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.
