You are a legend and don't ever stop that free spirit of yours.
@@ezequielc11 Gabriel will see each and every corner of this earth..no ifs ands nor butts..Gabe is determined to see it all..
Welcome to my hometown! So glad to see you made it here after years of following your channel. I remember the days where you were travelling on extreme budgets and working as a dishwasher
Gabe, thanks for sharing the travel memories! Living in the burbs (no regretes) I have to admit downtown Toronto rivals any well known & respectable metropolis on the planet. What I don't envy is that it seems super expensive to visit attractions & sit down for a meal. Apparently you visited tourist hot spots, hope you have time to visit less well known but relaxing areas in the "six".
LOL at the Blue Jays part.
She was hot!
Damn right !@@fittebanan
@@fittebanantoo thick, all yers
Awesome place to walk around.... especially at night with the building all lit, walking trails and parks with coffee. The view from the island is nice also
Love that you got to visit St. Lawrence Market! There is actually a 2nd floor below with many more vendors.
I see, good to know.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos That building across the street in your first shot is going to be the new North Market.
Nice tour of my hometown. The downtown core can admittedly look a little utilitarian, but, like any city, there are numerous interesting neighborhoods. The Beaches, King and Queen streets, Yorkville, Kensington Market, The Annex... Just info, for anyone planning on visiting Toronto and wanting to explore some other areas with a little more vibrancy.
Great video tour of my city! Although you missed the second lower level of St. Lawrence Market. haha
Welcome to TO! Being following your channel for many years ❤
Hello
Thanks for the tour of Canada Gabriel 😊❤ waiting for your travel adventures.
Just one tiny part of Canada. Trust me, there's much, much more to see than just Toronto.
Awesome video Gabriel i see Toronto just impressive besutiful Canadian City as for me i see you were born in Vancouver Canada and great to send you greetings Blessings brother 😎✌️🌞
You were so close to my home In Toronto. How great it would have been to run into my favourite UA-camr. I will definitely try out Baro on King St. Had never heard of it before. Thanks for taking us with you on your travels. Laura
Looks like a very nice clean city. I had no idea the Violent Femmes are still around lol I saw them back when I was in college. Awesome. Have a great weekend.
Thank you for the interesting videos about Toronto- a remarkable and charming city! I am happy that you began a new series of travel abroad. Your travel videos are most interesting and fascinating. I am eager to learn which country you are going to visit in Europe outside the Schengen Zone! I wish you a good luck!
My hometown, glad you came.
Welcome to my City! I have been following you for years.
While you are in Toronto a cool place to go eat is the Old Spaghetti Factory downtown- really neat decor
Great video again!🤟 Living so close outside of Jasper we're having terrible forest fires destroying over 350 homes in Jasper 😢
Such a shame. As you might know I worked in Jasper and filmed tons of videos there: www.youtube.com/@GabrielTravelerVideos/search?query=Jasper
@@GabrielTravelerVideosyeah I've been watching your videos for years 🤟
12:15...dam
I think she knew she was in the shot... lol
MY CITY!!!
Mine too !!
@@Nature_with_Peter_KaneThen move to Coburg
Thank you for the fabulous tour of Toronto, it is bringing back lovely memories of my visit in 2012. I remember going up CN tower and seeing how vast Lake Ontario looked from up there, just looked like an ocean, really amazing. Maybe next time you can get up to Quebec City, it is beautiful too but more European. Safe travels to Dublin.❤️😊❤
Glad you're back, Gabriel. From Ireland are you coming back to Cyprus? It and Ireland are the only 2 remaining EU countries out of the Schengen zone!
I lived in Toronto for seven years. Love that market
You need a Gabriel Traveler shirt that says 'but I won't see this interesting thing, I'd rather be in my room' 😂😂😂
A blessed Good Day Sir Gabe Wowwww 😍 My Dream Travel Destinations Canada 🇨🇦 Beautiful 😍 Country and Nice Place , and Streets, and I love the Goodvibes of this city of Toronto, thank you so much sir Gabe for your Wonderful Walk around tour video Take care Godbless from the Philippines ♥️🇵🇭😊🙏👏👏👏❤
Welcome to my city!!! Did you miss the legendary peameal bacon sandwich in Carousel Bakery at St.Lawrence Market? Welcome Gabe!
