Olympic Stadium Interior | Montreal, QC

November 26, 2018 by E. Casa de Calvo

In addition to sporting and cultural events, the stadium houses a world class fitness training facility and olympic swimming pools.

Modern Montréal | Montréal, Canada

May 1, 2017 by E. Casa de Calvo

Montréal is a vibrant city, mixed with historic and modern architecture. These photos were taken on a stroll around the city.
