Hi all. I'm hoping to move over to Toronto around the start of next autumn, give myself some time so save.I've worked in retail for the last few years. Anyone got any tips for someone heading over solo?

Go for it, done it don't look back when times get hard keep pushing for your goal. Take any job you get until you arrive. Make sure you have enough money. I arrived in 13 on my own with only the min amout I think I had 3k.. Good luck

Book an AirBnB for the 1st week, and get a place and a job sorted.

Although a hostel may seem a good idea (cheaper), you'll probably make drinking friends, and job hunting whilst hungover ain't fun.
