Ok. I admit it. I loved Montreal.

Montrealers are known for their pride of their hometown. I think they deserve to be. Montreal is a great city and their ability to hold on to two cultures and languages for generations is something I greatly admire and even envy. Coming from NYC, I respect and understand cultural, hometown pride and Montrealers have much to be proud about, including all the awesome they have to offer those who visit. They are friendly and happy to share their city with you – to show it off, if you will – and I was more than happy to take it all in.

Montreal rocks and I can’t wait to go back and think you should visit as well.

In the meantime, here are some photos from my trip.

    LOVE Montreal. It is a place our family vacations at least once per year. I was there in November and every time I go, I love the city more. It is such a diverse and exciting city, one that anyone and any family can really enjoy. I really liked your photos they portrayed the beauty of the city. familyfoodtravel.blogspot.ca

    I'm so glad you went to Palais de Congres, one of my favourite places to shoot in Montreal.

A necessary couple of days to reset and just breat A necessary couple of days to reset and just breathe. It’s wild that we are already on the final months of 2026. 

The world feels like it’s on fire and humanity is being tested in greater ways than so many of us can even begin to process. Society and our communities demand more from us than a lot of us have ever been called to give. But we must. And it can be exhausting and scary. But we must. 

I hope everyone goes out and votes. Protesting by NOT voting really helped to get us here. Tried and tested. So, no thanks. That was a shit plan. Now we must do more. Voting is not the overall solution. Those of us who continuously experience discrimination, misogyny, and violence towards our people know this. But it gives us a better footing to continue the fight ahead. 

There’s never “nothing” you can do, but doing nothing is never the answer. 

See you out there.
29 years ago my first boy was born. He changed my 29 years ago my first boy was born. He changed my life completely and inspired me to work hard everyday to be the best version of myself. Today, on his birthday, I invite you to go down memory lane with me. From birth to his first birthday. 

I love being your mother, @davidcaiinn. You make us  proud and your dad and I love witnessing your journey. 

You are loved more than we could ever express in our lifetimes. Happy birthday. 🎂
Started the day with a little roadtrip with Josie Started the day with a little roadtrip with Josie where she got the very rare pleasure to sit upfront (yes, she was harnessed to seatbelt) on her way to her very first doggie day care visit where she quickly made friends and happily played her heart out. But of course, it’s never enough so we got to play a bit more while the sun set. 

She is the sheddiest, most cuddly, sweetest doggie, and we love her so much. It’s only been 21/2 months, but it feels like she’s been here, with us, forever. 💕
Love is…a comfy fall cozy with Josie. 🐾💕 Love is…a comfy fall cozy with Josie. 🐾💕

Spending the next couple of days on assignment in Spending the next couple of days on assignment in Rochester, which always feels like such a special treat - to be able to work in a city I love being in so much. Excited for all the good coffee and favorite eateries I will try to fit in as much as possible while here. Such a great city.
