Moving to Start a New Life | Our drive from Ontario to Newfoundland | Canada Road Trip
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- We decided to make the move from the city life in Ontario, to a small town in Newfoundland to begin our very first homestead!
We sold a lot of our furniture and shipped everything remaining to our new home. Then we packed our truck and left for the Rock!
Over the course of 5 days, we drove across Canada, mostly on the Trans Canada Highway, leaving our Ontario lifestyle behind.
As we were travelling with our 3 month old, and our bengal cat, we lengthened our trip and drove around 5 - 6 hours each day, planning on sight seeing and stopping for many rests throughout our drive.
Unfortunately there was a lot of rain, and if it wasn't raining it was over 40 degrees outside, so due to our little one and bengal cat, our sight seeing didn't go as planned, but we still had an incredible adventure.
We are excited to begin our new life in Newfoundland, learning to be more self sustained and teaching our little one along the way.

This reminds me of my family's move 4 years ago to retire at 50 in NL! We were so happy to get past Toronto and never looked back! Best decision ever!! Love NL❤
I retired at 55 from Ontario 3 years ago and moved from Ontario to New Brunswick, best decision ever
Never having to drive on the 401 sounds great!
I echo that. I drove tour bus for many years and the majority of my trips began by having to go thru Toronto. The rest of the trip was a breeze in comparison except maybe Los Angeles. Retired now and 401 is a dirty word in my world except the city I live in is next to it. By the way. You will enjoy NFL
Made the same move in Sept '22. After 31 years in ON, and having worked from home during COVID, I saw no reason why "home" couldn't be my home province, as I prepared the wind-down to retirement. While there are things - and especially people! - i miss about ON, I'm happy, overall, with the decision. Despite the weather and the higher price of everything except housing.
in 2016 we moved from BC vancouver Island and drove across canada..ten hrs a day ...8 days...u haul truck...cost 10,000..weve live in cape breton now 9 years best move.
Wow talk about a move!!🙌🙌❤️
The wife and i have visisted Cuba 12 times.Newfoundland is almost exactly the same size.But NL only has 500,000 people were Cuba has 11 million in the same space.If you make good money or are retired then NL is the place to live.
Good Job !
love your video i moved from Ontario to Alberta 2014 drove 5 days to oil field in alberta wooooo great memories from that trip best decicion i maked now i drive .Lamborghini
Really enjoyed this vlog me and my partner been thinking about doing this drive since we arrived in Canada, my question the price of gas for this whole journey a ballpark idea? If you dont mind me asking thank you. As a child my mom wpuld watch Young and Restless on NTV from St John's because would be day ahead of CBS my fascination grew with seeing clips and news of St John's always wanted to visit pn my bucket list at one point maybe even thought abput moving there but since experiencing Canadian winters probably not anymore but its beautiful from what i have seen over the years.
St. Johns can have some nasty winter storms from time to time, but coming from Ontario, where we mostly had small storms quite often, it feels like less of a winter here in Newfoundland than we have ever experienced in Ontario. But with that being said, every winter is different! As for gas, we drive an F150 and probably would ballpark gas to be around $600. That also includes our adventuring around off the main route. Also, gas was around $2 a liter during our trip. 😊
more wypipo in NL, nothin wrong with that!
Where in NL did you move too? I’m in NL wanting too move too Ontario hahah!
You're going the wrong way! Lol

@@tsho08 haha i came all the way from labrador city😅
you are going the wrong way, turn back now and thank me later......
I retired back in Newfoundland from Ontario but I miss Northern Ontario. I might sell the house here and move back to Northern Ontario.. they tax everything here, health care is worse than Ontario and people in Ontario are more welcoming of newcomers, you take your life in your hands because of the culture of drinking and driving is exceptable here hasn't changed since I was young like other places. I guess it's why car insurance is so high, inflation in Newfoundland is crazy
All Newfies care about is money. If you are from away, watch your back!
