Default Just Moved to Toronto

Hi All,
We arrived in Toronto on 23rd August with our 2 children and are now settled in our rented house in Thornhill Woods, Vaughan. We are on 3 year TWPs and my husband is working locally while I work in Downtown Toronto.

It's been a really busy time settling in and organising all the usual stuff but feeling settled now and wanting to meet up with some expats! The city is a great place and so would like to meet up at lunchtime for general chat and to sample some of the great food courts! So would love to hear from anyone happy to share experiences so far and enjoy a chat and coffee either in Downtown or otherwise in the Vaughan area.

We like what we've seen so far here and are keen to build up a network of friends so that we don't miss our family and friends in the UK too much! Cheers, Karen

If you're looking for a free lunch come to the ranch and chop down some trees.

"Smallholding" seems so vulgar, it puts me in mind of the Ivor Biggun song.
