Québec under the snow

Frontenac’s castle

There am I in Québec. This city has a real spirit, an atmosphere that you feel very comfortable with. As usual, I spent these two days walking in these very quiet and charmful streets. I took some pictures in front of the Chateau de Frontenac, I’ve walked along the “promenade des Gouverneurs”, and I’ve also enjoy a lot the famous rue Saint-Jean which is part of the Old Québec. I’ve tried to eat some maple on the snow (you’ll see it soon in video), met a lot of very cool people (Denis, Stéphane, Marie, Joëlle, Noémie, Valérie, Mathieu, Caroline and also Léa, i’m sure you’ll enjoy the music !). If you’re in Québec, I’m really recommanding the Youth Hostel “Auberge de la paix“, located Rue des Couillards, in the Old area of Québec. For 20 canadian $ a night, you get a warm welcome, breakfast, Wireless  internet access, a shared kitchen (and they even play nice reggae music inside). I was lucky to get some snow and I really appreciated it. A new video is coming soon (with some guest inside such as Santa Claus !). Tomorrow morning, I’m leaving Québec to the Montmorency waterfalls, which are higher than the Niagara ones, and that are located at 45 minutes from Québec by bus. Then, I’ll go to Tadoussac, a few hours in the north from Québec, hopefully to see some whales (they’re normally gone) and to discover national protected areas.

About me

I'm a 26 years old young graduate, living in Lyon, France and who traveled 12 months around the world. The purpose of this travel was to fully comprehend the international environment by looking through different people’s eyes. Together we will be learning about each countries values and beliefs, fears and dreams, worries and concerns through pictures, people’s stories and my experiences. Hopefully, this will bring a new point of view, a new perspective over the world’s view. About me
