People who have landed in the last couple of months - Lets meet/discuss - job opportunities, shopping, housing and other settlement issues. Lets meet near a subway/bus connected area , so that its easy for all to commute.

We landed on 21st June and are currently living in the North York , Toronto area with my aunt. I am a banker and my husband is an IT infrastructure manager.
We are actively looking for jobs and a place to live in a well connected area.

Any thoughts are welcome ..

Afin,

Truly speaking, I have no clue on the areas you mention & nor have I been to these places. Seneca & Finch is good & I have a family friend there. Availability depends on the time you require and will vary. Prices will depend on how interior you are willing to go and what facilities are available with them and at the close by places. You should be able to find them on Mls.Ca or some other renting website online. You will find, Condos, Apts, Flats, Town houses, independent houses, basements etc. It would have various facilities and features and rent may or may not include your heat & other utilities. So its basically your choice and you will need to land and see to decide.

Regards,

Yesterday's meeting was fabulous, i did not expect that it is going to so much of fun all day. Had such a pleasurable day after a long time. The company of new immigrants, sharing of info, exchanging views delighted me. I never felt that we were strangers and meeting for the first time. The exotic food also made my taste buds awake and I really eat a lot. Looking forward for next meeting. Thank you all ;D
