Winter is coming ⛄

  First Winter We are very afraid of winter, we have heard a lot of things, some good and some not so good. We think we are not prepared for -20C temperatures (just kidding, we should be). We already bought our jackets, boots, gloves, and hats, but nothing prepares you for those temperatures. At the beginning of winter everything is going to be very nice, the first snowfalls, new experiences, Christmas, and New Year (we hope all winter will be like that 🤞, being very positive).  Just to tell you that at work we have made a bet on what day we think is going to be the first snow day (Paula said November 15 and Laura said November 19, Juanita didn't want to participate) we are looking forward that one of us will win this bet 🤑.  We are still waiting for the temperatures to drop, and start this Winter season. We will keep you informed.

Failed furniture attempt 👎

 

Not everything is true 😓

We always hear that in Canada, many people take out their furniture and give it away for free. Sometimes the things they offer are in good condition, but let's be honest, most people don't take care of their things, at least here in Canada. For example, in Latin America, we are very careful with the things we have, but here, people don't care so much.

We saw in a group that a guy was giving away his couch for free; in the pictures, it looked great, but when we got to his house, everything smelled really bad (cat pee), and the couch was totally different from the picture. We paid a man to transport the sofa to our house, but in the end we decided to leave the sofa outside and lost the money for the transport.

In the end, we learned that you have to go see things first, and then if you like them, you organize yourself and pay for the transportation. Every day, we learn something new.

Juanita, Paula, and Laura 💛💙🧡

We want to show the reality of living as immigrants in Montreal. The beautiful and the not-so-beautiful of a new country and the new experiences that are lived with all the new cultures and customs. We want to show you the reality of Canada!  🌟

Party and good friends 😎

    Summer The weather in Montreal in summer allows you to do everything. It is the best time to share with friends, do outdoor activities like picnics, music festivals, "tanning", and also go out to dance💃.  If you ask us, the best time to arrive in Canada is summer, you meet new people (everyone is outside enjoying), and get to know Montreal because you can walk for hours without worrying about freezing 🥶 .
