Toronto Festivals & Events for Next Week (Jul 7 - Jul 13)

Hey Torontonians,

I took some off from my work yesterday and went cycling in Toronto Island with Toronto Bike Share and drank some Matcha at Gateau Ghost. It was an awesome day to enjoy Toronto as it’s less hustling and bustling :D

One fun thing is that the day-pass for bike share was unlimited 90-min sessions but I always mistaken it as I can use it up to 90 mins in a day, with unlimited times of taking the bicycles. Turns out it is unlimited times of “max. 90mins cycling sessions” in a day so it’s a pretty good deal. 😂

Anyway, checkout what you can do next Monday (7/7) to Sunday (7/13) below! Hope you have a great weekend❣️ Missed out? Catch up with our previous newsletter here.
