Montreal is known as a city of festivals and we happen to come across a delicious one in the Old Port of Montreal. Join us on this new adventure as we explore our home country, Canada!

The time you've spent in Nepal has made me addicted to your videos😂❤. Have a bright future and so much love.
Thank you so much for continuing to follow our journey 😊
Let's all pray for the people of Canada who are affected by wildfire happening now. stay strong we are with you.

That's because "prayers", for most Canadians and especially Quebequers in general, are utterly useless. They appreciate the thought, but at the end of the day, there are a dozens other ways to better help with the situation. So, thank you for putting your hands together and saying words in thin air in your room wherever you live, but if you actually want to help, there are other... better... ways. So thumbs up for the thought, but yea, ultimately, it didn't help.
Thank you for showing Canada! There are not a lot of good quality vlogs on Canada and I can't wait to watch this Canadian series. I am also Canadian!
I'm a Canadian who spends half of my time in Thailand. I love both countries, and feel at home in both. Canada functions so much better and is so much safer and more pleasant than a few other countries that most expats in Thailand are escaping from. The only issues for me really are cost and winter. I could be happy in either place. Love your videos!!
Merci d’être passés nous voir à Montréal. ❤
Welcome to Montreal, Canada this weekend in great joy & peace 2023❤❤❤I wish you guys good LUCK & safe journey always in peace 2023❤❤❤
Hey, thanks for making this wonderful content about my city. I just love your energy and I'm so glad you guys had a good time here.
As you point out in the video, yes the cost of living has indeed exploded here with inflation, and even then it's not as bad as in Toronto or Vancouver. Hopefully the situation gets back to normal sooner rather than later. Btw that 30$ poutine is a total scam hopefully it was good at least.
Great start to the Canada series. Right now I am casting my vote for Note as Husbund of the Year for the "Home is where the heart is" comment. What a profound and true statement. It's not where you are as much as who you share your experiences with and we are lucky enough to go along with you two on your journey.
Thank you Rob and he gets my vote too (most days 😆)
Thanks for showing us Montreal. Cost of living has gone up all over the world post COVID plus the ongoing Ukraine invasion 😢
I kinda agree with Note that home is where the heart is.
What a start to your new series,already looking forward to your next one!
I love the ways you show Montreal around,its just something special.
Thank you for showcase our Canada and also 🙏 for our friends and support who are suffering from wildfires .
Welcome to my beautiful city of Montreal
If you go for bagels at 2am there's never a line! Great snack after a night out.
Bagels with cream cheese and smoked salmon - sooo good!!
Montreal is a fabulous. It's my favourite city in Canada 🎉🎉🎉
One of ours too 😊
the only real canadian city of 400 years , the other cities are a copy of any average USA city , same culture , same food, same language , same car culture .... is a walkable city with best public transport (metro, biking ) , architecture, food, we speak both official languages of Canada , UNESCO design city , fashion, safe, best night life and the city never sleep like NYC.
Yeah people don't realize that the cheese curds are only supposed to be like 5% melted in a poutine. The whole point of it is to have the squeaky bite and chewy texture. Definitely not fully melted. When I see a poutine and the cheese is all melted (even if it is made with cheese curds) I turn it away and say, I don't want these disco fries.
Now we are in Montreal (06.04.24) we fall in love this town, very clean and cosmopolitan also Japanese+French food is excellence, but we can't find a good Thai food jet, we hope soon we'll it.
I will say I have been following your videos for going on two years now. I have started going back to the very beginning but it's going to take me a little time to catch up but I thoroughly enjoy them. I love watching you both as husband and wife. You're absolutely wonderful together and you just make me feel like I'm right there with you all no matter where you are in the world. Thank you so much for sharing and the food. The places the people wonderful and my country we say. God bless you ❤️
The Canada series is really making me want to fly over there!
Hehehhe. Wait until you see next weeks video 🤭
Amazing to see you back in Canada - very exciting for both of you - 👌😃👋👍🙏
Nice to be back, especially to see friends and family 😊
Welcome home! Excited to see your upcoming videos. Montreal is beautiful.
