    Toronto is not only Canada’s economic capital, but it also has one of the most diverse populations and has been classified as one of the world’s most livable cities.
    		 
    But Toronto’s past and present are full of weird facts and tidbits from the truly trivial to the seriously strange:
    		 
    The name ”Toronto” first appeared on a French map as ”Lac de Taranteau,” derived from the Iroquois word tkaronto.
    		 
    Today, Yorkville is a trendy downtown shopping area but it was once a cemetery for those who could not afford a church burial; the cemetery was removed in the 1870s, but human remains keep turning up at every modern-day Yorkville construction project.
    		 
    The land on which Toronto was built was purchased from the Mississauga First Nation band for a few hundred British pounds, 2000 gun flints, two dozen each of kettles and hats, all the hand mirrors they could carry and 100 gallons of excellent navy rum.
    		 
    Olympic sculler Ned Hanlan got in lots of midnight practice rowing crates of whisky for his bootlegger dad. 
    		 
    William Davies, whose pork-processing company earned Toronto the nickname ”Hogtown,” died after being butted by a goat.
    		 
    The abandoned Queen Street underground streetcar station is a location for the latest remake of the slasher movie Nightmare on Elm Street.
    		 
    And many more fascinating facts.

    Learn that there is another way to live than collecting more stuff, burning through cash on things we don't need, and filling our lives with time duties that we aren't enthusiastic about just to stay "occupied". 
     
    Minimalism is tied in with living a purposeful, essential, and satisfying life through settling on conscious decisions. It implies less mess; fewer time responsibilities; less pressure, nervousness, and belonging; additional time, space, and vitality for things that are important to you; and more satisfaction, peace, isolation, rest, and flexibility. 
     
    Minimalism backs off life and liberates us from this cutting edge agitation to live quicker. It discovers opportunity to separate. It tries to keep just the basics. It tries to evacuate the trivial and keep the noteworthy. Furthermore, in doing as such, it esteems the purposeful undertakings that enhance life. 
     
    Change your life today! 
     
    Here is a preview of what you'll learn.... 
     
     What is minimalism 
     Choosing a theme 
     Focusing on a specific area 
     Picking what stays and what goes 
     Purchasing better 
     Following up periodically 
     The benefits of minimalism 
     And basically everything you need to know to change your lifestyle

    “[Tramuta] draws back the curtain on the city’s hipper, more happening side—as obsessed with coffee, creativity, and brunch as Brooklyn or Berlin.” —My Little Paris 
     
    The city long-adored for its medieval beauty, old-timey brasseries, and corner cafés has even more to offer today. In the last few years, a flood of new ideas and creative locals has infused a once-static, traditional city with a new open-minded sensibility and energy. Journalist Lindsey Tramuta offers detailed insight into the rapidly evolving worlds of food, wine, pastry, coffee, beer, fashion, and design in the delightful city of Paris. Tramuta puts the spotlight on the new trends and people that are making France’s capital a more whimsical, creative, vibrant, and curious place to explore than its classical reputation might suggest. With hundreds of striking photographs that capture this fresh, animated spirit—and a curated directory of Tramuta’s favorite places to eat, drink, stay, and shop—The New Paris shows us the storied City of Light as never before. 
     
    “The author’s vibrant and precise command of English frames this lively collection of insights about cultural change and stories regarding multiple chefs and merchants.” —Forbes 
     
    “As the culinary scene in Paris evolves, a new palate of flavors and styles of eating have emerged, redefining what is ‘French cuisine.’ The New Paris documents these changes through the lens of bakers, coffee roasters, ice cream makers, chefs, and even food truck owners. A thoughtful, and delicious, look at how Paris continues to delight and excite the palates of visitors and locals.” —David Lebovitz, author of My Paris Kitchen
