Arriving in Montreal


Hello everyone, I just arrived in Montreal to do my internship for 3 months. The journey was long:

  • 3 hours for trains to go to Paris (fortunately in first class and with person next to me)
  • Carrying my 2 bags (20 and 13 kilos) and my backpack and more
  • Very little time to sleep, he had to leave very early in the morning to the airport to carry the baggage check
  • 9 hours of flight with a stopover half past one in Quebec (in an A310 which has almost no room to move a toe over the aircraft appeared to have at least 20 service)
  • For 30 minutes to finally find myself in this small (very small hotel room (which I share with my colleagues) to write this post

Here are some pictures, sorry for the quality my camera to big problems functioning.
I did a quick tour of the city center near the hotel where we stayed asleep.


The second day they took us around the city by bus with a tour guide who explained the history of the city. And that day it snowed one can still, this was an exceptionally abundant snow for Montrealers.

Unfortunately, I could not take more pictures because I did not think to recharge batteries for my camera ... and it was unfortunate because the guide took us to Mount Royal, a place where there is a a magnificent view of half of Montreal.

It snows in Annecy

In fact, this morning it was snowing in Annecy. While during the winter is not a single flake fell, it must be the second day of spring for that to happen. He must have waited all winter and when we least expect it, when the sunny days start to arrive, when the weather grew milder, one fine morning, leaving outside, we realize it's cold and everything is covered in white. Oh, the weather, the day we will understand, there will probably no longer there!