Thank you so much! We’re also excited to explore parts of Canada we’ve never been to 😊
Nice video of my hometown. I lived 12 years in Asia so I agree, home is where your heart is 😅
Next to Kem Koba (great ice cream and great story behind that shop) was another classic… Wilensky.
Serving beef salami sandwiches since 1932… well, it started as a depanneur, then a hair salon in the corner, then a restaurant and serving the same sandwiches from the same grill for 70 years.
Anyhow… so many institutions here. Hope you enjoyed the many pedestrian streets and the Jean Talon market !
Happy travel !
Note, your mother sent me this link. I’m an old friend of her when she had Joys Elephant Camp back in 2003. So cool to see you and Flo. Need to go visit Pai again, it’s been a long time since we’ve been back. Pai was so cool back then. Now I see Mini Bus’s now going to Pai. 1st time in 2002 we took a Songtau. Loved the Hot Spring pool your mother had! Happy Trails, Gary
Thanks Gary! Yes, Pai has changed quite a bit. We’ll need to bring mom back to visit soon 😊
Wow. Montreal has changed so much. I enjoy your travel video. Both of you amazing couple. I m Lee from Malaysia.
Thank you so much 😍
Loved your talk on feeling at home. Annie and I have been many years teaching in S E Asia and still return every winter as we too feel at home in Thailand and Canada. Note is right , home is where the heart is especially if your sweetie is with you. ❤️
20:25 seriously so cute❣
As a native Montrealer who has lived in SE Asia, welcome, a nice basic introduction to Montreal.
If course you will overpay for a poutine if you buy it at the poutine fest in old Mtl. You should have been at the Greenspot in St-Henry.
Hey from France, this must be my first on your channel, being out of Canada since 1983. Thank you for the memories, of me living in Montreal from 1962 - 1969 and Vancouver 1969 - 1977 & 1982 - 1983.. I still feel like I'm Canadian.. I'll be checking your posts
We love Canada. Can't wait for the fall and winter EPs!
Bienvenue à Montréal! in french. The most taxed province of Canada in all of North America everything is expensive. I live in the northern suburbs of Montreal and I can tell you that me and my wife will live in Thailand for our retirement in a few years. Canada is beautiful!....but where the cost of living is very expensive compared to salaries!! Nice video thank you !!
I am envious of both of u being so lovey dovey, and to be able to enjoy travelling together at such a young age. God blessed both of u
I am from Vancouver BC! Found your channel from searching places in Japan, because I will be attending a semester of school in Osaka in the spring.
Glad you found us 😊
🇨🇦 Welcome home 😊 Great video to promote "La Belle Province"💖
Glad you liked it. Always nice to be back 😊
Ah such great memories of Montreal and yes the crunch & chewiness..omg of hand pulled bagels 🤤 viva Montreal 🇨🇦🍁🙏
Grrrr Taxes * takes another dollop of the sorbet 😋.. 🤯 taxes 🥺*🤦♂️
The best part of Canada
Funny the reverse $$$ culture shock! I’m looking forward to that part as I’m in BC and going to Thailand in December.
Welcome Back to Canada...Enjoy your stay..be safe...xo Excellent video...u do so well...Home is where the Heart is...
Those outside staircases scare the hell out of me. I even decided not to buy a particular apartment just because I would have had to walk up one of those staircases hahaha.
You’re great ambassadors for 🇨🇦
I cant wait to new season of canada, very interesting. Greetings from Indonesia 🇮🇩
We’re excited to show you more of Canada! We’re hoping to come to Indonesia next year 😊
🇨🇦 👍yeah Canada, Montreal is very beautiful, great video ❤
It’s so lively in Montreal. We love it 😊
Wonderful video again, Flora & Note. Thanks for showing Montreal. Haha...what a day of bagels 😊😅
Glad you enjoyed it! Montreal bagels are the best 🤤
I been to Montreal before, and it is a very beautiful city. Bagel area is nice and laid back. Flora and Note I hope you both do a Toronto tour as well. Maybe a Vancouver one in the future. Much love to the both of you my favorite UA-camrs. The Nepal series was classic from you both Flora and Note.
