    As someone who was born and raised in mtl. it was great to see a travel episode that showed a trip home that wasn't trumpeting the food and old Montreal, the mountain,and the plateau the whole time. Thank you for your take on it. I go back for a visit in September and will check out a couple places you suggested.

    Very wholesome. Long time native who lives regularly in all these parts, and this is a fun way to experience life as a local would. We'd nitpick a couple places based on our own preferences, but nothing here was something we'd sneer upon. Good to see someone appreciating a lot of things we take for granted.

      @@march.moments hehe no worries. I’m still planning on going there. I’m just brushing up on my French and trying to get in fitter shape (years of sitting at a desk have taken a toll) so I can enjoy it better. I’m still trying to decide when is the best time to go. Montreal seems like a summer city (with festivals and whatnot) but Quebec City looks so charming in winter or spring.

    hey! enjoyed your vlog! not sure if you will see this haha but i’m planning a solo trip and feeling kinda nervous about it. could i ask which part of montreal you stayed in and how did you get around? is it generally safe to stay out when it is dark? thanks in advance!

    • @march.moments
      @march.moments  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      heLLO IM SO SORRY THIS IS SO LATE. if you already went on your solo trip, i hope it went smoothly and you had an amazing time! if not, then i stayed in the "quartier des spectacles" and back when i went it was defs safe to stay out when it was dark. if i ever feel uncomfy being a solo female out on ze streets, i usually pull out my phone and act like im talking on the phone with someone else, but generally i felt safe! i absolutely love travelling solo for so many reasons, if not, just for being selfish and doing all the things /i/ want to do without having to compromise with my travelling buddy haha but i hope this eases a few of your nerves and hope u have/had a lovely time by yourself hehe

      that's super exciting, i hope you get a chance to go! honestly this was still in covid times so i was a little wary of public transit and ended up just walking everywhere! i can't say too much about public transit, but the city is super walkable :)

      Hey, don't know if I'm too late on this but if you come to Montreal and don't want to use transit too much, you can always get a bixi pass. Its 18$ for a month of unlimited rides on the bikes. Super convenient.

      ooh honestly i was just walking around and checked out any shops that interested me, rather than specifically looking for certain shops. But a lot of good shops are along st. laurent blvd from rue saint-antoine to like rue bernard (which would take you from chinatown to mile end). as for the art gallery it is the montreal museum of fine arts!
