Ultimate Canada Travel Guide: Expectation vs Reality | Yalla Habibi Podcast

from Yalla Habibi · host Scott and Shelby

Here’s your ultimate guide to Canada. We talk huge fluffy pancakes drenched in maple syrup, the quiet family neighbourhood that made Scott feel like he had stepped back into childhood, and how Toronto somehow feels calm even when it is busy. We share the unforgettable beauty of Niagara Falls, nearly driving into the USA by mistake, the reality of getting around when taxis cost a fortune and why Canada felt far less American than Scott expected. In “Jet Lag Judgements” we reveal what struck us first after landing, while “Vegan Voyagers” puts Canada’s plant-based scene to the test, including one maple-covered dish we still think about. Finally, in “Worth The Trip” we share the highs, the frustrations, what you need to know before you go, and whether Canada earns a place among our favourite countries.