Thank you Dominic! Unfortunately we won’t be going to Toronto this time but Vancouver for sure as it’s Flora’s hometown ☺️💕
@@FloraandNote I will be excited to see that series
Never been to Canada so looking forward to this.
It’s a beautiful country! 😍
Welcome back home to Canada Flora and Note!!! I love Montreal and visit at least once a year. I hope you can make it to my city of Ottawa. I look forward to more of your Canada series. I agree with Note that Canada is beautiful in the summer, but this summer has been unusual with tornadoes, heavy rain and smoke from the wildfires!
Thank you for the warm welcome 😍😍😍
Canada is so pretty.. I have sister live in nova scotia and we went to visit her one time and was so many green trees.
Stay strong flore and note wherever you will go and live.
Welcome Flora And Note to your 1ST visit to Montreal. It has Ben on my bucket list for a long time, specially Chinatown. Absolutely love cheese bagels. I could tell after both of your 1ST bites YUM YUM. Outstanding $$. Super surprised 9 out of 10. Love seeing the older houses with the front staircases. Line wrapped around the corner for Fairmount that Note gives an 8.5, the lady seemed surprised in the white top. Note was saying run to catch the train. Poutinefest is a must for me, delicious. Duck was almost $$30US. Absolutely Loved Every Second.
It was a great day exploring Montreal! Glad you enjoyed watching it 😊
I enjoyed this and can't wait to see more of You both in Canada. The ending was the Best with your mom. Love You guys ❤❤❤
It’s so nice being back. Stay tuned for next week video. It’s a fun one 😊
@FloraandNote yes can't wait2 see You guys.
Whaaaaaaaaat the Nepal series is overrrrrr-- i want more!! hahahaha
Haha it was already a 10-video series! 😂
Such a nice video, very relaxing. I grew up on Fairmount bagels but have since leaned more towards St-Viateur bagels. Both are good but I agree with your ratings, your spot on.
Welcome Home ❤
Thank you 😊
WOW Canada looks AMAZING
It’s indeed a very beautiful country 💕🇨🇦
That's awesome! We started following you guys, researching SE Asia before coming here, as we were sitting at home, IN CALGARY! Too cool you guys are from the same place, doing the same adventures! Love the content, and cool to see you guys back in CA! 🙌🙂
Yep I agree I actually going to Canada to visit my cousins in Vancouver
Bienvenue chez vous.
Welcome back home glad to see you back with us enjoyed it!!
Amazing journey, can't wait to visit this beautiful country. Hope i can relax there.
It’s so beautiful! Can’t wait to show you more in the videos to come 😉
Nice vidéo. I like waching you guys. A+
Hello from a fellow Canuck! Awesome spotlight on Montreal which is my birth city!
Prices now in Québec are just insane. Crazy rent (1,400$ for a 1 bedroom) food inflation 40% in the last 3 years, and now workers are crazy about tips, suggesting often up to 28%. I do my mandatory 6 months here but I am more than happy to spend winters away.
What has changed the most is the cost! I went home for the first time in almost 7 years, and was shocked how expensive everything was.
I left for the adventure, living and traveling the world with my girlfriend. Now, I legitimately would not be able to afford daily life back home in Halifax, and ESPECIALLY not in Toronto where we used to live. 😰
We REALLY want to go back and explore Canada a bit more though. And you guys make us want to re-visit Montreal even more. Best bagels ever. 🤤
Our money goes a long way in Thailand, not so much in Canada 😅 But we’re excited to do some exploring this summer! Canada is so beautiful 😍
@@FloraandNote We live in Budapest, but will be going back to SE Asia soon. We're going to have the opposite effect! Can't wait for $2 meals. 😃
Looking forward to seeing what you guys get up to in Canada! 🇨🇦
Hi guys happy enjoying
Thank you 😊
Welcome home guys. Enjoy family time and “mom & dad’s” cooking ;) Best wishes to your friends upcoming marriage too!
