Hi Zhu,
Wait a minute… seeing snow for the first time? I’m guessing there isn’t much snowfall in France then (I didn’t know that!). And why from Brazil, why not from the home country directly like ‘normal’ people… LOL

Oh I haven’t been to Montreal or Quebec or Ottawa yet, and I guess only next summer is going to be the time…! Loved the pictures, and I am keen to try the Montreal city bikes.

Thanks for this. I've always been curious about Montreal so it's interesting to read your impressions. And of course the photos are great as always! .-= Liz´s last blog ..Deshebrada en chile guajillo =-.

Hey again,

I love the three women statue: beautiful!

Now, your photos sell Montreal just fine! Girl, they make us want to go there.

I wonder what made you change your view about this city (have you analysed it yet?)…

Thanks for these pics…loved them!

Cheers

Ha come on, Montreal is the best city in North America, and you all know it;) More seriously, I don't think Montreal is a very good city to visit, I would not really recommend anyone to go on a trip to Montreal exclusively. But living there is amazing, there are just so many people from so many different cultures and with four universities the city is always moving physically and mentally. I guess the same can be said from the T-Dot now that the city has moved forward and that Montreal is falling behind but Montreal will always stay dear to my heart. .-= Cynthia´s last blog ..Bonus =-.

We have been planning to go to Montreal and Quebec City. I think I am more for seeing Quebec city since I think it too has more character.. We planned on this September but will have to wait and see where life takes us to travel next... Great pics! .-= expatraveler´s last blog ..Electric =-.

Zhu… Thany you Thank you Thank you for the pictures of Montreal. My favorite city in Canada.… This post made me nostalgic and ah I had a great time.

For someone like me who hasnt visited Europe (apart frm flight transits) Montreal and Quebec comes as a european face in the midst of American sky scrappers. I love sainth catherine st and the river side. Awesome.

Since your words and pics are my only exposition to this city (why google it up, when the Zhu portal to the world is much more fun eh?), I solely trust your judgement in this. Let the Zhu verdict fall mightily onto the heads of the unbelievers I say!!! Succumb to the avid world travellerer's superior surveying skills or meet a doom worst than reading my blog, visit Montreal (no, no, I will be a sane little Merc mommy don't send me there....nooooo...lol)! Let's face it girl, when you start taking pics (even beautiful pics) of bicycles there is something seriously devilishly boring with the place:). Take care gal! .-= Deadpoolite´s last blog .."Gamer" : A movie worthy of the GAME OVER screen... =-.

Interesting. I've always heard good things about Montreal, but mostly about it having a fun night life. The pictures look cool, it is a city I would love to visit and see for myself. .-= Seb´s last blog ..More Alphabetic Misadventures: R is for Radiation =-.
