Although my mini-adventure to Northern Ontario went completely off the rails, from the moment I arrived at the wrong airport in Toronto to the message I received from Via Rail informing me that my train from White River to Sudbury, the main reason I went there in the first place, was cancelled for reasons they didn’t explain, I discovered something greater - the genuine northern kindness and hospitality from the many people I met on the trip. And then there was the landscape: raw, untouched, and breathtakingly beautiful. For anyone feeling overwhelmed by the heaviness of daily life or simply those who have lost faith in humanity, I recommend going far away from the big cities to explore the true north.