Thank you so much! ☺️
Welcome back. Your series on Nepal was fabulous. I’m so looking forward to your Canada ones. Would love to bump into you when you’re in Vancouver
Thank you so much! Hope we’ll be able to show you parts of Canada you’ve never been to too 🙂
Enjoyable commentary
I like the ones from Fairmount too. I used to pick up a few of them after night club when I was studying at McGill University in Montreal. Oh, try the Pina Colada flavor one.
Canada did change in the past 5 years but I think most places did. Covid caused a big shake up related to social structures like work where a lot of people are disengaging from the work drone culture. At the same time we have some more active extremists on the far right than we used to. Add to that economic instability causing a flaring inflation and most people feel the pinch. At the same time I get the feeling that most people are more understanding of other people's difficulties and plights, more empathic maybe? Though people are more tired and more anxious making them more unstable emotionally and more isolated. Weirdly I think despite an exacerbated introvert wave, people are more oppen to be approched maybe less forward but more craving for human contacts at the same time? I'm not sure how to say all of this. I think it is reflected in politic at least in Quebec, political parties that used to be more pro corporations are adopting a discourse at least on the surface about helping the poors get through the hard time, but at the same time we hear more far right extremists clamouring for insanities more openly and without shame, emboldened by the USA far right parties going mainstream in the past 10 years. Sociopolitical instability generate extremes, extreme kindness and extreme hate.
Definitively the food costs was raised by 25% and more in the last 4 years
Greetings from YYC. Welcome home, so enjoyed your visit to Montreal, absoutely love that city, been there many times on my way to the Martimes. Enjoy your travels...
We also plan to travel to the Maritimes this trip 😉 we’ve never been and it looks beautiful!
Curious to see the cost of your Canadian summer. Maybe like 1 year in Thailand ?
Haha quite possibly...but we're saving a lot of money by staying with friends and family instead of hotels 😂
Looks like you guys are catching some great weather. We were in Vancouver two weeks ago it was lovely. I noticed Note's sesame seed bagel quickly become Flora's after one bite. Lol. Happy wife, happy life!
Hahaha the sesame bagel was still warm, I couldn’t resist 😛
My wife just called me with excitement. She ran into you guys at A-Mart ! Welcome back to Calgary. 😊
Haha she’s so sweet! She even brought us Korean snacks, which we’re enjoying right now 🥰🙏🏻
@@FloraandNote Enjoy your stay. We will be following your vlogs. Note is my bro.
@@FloraandNote Almost cut in line cause we wanted to give you those snacks before you leave. 😅 Thank you so much for treating us like you knew us before. You just made our day!
P.S; Hopefully we get to see you somewhere in Thailand as well! Enjoy your time in YYC ❤
your tour of Montreal brought back my memories of the city...fairmount bagel was much better tasting to me too...also the crew collective cafe is such a cool place to have a coffee...the chinatown in montreal while small is quite nice to walk around on the way to Old Montreal.
There’s so much happening in Montreal that one video doesn’t do it justice but we have to move on 😅 This week, we’ll take you to meet Note’s family ☺️
Welcome home, guys!! Was wondering what would you find interesting and beautiful in Montreal. Because when you live in a city, you get used to it and don't find anything special of it.
My dream is to visit Koh Samui one day!
Very much enjoy all your videos.
We live in Koh Samui for most of the year so coming to a big city like Montreal is quite fun for us!
Welcome to Montreal! Try Smoke Meat Schwartz, and then visit Mont Royal near by. You can basically buy the smoke meat sandwiches and bring them to eat on top of Mont-Royal. Don’t forget those Sandwiches need to have a cold slaw and a cherry coke. Don’t mess around with Coke or Pepsi, it’s not a real experience. Trust me, I’d try! Enjoy your stay!
and then get a Lafleurs steamy all dressed hot dog followed by a michigan chili cheese dog. Be sure to place your order as Un All dressed, Un Michigan, Un patate, Un Pepsi (in a french accent of course).
Hello, two pure souls,i am new subscribers of your, you both are so much innocent person in this world,both are so cute behavior and both are always creating smile 😊😁
So,i hope never come pain on your life,you always shine i pray to god 🙏🙏🕉️🛕
From Nepal ❤❤
Montréal mes amours! ❤
Poutine seemed a must-taste! Thanks. And... haha, you guys are sweet :P
There are much yummier ones for cheaper 🤣
Hey Flora, what's your skin care routine? You're always glowing!
