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.

Sometimes I find country living too different and Sometimes I find country living too different and unsuitable. But then I have days that exhaust me. Or I am riddled with anxiety and uncertainty - a common theme for me as of late. Or just need to clear my head. Then I find the country to be the best medicine. Maybe it’s the crisp cold air. Or the soothing of the rushing glen. Or the sound of the ravens nesting nearby. Or the soft, cushy moss under my feet. Whatever it is, I am so grateful even when it all feels so unsure. I know this is pretty lucky.

After the rain, this is the sound as the sun sets: After the rain, this is the sound as the sun sets: the song of what seems to be a thousand peepers and the water rushing from the glen down the 100 foot waterfall right in front of our little country cottage. 

As much as I still love the noise of my NYC, this wasn’t a bad trade off. ❤️

Now is the perfect time to visit the Finger Lakes if you enjoy waterfalls. Through mud season and again during the rainy days of fall these waterways are the most active and beautiful. 

One of the many reasons we love our home in this stunning region.
