Back in 2013 or maybe 2014, my life in Toronto had a peculiar rhythm. After a long day, I often found solace in Cabbagetown, wandering through its labyrinthine back streets.

There were countless hidden alleys, narrow and winding, which felt like secret passages to another realm. I loved getting lost in them, especially at night, under the soft glow of distant streetlights. It was my personal escape, a magical little ritual that soothed my soul. The air would carry the scent of old brick and damp earth, a comfort I cherished.