Haha you’re too sweet 😍 must be the sunshine giving me that glow ☀️
You shouldn't justify high taxes! Most of the money goes into the pockets of the elite! Also the French they speak in Quebec is an old version that was brought over when the French first arrived. Some of them later went down to New Orleans to live. (The French Quarter) I think the language in France is a more modern version now.
I followed Flora to learn English, thank you very much.
Glad to hear that!
Showing all my support no matter where you two go and film. Love, ❤, 💗
Lots of love from 🇳🇵❤
Thank you so much 😊
Canada is a clean country
Welcome home!!! Even though I've been to Montreal, you guys are always teaching new things. Love your videos, I hope your world viewers can enjoy Canada like we do.
Sadly, Canada is pricy (like US, definitely not asia). But you guys will make it work to find deals.
Can't wait to see the east coast and find your way back west to Calgary (home town) and Vancouver.
Well parts of Asia like Hong Kong, Singapore, Tokyo, Osaka, Seoul, Shanghai, Taipei are WAY, WAY, WAY more expensive than Canada and the US. Calgary is super inexpensive compared to large Asian cities where the demand far outweighs the supply of housing. Singapore is literally the most expensive city on earth.
@@kayflip2233 Yes, I'm well aware, but thanks. I was speaking to the countries they've visited on their VLOGs and how they like to highlight inexpensive deals. Normally things convert to super cheap like
Thanks Ian! We’re excited to show you places we know really well and places we’ve never been to before in Canada 😄 it’ll be a mix of adventures!
I live in Montreal and I just came back from a small trip to New York City and wow, things have gotten very expensive there. Not too long ago, the US seemed to be cheaper but now everything is more expensive, especially if you consider the exchange rate. NYC has also gotten dirtier and there's urine smell almost everywhere.
I was so looking forward for nepal vlog, but anyway wish you luck guys, i enjoyed watching your videos
watching from Nepal 🇳🇵 ❤ ..
its expensive here in the west . i would love to move to asia if i get a chance hehe
Enjoy your stay in Canada ❤
Thank you :)
Hope you guys would make a journey toward Bhutan 🇧🇹 too !!
Missing from Nepal 🎉 Good luck and have a wonderful time together 😊 Much love ❤
Thank you so much 😀
Thanks!
Thanks Gary for your support 🥰
So nice video 🎉
My hometown ❤️
I'll be in Montreal in a couple of weeks. Where else in Canada are you headed? I can give you some great ideas of places to check out
Oh I didn't know you were Canadians!!
Haha yes we are 🇨🇦 We’ll visit the Maritimes before we head west to Calgary and Vancouver ☺️
It might be nice to be back to the Beautiful Canadian cities but the amount of inflation really runs aground my resources.... still more pleasurable to spend USD in the cheaper Asia countries.....
Square Victoria - OACI (station in french and station in english, see french is easy )is the world trade center ... you have a Paris subway sign , offered by Paris to Montreal (the only one outside Paris) , you have a piece of the Berlin wall offered by Germany to Montreal inside the World trade building ... OACI ( ICAO -internation civil aviation organazation )is the head office of the world International Aviation organization ... the amazing park in the square offers beauty , flowers , fountain , the Queen Victoria Statue and surrounded by amazing architecture and skyscrapers . Why did you not show square Victoria park ? Montreal is the greenest city of Canada with more than 2 million tress in the city and the largest urban park (Mount Royal). Unfortunately you did nor show the city but more basic food (bagels and poutine ) ..Montreal has better food and world wide renown creative chefs ... Montreal is unique and world class city ... no comparison to any other canadian city ... Montreal is the historical and canadian capital of culture of 400 years , design , food, fashion , public transport and night ... Museums are the largest in Canada and the only city with 7 universities with the top ones in both official languages of Canada ,english and french
Lots of love from NEPAL 🇳🇵 ❤️
