Why not vacation in your own city?

I’ve just returned from an amazing vacation in Spain – maybe a not so #humblebrag?! Can’t help it – I’ve wished for it for a long time. And it was pretty much exactly what I expected – outstanding and yummy!

So wonderful that coming home was a bit of a downer. But, I don’t want it to be. Vacations are incredible. It’s like a different world. Thing is – you have to come back to reality. If you’re independently wealthy – stop reading now.

If you’re still with me – you have to work for a living like I do and understand that vacations are a wonderful perk that you are lucky to have once in a while.

However, does everyday life have to be boring? I think not. I’ve decided that you can have a “vacation” anytime you want – wherever you live.

Do you know everything about your own city? I don’t. I spent 6 fabulous hours at the Prado until I couldn’t even look at another painting (or stand long enough to see one) but I don’t think I’ve spent more than a few hours ever at the AGO.

That’s going to change. I’m making a list of things I’d do in Toronto if I were a visitor. Then I’m gonna do them. One at a time so I feel like I’m on vacation all the time in my own city.

Until I can jet away somewhere else of course.

Who’s with me?
