My city...Montreal

Anyone born here will tell you the same thing. Everything in Montreal is boring. After you've been around the club circuit, the Haitian parties and crowds, you can't help but have a bitter taste in your mouth about the nightlife.

I have always been an adventurer, willing to explore and try different things. That's why I have taken the plunge and travelled alone. It takes courage and it takes a good dose of impulsiveness to strike out on your own or to try something new. Once you do, there is nothing to stop you!

For my "aww...I don't know what to do today" types, please know that there is a life out there after you've gone through your 4th season of Criminal Minds (I am currently watching that one...loll!). You don't have to restrict yourself in to going back to the same things you know and begrudgingly don't want to do but still do for lack of imagination and guts.

For the sport fans: the NBA finals are starting, go grab a drink & wings at a local bar. Bring a friend or two to change your atmosphere. The women's FIFA finals is stopping in Montreal. Fans of soccer, the tickets are not the pricey and I guarantee that you'll watch a good game.

Foodies, this is specially for you! Places to eat are a dime a dozen in this city. depending on what you are looking for. Trust that there is something to taste!

Food trucks are the newest attraction in Montreal. Back for a 2nd season, you can grab a bite on the go if you happen to spot a truck. Wanna know which is in your area? Check out this site (updated daily): f00d.ca/montreal.

My tastebuds have been craving some Jerk Chicken and I have been served. Chef Jae-Anthony has been incredibly generous to my stomach takes to his talent and food. Wanna check him out? Easy, his place delivers!!!! Go peek at his facebook or IG by searching Seasoned Dreams. Or you can also happen to go to bar En Cachette (St-Denis & Ontario) on a Tuesday evening, say 7pm to get a taste.

Another place to try is La barake (labarake.com). Althought I haven't had the opportunity to taste their food, a very cute bartender made me a specialty cocktail that I could not refuse. If the amount of people present during the celebration of their 1st anniversary is any indicator of their success. This girl (me) is about to move her birthday to August, just so that I can celebrate on their amazing terrasse. Trust me, its fab!!

Art buffs: Although the free Museum day has gone by, there is definitely stuff to see. Go check out the Musée des beaux arts (www.mbam.qc.ca), Musée McCord (www.musee-mccord.qc.ca) or the Société des arts technologies (sat.qc.ca).

Let's not forget our music addicts: There are so many shows and concerts lined up for this summer that you are bound to find something to suit your fancy. Big names such as Erika Badu, Joss Stone, Boukman Expérience, Drake, Nicki Minaj and more are only a few that are coming through this year.

That's all I had to say, peeps. You ain't go no excuse to complain, if you can't travel (I know how expensive it can be), you can make alternate plans. There is something for everyone, you just gotta get off the coach and look for it!!
