holidays for a week, spend 700.00 nz on accommodations in Auckland for 4 days, and activities another 250.00 nz, snow planet and paradise ice.
That’s wild
What currency you using?
Friendly natures welcome anywhere
My first time in Downtown Toronto and the cost of parking is $30 in 4hrs in an underground parking. There is cheaper parking for like $15 but it was far away at the CN tower where i intended to visit. Being from Winnipeg it was too much even food was very expensive. I had some proper lunch and it costs over $30 for one person but i think what made expensive the services fees.
Great video; yeah - in most major cities around the world the expenses would probably be around your tally in the end (less the daily haircut! :-) ) A walk-around is always interesting!
The lunch had cost five dollars
I’m in Ireland 🍀 and I would say it’s a similar spend amount here too…..Great Vid 👍
I love your hair cut .
It really suits you .
I love Toronto I grew up in the city .
But yes it is expensive now
lol you had exactly the same dish at the ethiopian restaurant as in 2021 and with same friend as well.. this must be really good :)
It is 😅
I use to live in Toronto but live in Ho Chi Minh City now
I could never return to Canada Vietnam is so cheap and way more fun
I can’t imagine how people survive there now with the inflation
Good Vid Nice Edit
Nice video 📸
Beautiful city. Great video. Nice haircut ! =========>Toronto, top 9 best city to live in the world (2023), is the most expensive city in Canada (2023) vs the average yearly salary of $62,050 in Toronto.
