The Summer I Moved to Montreal


Listen Later

The summer I moved to Montréal (late September 2022) turned quickly into the summer I moved back to Vancouver in 2023 after a year of experiencing a full life in the vibrant city of Quebec. In this episode, I share my living experience in Montréal and I get VERY personal about why I decided to move back home.

My sister and I had a wonderful experience in Montréal and we cannot wait for the day to visit again, but we agreed that moving back was the best decision for us both. I felt like a complete failure, but I learned that that was never the case. It's strength that allows us to move forward even if sometimes we have to give up on something we thought would be good.

I want to give three important shout-outs:

Lily, thank you for supporting us and helping us out with our move - we would have been fumbling without you. You helped make it seamless for us.

Lina, thank you for making Montréal a warm and fun city for us, you exposed us to different experiences and treated us like family as always.

Lastly, a shoutout to Cleopatra and Frankenstein by Coco Mellors: after being in denial with my state in Montréal, this book was what allowed me to feel confident in my decision to move back to Vancouver.
