Was remote before COVID, but pandemic madness and home prices in Toronto had me itching to get out. After 25 years in Toronto I moved 3.5hr drive North to a beautiful city with gigabit internet, lakes and wilderness. I got a house more than twice as big for 1/3 the price of what I sold for.

Because of the reduction in personal burn rate, I was able to leave my soul sucking job and join a tiny startup to get back to my roots.

It's hard to make friends as an adult during COVID, so there's times when it's lonely for sure.
