About me

About me
I'm an English teacher and freelance writer, passionate about travel, reading, photography and coffee! You'll often find me checking out new cafés in my city.

Why Montreal
What I love about Montreal is the diversity. There are people from all over the world who live here, allowing for the opportunity to learn from and about a variety of cultures. I also love all of the festivals here in the summer.

Abandoned Malting Factory

Beautiful urban decay
