Hello from an English girl in Québec....I thought I would say hi to a fellow studying here after seeing your comments on 'where have the lemons gone'...how do you like Hamilton? (I am supposing that is where u r studying from the map..)
You are quite right about grape flavour (or should I write 'flavor'?). Every sweet/drink that is purple here seems to have what I find a rather vile synthetic raisin taste...shame really.
Anyhow, good luck with the studies smiley - smiley

Ah, bonjour madamoiselle.

Sorry it took me a while to reply, the uni insists on giving me work. Anyway, I quite like Hamilton, though the bus service isn't as good as Leeds.

How's Quebec?


Âllo!

Quite cold...but not as cold as usual apparently, thank God. I had a strange experience last weekend ice-fishing, it was quite a nightmare, very surreal and I was very pleased to get home smiley - smiley
How do you find the uni there compares to in the UK? I agree about the buses...but in Montréal we have a cool metro where the tickets are REALLY cheap.
Why did you decide to study in Canada anyhow?

Good luck with the study!


Âllo!

Compared to Leeds uni, it's very flat. The regime also seems more informal, though I think that's partly the difference between being and undergrad and a postgrad.

What are you up to in Montréal?
