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.
"Pain Azer" is an Iranian bakery in Montreal that's bringing life back to Notre-Dame! It's the only place in the area that serves fresh Turkish coffee...

"The Tree of Life" is a sculpture made out of a 150-year-old walnut tree for the 1967 Expo. Now it's inside metro station Lionel Groulx. I love it...

"St-Ambroise" is a micro-brewery in Montreal with unusual flavors like oatmeal stout, pumpkin ale, and apricot wheat ale! I like the size of the terasse...

"Rockaberry" in Montreal is a local pie place I always take my friends who're visiting. It's known for cutting huge slabs, too much for only one person!

"Les Affamés" Montreal is a bistro that's not often found in guidebooks but is popular with locals for weekend brunch. Perfectly French/Belgian-inspired!

The "Abandoned Malting Factory" in St-Henri, Montreal, is a prime example of how urban decay can prove interesting... I like to wonder at its former glory.