Welcome to Canada, big fan and following for a couple of years.
Live two hours west of Toronto in London Ontario
You missed Berczy(?) dog fountain just near St. Lawrence market, also Kensington's and Chinatown.
Welcome to my home town 😊
Third, lol grateful you took me along on your journey
This city centre looks more alive than the other concrete jungles. Still such a difference with European city centres. Canadian and American cities are designed totally wrong in the past i feel.
For me a city centre should be the heart of the city. You can see Toronto is trying to do that! Beacutifull city.
None of this video was in the heart of the city, which i would put as Nathan Phillips Square or Dundas Square
@@TheTroyc1982I would describe the city centre as all of downtown, not confine it to just a spot or two. And I definitely agree with the poster above - Toronto is quite lively both downtown and along the main thoroughfare of many satellite neighbourhoods (e.g., midtown, the Danforth, Riverdale, Parkdale, Roncesvalle, etc).
Good lord , that Blonde Toronto blue jay was smoking 🔥
Cheeky Blue Jays fan!
A very beautiful place with an even nicer talk about yourself and experiences of Canada.Churches surrounded with skyscrapers alternate with houses decorated with street art.Our Czech-Canadian writer and translator Josef Škvorecký lived in Toronto.He founded the exile publishing house ,,68 Publishers,,there.In the early 1990s,he published banned works by Czech authors in exile here.Meritorious activity.
Are you a hot Czech woman?
Czech girls are lotsa fun
@@CallumScottieCambell Mostly yes😊
Hi Gabriel, it's tough to travel to a city when you don't have any plans. The restaurant was nice, with a good amount of food for the price you paid. I'm sure at this point you're thinking about traveling to Europe, it will be interesting to see where you are heading in the fall.
🙂❤👍Thank You Gabriel Watching from New Brunswick Canada 🙂❤👍Safe Travels🙂
I like French girls in Moncton
Hi from Moncton!
@@tammycarter7661 From Quispamsis NB
You’re in my city!!! That’s so awesome 😊
Brilliant video Gabriel, will you be heading to Niagara Falls?
Welcome to Dublin, if I see you around I’ll say hello 😆 (I live there)
In Toronto right now at the same time! Hope to bump into you at some point Gabriel! Drinks are on me!
Cool, if you see me say hello.
Check out Kensington Market, Chinatown, graffiti alley, Queen street west, Yonge Dundas square
Hi nice video Welcome to Canada i live 100 km off east Toronto .
Hi Gabriel I met you yesterday on King Street West. Will you visit Casa Loma in Toronto at least the outside?
Hello dear
Hello Gabriel my friend , I live 3 hours from Toronto , near Windsor , havent been to Toronto in many years, no desire to go there either.Rumour has it that there are no Canadians in Toronto.
Canadians are all in the reserve!
Oh Gabe! I guess you really don't know sports! Hockey is our game, but not in the summer! 🇨🇦🇨🇦⚾️
So it is lacrosse all the way in the Canadian summer? Not yet on these Olympics (last time it was in 1908 for medals), but it will be (again) at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
@@OjstraFew people care about lacrosse buddy
And?
Rogers Center does host football and soccer too.
thats BMO field
Crucial information
not anymore after the renovations
@@joelcollins5586For soccer. Don't the Argos still play at Rogers sometimes?
Amazed at how good this city is looking! Pretty much back to pre-pandemic standard?! Clean, tidy, no graffiti, no tents, no masks, loads of people about! Looks great! 👍
No graffiti in the parts he showed. Trust me, there are plenty.
"Clean, tidy"? You would think.
"No tents" There are many encampments
"No masks" Like everywhere else?
@@martinc.720 Toronto is the best city in NA at the moment . Nothing even comes close except for New York.
@@martinc.720 stop spreading bullshit
There are tons of tents
@@EuroNation All lies.
Far way from the Pacific, yes, but the train from Union station will take you there
Gabe is way up north!!!
