Montreal, Quebec, Canada – October 2018

Even though Montréal is smaller than Toronto, it felt more far-flung, more congested with traffic and construction, harder to get my arms or head wrapped around. The core of Toronto is filled with historic and modern architecture everywhere, whereas Montréal has most historic architecture concentrated in the swoon-worthy Vieux-Montréal (Old Montreal), and merely sprinkled elsewhere among the modern buildings.

I am drawn to things that are beautiful, enlightening and humorous, so most of my posts show the shiny side of where I visit – but I feel like they are a reasonably honest depictions. These photos, however, are just straight-up cherrypicked!
