Summer's in the Air

OH! It finally feels like summer!

The cold air has breathed its last breath... the sun is shining and it won't stop until October!

Montreal is one of the most amazing cities in the world, and I am not just saying that because I am a patriotic Montreal-loving city girl, I am saying this because it couldn't be more true. Montreal is home to some of the most entertaining festivals, internationally renowned restaurants, outdoor markets,
and world-famous nightlife. One of the best parts of all of this is that you can enjoy this city and all it has to offer for no cost at all! The festivals are held outdoors, streets are blocked off and the music blares down the downtown streets - anyone can enjoy the jazz festival, or grand prix street fairs simply by taking a stroll outside.

The museums have free days and restaurants hold outdoor tasting events - I mean, what other city has all of this!?

On top of all of these festivals and events, we also have amazing parks and cultural activities all day every day. The Tam Tams are a personal favourite, I have been going to the Tam Tams mountain every Sunday of my life since I was a teenager. You can bring a picnic and just relax on a blanket and listen to bongo drums, dance around, read, write, play backgammon, whatever it is that tickles your fancy, and the best part is that it is free and it is spectacular. Right across the street is the milton park, filled with soccer (football), volleyball, tennis and cultural activities (Peruvian festivals, Uruguay day, Indian feasts...).


Come see for yourself what Montreal has to offer - you won't ever want to go back home ;)