Toronto is very beautiful
Uh no it’s not I guess you don’t get out much if you think TO is beautiful.
Dublin? Cool! Come back to Liverpool Gabriel
I sense he's in Dublin to fly Ryan air to Greece I bet
@@BrianWeber-gt4ho i thought he'd be bored with Greece by now
Yup I was wrong on Greece for now
Haircuts 💇♀️ are cheaper than the cn tower.😊😊😊😊😊😊
Wild guess of next country: Montenegro. It's a small country in Europe, not in Schengen.
Excellent guess. 😉
Love Toronto
Free Palestine 🇵🇸 👍
why? its full of people you would call infidels...
go and visit the marinas they have great restaurants . saludos
❤❤❤ Gabriel 👍
Toronto! I still want to go
Like a more European NYC;)❤
That is more Montréal
@@ehjo4904Twenty years ago I'd have agreed with you 100%, but Toronto has made great strides towards Europeanization and is almost catching up to Montréal in some spots.
Awesome 👍😁
Have you ever done the ring road in Iceland?
I've been to Iceland three times but never driven the ring road, it's high on my travel list.
Can you not get 2x the Schengen allowance if in two different passports? Eg Canadian and American?
Do they really count it up?
Welcome to my Toronto ❤❤❤
Heard Canada has a lot of Raves, would love to see you in a rave if that’s not a problem. 😄
Thanks for showing Toronto, maybe you will run into the rapper from there 😬
Raves? Are you in high school?
@@JonnieSlade-fh2cg are you in your grave?
@@ZknotInF no, but unlike you I grew out of that crap
I like real music, not computer generated rubbish
Thaks you for your video
I'm italian and we would to move to canada ....but we have to choose rhe city.
Toronto has one of the largest communities of people of Italian heritage of any city in the world outside of Italy. Montreal does too. There was massive immigration to Canada from Italy in the 1950's and early 1960's.
Go up the coast, i live 11yrs i work there dorntown east side ❤❤❤😊😊
Cool.
It seems I did a similar walk to you but in the opposite direction during my visit to Toronto (which was at the end of winter) a while back. I do remember happening upon an interesting Eskimo exhibit somewhere near the lake. Thanks for bringing back pleasant memories!
Eskimo? 🤦
@@JonnieSlade-fh2cgAmericans still say that. They're not quite as woke as Canadians, fortunately for them.
@@terryomalley1974O'Malley, the strange thing is that in Canada the exhibit would not have been called an Eskimo exhibit. So why did she rename it? Kinda strange this Eva girl. Also, most educated Americans, woke or not, stopped saying Eskimo years ago. Eva is obviously a dinosaur 🦕
@JonnieSlade-fh2cg Not true on both counts. I'm Canadian, and we called them Eskimos until the 1980's/1990's. I remember in elementary school in the 1970's learning about Indians and Eskimos. Inuit is a relatively late addition to the vocabulary in bith countries, and is still nit common usage in the US.
@@JonnieSlade-fh2cg You're obviously young and ignorant of everything except the very recent past.
Welcome back to your birth country, Gabriel! It's been a while. Are you still a Canadian citizen? 🇨🇦
Yep, you pretty much can't lose your citizenship as far as I know.
Come down to Wexford Gabriel ❤
NICE CITY
@12:15 well hello hello
lumpy lol
@@turboplazz lumpy? Tres bueno..oui beun
what are you planning to visit in Ireland ??
if you have time ,i can take you for lunch one of days.
Ye ole pirate looking ship!
FYI: American College Football will return to Ireland for the sixth time in twelve years with the Aer Lingus College Football Classic between Florida State and Georgia Tech at Dublin's Aviva Stadium on Saturday, August 24, 2024.
ok
That should be a fun game to see😊
Hello, Gabriel the Travler.
Ck out the
GEOLOGIC GALLERY | BOUTIQUE
346 QUEEN ST. W
T-Rex Skull (cast) made from resin and molded from the original bones
Cool to see. Interesting place. I wuz there today
Your thumbnail got my attention
Where’s next? Iceland? Norway??
Dublin and then...
Hi Gabe, are you goin to Niagara Falls?
