A beginner mistake I am weirdly glad I made on a budget
Part of me wanted the fancy version with all the tools. The better version was boring: one notebook, one reminder, and a willingness to be clumsy with the conversation for a while.
I tried this in Toronto with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.
This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. food got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.
