Summer in Montreal: Acting like a tourist in my own city

When I lived abroad, I always kept a list of things I wanted to see and do in the city on my free time. Even in times of intense work with little or no flexibility in my schedule, I would try to sneak in some exploring and unwinding time to roam unknown streets, find new cafés, visit museums, fill a notebook, climb a tower for views, take a day trip.

That habit totally stuck with me when I returned to Montreal and moved from the suburbs into the city. Sometimes, it’s easier to get to know a foreign place better than our own backyard, because of that sense that time is limited. But I try to be a tourist in my own city, to look for experiences and perspectives that keep me from taking it for granted. It also allows me to keep adding new photographs to the Montreal collection, currently sold in various shops around the city.

I love to take long walks, tackling one neighborhood at a time, honing in on details that both you and I could easily miss! I love celebrating those details through my photography. Looking at some photos, you may not immediately guess that they are taken in Montreal, because the details could exist anywhere. But, there's something special about looking at your own city with a detail-oriented eye. Sometimes, it makes a more subtle souvenir, not only of the place, but of a mood or moment.

Do you like to take walks in your own hometown? Do you ever take pictures of what you see? Share them with me on Instagram - I would love to see a little piece of the world through your eyes!
From my heart to yours.
