Justin the Couchsufer and Performing @ The Comedy Corner

So one of my apartment is open for 3 days so I decided to live downtown for the moment.

I got a message from Justin a French traveler who has been train hopping. I gladly opened up my home to him and his stories. He has been traveling everywhere and just train hopped from Montreal to Toronto yesterday.

Apparently he was sleeping on an open cart which carried lumber and it was freezing in the night. 9 hours of train traveling on the cold metal floor is definitely something to tell your kids about one day. I really admired his sense of adventure and if I didn't have my airbnb there is no doubt in my mind I would join him for the next leg of his trip.

Anyways after Justin showed up we chatted for a bit before heading out of the Comedy Corner. There was an Open Mic and I signed up to do a 10 minute set. It was really a slug fest and not in any good sense. All the comics sucked, myself included. But the good thing about my set is my delivery is getting better than previously so I am happy about that. I tried out some new material, stole a bit from another comic from Korea and told some personal travel stories. I need more practice to get better.

After my set I took Justin around the downtown core area and saw some new things myself. The Toronto sign by Nathan Phillips Square is really cool at night.

Today Justin is going to Niagara falls and when he comes back we will go to a language exchange together.







Peace from Toronto.
