Why I Chose to Travel and Live my Life in Toronto

While I agree that my city is one of the best places to visit and live, there are of course pros and cons that should be considered.

I have been rubbing elbows with Torontonians for more than two decades and find it appealing in many ways. I have travelled, lived, worked and play in this city for over twenty years and I can tell you that it deserve the honour. It is, yes, Toronto still is at its best.

Pros:

• Suburbs is one of the best ways to travel and get away from the big city
• The transport system is so convenient and spans a large area
• Many prestigious schools in and near the city
• A great opportunity for the educated
• The country's financial and manufacturing hub
• Longer, hot summer though too humid for some people
• Parks, lakes and recreation are some of the best leisure options