No, visited there the last time I was in Toronto.
looks like a very expensive lunch in a very expensive city
in a very expensive country.. why do you think canada has the highest debt to income $ ratio in the world....
😊❤🇧🇦
My guess is Iceland.
I still can't get over how huge your appetite is for such a small guy. I'm 6'2 245 and I can't eat half the portions Ive seen you eat all through your travels. Im betting you'd give Joey Chestnut a run for his money
He does a lot of walking and that probably allows him to eat larger portions.
That's because you live on the couch and eat pies
👍👍
The girl in blue😍
Is this what you do chuckles? Dream about girls in YT vids? 😏
Come to halifax :)
Surreal we're both in the same city lol
Cool. 👍
Go to ALBANIA, Gabriel
Good idea: www.youtube.com/@GabrielTravelerVideos/search?query=Albania
@@GabrielTravelerVideos Love it G!
Question, can you enter the Schengen Zone for 90 days on your American passport, leave, and then reenter with your Canadian passport?
Good question, but logically it would be illegal since it's the same individual.
It would likely work, but it's risky. I wouldn't try it because if they catch you, you could get banned from Europe.
@@F2D2C2no, bad advice
@@IzzyHaye It's not advice, it's a question.
@@dccoulthard the implication was that you were suggesting illegal behavior
Just out of curiosity what is the name of the restaurant you went to at the end of video?
Baro.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos how good was the service?
It was all around excellent, great service and food but high prices.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos I can imagine
I was shocked at the Blue Jays part ...guess when you travel for 35 years, you skip MLB...it's all good. They are in last place anyways...😮
Pretty sure that a lot of people who don't travel don't follow sports.
@@martinc.720perhaps that's true in your alternate world 👌
@@martinc.720 Yeah, probably right. I would not say "a lot" in my experience though. I have been in Mongolia in the mountains and seen kids with Michael Jordan Jerseys, playing basketball. It is mind blowing how far US sports do reach though.
@@martinc.720Speak for yourself Martina, most travelers enjoy sports.
@@HermannHimelheiken I did not even say anything to the contrary.
Nice attempt at insulting a stranger online for absolutely no reason though. You must be feeling so proud of yourself
I have a suspicion that the country after Ireland will have a Mediterranean coast 🤔
You can put money on it. 🍺
What camera 📸 do you use Gabrielle😊?
I guess a GoPro
DJI Osmo, there's a link in the description.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos Thanks,it's really good 😊. Will check it out!
I was up there in Toronto a few times. It sure ain't what it used to be. Sad. I don't understand why the Canadian government allowed it to happen.
Toronto is better than it's ever been right now and I have lived here since 1989
@@TheTroyc1982 Well fella from what I understand, the city began to change in the early 80s. Very unfortunate, but Canada is a large country with many nice places to visit. 👍
thats some cheap room you got. most hotels downtown are 500$ and up
No doubt, it was a super lucky find.
❤🤍❤
Toronto has gone down hill a lot the past few years. Still a decent city to visit though
Have you decided against a haircut 💈✂️
How tall are you, if you don’t mind my asking? You have super long legs.
Gabe, for your Canadian audience you have to learn to say Trahno. 😅
And then he will be the only person to say it like that.
Canadians understand that not everyone talks the exact same way, they understand what he says.
@@martinc.720 Dude, you need to lighten up. Way too serious.
@@martinc.720most real Canadians say it like that.
@@martinc.720they say Turano or Chrano
@@VolkerHelmich Am I? I'm glad you got to know me so well through a comment.
If you want to see real Canadians and their culture, then visit the Maritime provinces, especially PEI, NS, and Newfoundland.
anything outside of toronto.. ugh
@@iluv2_travelvery little true Canadian culture left in Toronto. Perhaps in the museums 😂
@@iluv2_travel the City of Toronto is just a meeting ground for foreigners, it's not what is considered traditional Canada. If you go north to Barrie or Orillia then you can see Canadians.
Canada Torre in so p.p
And i lovets canada for to lOng do desk sisi bi orgilnalßsssssssss
Awesome comment, thanks for that 👍
