While out walking...

I realise now how exhausted the last month has left me with our move over here. I struggle to wake up each morning and find I'm drinking one too many cups of coffee each day to stay awake. I'm sure others who have made a similar move can relate. I think trying to get into a routine is important and hopefully the key to feeling normal again(?).

It looks as though we have found a home in Old Montreal which I'm very excited about. The apartment is furnished and very stylish, warm and in a great location. I also couldn't help but notice some nice cooking utensils in the kitchen so I'm eager to explore behind those cupboard doors. This afternoon I went for a walk through what will be our new neighbourhood and took some pictures. It's a pretty part of town with lots of character and the restaurants dined in so far have been very good. I also hear there is a nice yoga studio with large windows overlooking Saint-Paul Ouest. Could be a good way to kickstart a routine.

I hope everybody is having a nice day.

  1. Unbelievably beautiful. It looks like it will be such an inspiring place to live. The old buildings are definitely what we are missing back here in Australia, isn't it? But spring is coming and it's beautiful! I hope the yoga studio is right for you, that would be great to start establishing those things locally quickly.

  3. Cute collage! You gotta let us know if that Piano Bar is any good :)
    Have you found a running route yet? Or is Montreal-Chantelle going be a yogi instead of a runner? ;)

  4. Thank you. Agree, Brisbane doesn't have a whole lot of old buildings but the weather is nice in Spring.

    No running routine yet Kat. I think in winter time that may be a bit difficult unless in a gym. I thought I'd give yoga a go for a while. I have to change my routine though as it doesn't look like places are open early in the morning. Might have to become a night person like you :)

  6. Don't do it, I went to bed at 1am last night and my alarm went off at 6.30. I feel like a zombie..

  7. Looks like an interesting area! Fingers are crossed that you guys get that apartment. I'm surprised that the yoga studio doesn't open in the am. The one's here in Toronto are often open by 6:30/7am.
