Montreal trip
0kommentarer
Hi
How's everyone?
The days pass so fast. Frida and I went to Montreal a week ago and now she's in Halifax (the east coast) travelling around for another week with our friend Annaliis. Then she flies back to Sweden for a while. I came back to Toronto two days ago. Feels good to be back and get into the daily routines again, but very sad to leave Frida. We have done almost everything together for about a year, so no wonder it feels strange to be apart.
The Montreal trip was great. We stayed at a lovely Bed & Breakfast the first 3 nights and explored the area during the days. Montreal has a lot more history than Toronto, which we could tell by the old buldings. It felt almost like being in an European country and it was great to hear people speak French. After the first 3 nights we had to change to another hostel. IT WAS AWFUL. Super dirty, the air was really bad, the toilets were disgusting.....it felt like the place was about to fall apart any second. We didn't wanna spend any time in the hostel more than sleeping so we packed our backpacks with our toothbrushes, clothes, water, food - everything we needed for the days and then we just came back late in the evenings - slept a few hours and went out in the morning.
Oh, forgot one thing. Before we went to Montreal we stopped by Stirling (which is a small town on the way to Montreal) to visit Robert and his wife Virginia - our first contacts in Canada. Frida's father knew Robert before we came to Canada from some Wordloppet ski races in Europe and that is how we came in contact with him. He was the one who made us come in contact with Bev & Saul in the store that I work at, which we're so thankful for. So we went by them before Montreal and stayed over one night in their beautiful and historical house (they are very much into antiques).
Next post I do will be full of pictures from the last week :)
