Travel Instas - Quebec!

I'm back! And I'm surprisingly happier about that than I thought I would be. But I'm very relieved to be back in my own province where I know the language and the street signs. Montreal was beautiful, decent weather, and amazing food (as you can see below). The one thing we didn't anticipate, however, was clouds of students rioting for their tuition fees on every corner. That isn't so bad, but when coupled with riot police, buses upon buses of security, and even a few RCMP, it's not the most "relaxing" atmosphere for a vacation. But we made it out alive, and all I can say is - an experience is an experience, you learn something from every one! We learned you can't predict what will happen no matter how hard you try to control the details. I think we'll wait a little bit before going back ;)
In the meantime, enjoy these cool instagram photos from the trip! :)

La belle ville!

Bonjour mes amies. Je suis tres excite pour travaille au Montreal ce moi-ci! I'm starting to get excited travel jitters for my and Justin's trip to Quebec at the end of the month. I have not been brushing up on my french like I should be. In fact, I'm sure there's about 10 things wrong with the sentence above. Sadly, I've taken french for about 7 or 8 years... Needless to stay, I still love the culture. I'm a big fan of the architecture of a city, that's what makes it unique before you meet the inhabitants. Old Montreal has some of the greatest and prettiest views in the world, according to myself. Justin is bummed that he can't bring his bike with him, since that's his way of sight-seeing. But we'll get lots of walking in instead and that alone will probably make me lose 50 pounds! Sself-proclaimed couch potato doesn't benefit here. And lastly, I don't care if we sleep in everyday, I will not be deprived of delicious lattes that are true to their french name. 

Ps. I didn't take any of these photos...just some light day-dreaming <3
