I am out of Ottawa now, onto the Montreal part of things. I wish I could say more about this, but that's about it. I'm in Montreal. Go team.
Montreal is one of those places I always thought I'd end up in. It's the closest to a major and thriving cultural centre as Canada gets, and I dig this. I haven't soaked up the culture yet (I was going to go to a gallery today, but it was closed), but I am determined to do so, I dig culture, it's a great thing.
It's strange, but Montreal is the first city I really considered to be a city. Ottawa was always home first and foremost, I didn't even realize the downtown was a thing until a few years ago. I never saw the city part of Toronto when I was young, I just went out to the suburbs where my Grandma lived. But when I was 7 or 8, I visited Montreal for a weekend, and I was overwhelmed by it, it was full of stuff and people and places to go, and it amazed me, I loved it.
Montreal has always been the first city for me.
