Why I Love It: it's no surprise that I love Montreal,
considering I'm a self-declared francophone. I only wonder why it took
me so long to visit. My first trip took place in 2012 during the World
Film Festival, but it wasn't until I returned for the International Jazz
Festival (twice!) that I knew Montreal and I were going to get along
just fine. It's the perfect combination of North American and European
influences and there's always something fun to do, particularly in the
summertime.
Why It's Worth Visiting: It's like a
taste of Europe in North America, not to mention it's extremely
bike-friendly with gorgeous parks found throughout the city. My two
cents: go during the Jazz Festival and enjoy the music streaming out
onto the streets of downtown Montreal.
Favorite neighborhood: Le Plateau Mont-Royale: great food, great shopping and great scenery.
