Here’s the short list of my top 5 recommendations for Toronto:

A Tourist in My Own City of Toronto

I recently posted my friend Julia’s recommendations in Paris and today I have some from Navid about Toronto, enjoy! I’ll add in my commentary in italics again.

Walking Around Paris Diaries – Visiting Tuileries Garden, Eiffel Tower, and Champs Elysees

So we left off at the Louvre and let me start this post with my #1 tip I learned about traveling in Europe:

Travel Tip: Walk to as many places as humanely possible when it’s not raining because you never know when it will rain (or stop) and when you’ll have the chance to see some thing or place in person again.

Walking Around Paris

It’s so hard when you’re going to a new city to get an idea of just how far away things are from each other so I hope these maps are handy. In Paris, Molly and I hit some of the biggest sites all on day one and by foot! Here’s a map of the places we went:
