“I was in Montréal for a few days at the beginning of August to attend a music festival, called Osheaga, and also to surprise a friend that moved over.
I loved my short time in Montréal. It is such a beautiful city and I really enjoyed visiting the historic precinct which was only a short 10 minute train ride from the CBD where I was staying.
I have been learning French with Devy at French Speak for around 8 months now and I was confident to speak French while ordering food, getting around the city on the Metro and general conversation in shops. It was nice to be over there and be able to speak a bit of the language.”
