Toronto is an incredibly underrated travel destination. It’s the largest city in Canada, and, lucky for me, is a four-and-a-half hour drive from Detroit, Michigan (although I’m from Kalamazoo). As a lakeside city, it has plenty of stunning views and a plethora of diverse communities. It’s drivable, although parking and traffic can be a bit tight.

Toronto was full of diverse neighborhoods with amazing food and museums. Their Chinatown was vibrant, and there were plenty of hidden treasures (like Graffiti Alley) that were full of life (and free!).
