Historic Montréal | Montréal, Canada
The first photo in this series is of my hotel room at Parc Suites Hotel, 3463 Park Ave, Montreal, QC H2X 2H6, Canada (parcsuites.com). I’m sure there are fancier, newer places to stay nearby, but I greatly enjoyed this particular hotel because of the cozy feel of the rooms and friendliness of the staff. You feel like you are staying in your own downtown apartment. From this location you are able to walk in all directions, exploring each corner of […]

Modern Montréal | Montréal, Canada
Montréal is a vibrant city, mixed with historic and modern architecture. These photos were taken on a stroll around the city. I usually jot down the names of the streets and major locations, but I was having too much fun sightseeing, and completely forgot to take notes. Anyhow, you’ll just have to visit to see these places for yourself!

Baie Saint Paul | Québec, Canada
These photos were taken while visiting Parc Boisé du Quai, at the end of Rue-Sainte Anne in the city of Baie-Saint-Paul. Discovering the park and walking trails was a pleasant surprise. Baie-Saint-Paul has many wonderful restaurants and historic attractions. I just need to brush up on my French, because this is an exclusively French speaking area. C’est la vie.

Rue Saint-Jean | Québec, QC Canada
Rue Saint-Jean was the street that I’d use to walk to and from Old Québec. This street has a beautiful mix of modern and historic architecture. I had a wonderful breakfast at Au Bonnet D’Âne (rough translation: The Donkey Bonnet), the best pesto pizza I’ve ever had in my life at Pizzeria D’Youville, and mouthwatering onion soup and banana and chocolate crepes at Au Petit Coin Breton. There is a fantastic park, Rink Place D’Youville, that is turned into an […]
