I love knowing behind-the-scenes bits about any movie, even an amateur one, like this is. So here are some bits for you:
-I made this video about two months ago… there’s swearing in it, and it’s unedited because I have no idea how to do that (yet), so I’ve been shy to post it.
-You’ll notice (vaguely) two dimples on either side of my face – those are caused by those invisible braces, which were part of my List from 2008. My teeth are nearly perfect now. A good investment.
-Our luck hasn’t changed with the real estate market, unfortunately. We’ve spent every weekend since September, after returning from our trip to Portugal, looking for a house that doesn’t go into a dreaded bidding war. Apparently the Toronto real estate market was impervious to the recession.
-Last May, Rob and I sold our renovated, funktified loft (where we threw lots and lots of parties) to rent an apartment in the neighborhood of our dreams. It was a leap of faith to live very much in the moment and for the sake of doing the things that make you happy. And to reinvent our lives, of course.

Aw, I love your video blogs! I have yet to work up the nerve to make one of my own.
I love Roncesvalles too (all those Polish delis and cafes…yum!)
We sold our condo last fall and have been renting as well (West Side! Bloor and Ossington! I love this area). We are thinking of buying again but I’ve been hearing tons of stories from people about all the crazy bidding wars that are going on right now. Good luck with the hunt. I hope you find the perfect home! xo
I love the video… you guys are so adorable. I hope that you find a home soon :).
Toronto blows- and I’ve lived there.
For 15 years.
Move to California!
Best vlog ever! You guys are too cute.
Good luck with the house hunt. We just started about a month ago.
I love this video! It’s so cute and you guys are adorable. Good luck with your search, I’m hoping the market gets better! <3
How fun! Love the video. good luck with the search, the market seems to be bad just about everywhere. Took us 14 months to sell our house due to lousy offers.
