I bought two "burritos" in Canada and spent 120 RMB! There are even people who say that prices are low
I still remember the day I traveled to Toronto, Canada with my friends. In the midst of our busy schedule, we decided to try the local food and found a burrito shop that was known as a "must-eat".
The décor is chic and the lighting is soft, making you feel like you're in a cosy cabin. The sign hanging at the door reads "Special burritos, delicious", which made our mouths water. So, we walked in without hesitation.
As soon as you enter, you will be attracted by the lively atmosphere of the store. People line up in front of a variety of burritos, some loudly discussing what flavors they want to choose, others waiting with great interest for the food to be baked. The staff at the store are busy, constantly bringing freshly baked burritos to customers, and smiling faces.
My friends and I also joined the queue and waited for our meal. Finally it was our turn to order, and I looked at the menu and my eyes lit up. There are a variety of wrap flavors, including strawberry chocolate, caramel banana, and classic plain wraps. I couldn't wait to order two wraps with different flavors and look forward to how delicious they are.
However, when I paid the bill, I was told that it would cost 120 RMB in total! I was stunned for a moment, and muttered to myself, are these two little burritos so expensive?
When I left the store, my friends also sighed: "The price of goods in Canada is so low, and some people actually say that their lives are stressful." "I secretly disagreed in my heart, I felt like I had been trapped.
However, as my travels deepened, I gradually discovered how different the country was from what I had imagined. In Ottawa, I visited the Houses of Parliament and the City of Richardson and was struck by its grandeur and grandeur of architecture and deep history; In Montreal, I walked through the old old town and felt the atmosphere of French romance; In Vancouver, I landed on Granville Island and looked out over the spectacular ocean view.
Every trip has made me feel the charm and diversity of Canada. The country is not only blessed with beautiful natural beauty, but also has a rich cultural heritage and a diverse social life. At the same time, I have come to understand why some people think that Canadian prices are cheap. Here, people enjoy excellent public services and good social benefits, a high quality of life, and relatively low stress, so it is normal for them to spend some money on food or travel.
In retrospect, those two "burritos" were expensive, but they gave me an unforgettable experience. Not only did they give me a taste of exotic food, but they also gave me a taste of the laid-back and cheerful lifestyle of Canadians. Perhaps, the level of prices is not the only criterion to measure the richness of a country, but more important is the quality of life and happiness of people.
In my opinion, travel is not only a process of exploring the world, but also a journey of self-awareness. By stepping out of our comfort zone and experiencing different lifestyles and cultures, we can better understand ourselves, expand our horizons, and enrich our lives. Therefore, I am willing to accept the challenges and surprises that every trip brings me, enjoy the fun, and realize the true meaning of life.
