LGBTQ Friendly Canada
I still remember my first trip to Canada, for a Model U.N. Conference at the University of Toronto.
Walking around the college campus and downtown area I couldnt accept how diverse the city was.
Boston, where I grew up, was predominantly white. There wasnt a lot of diversity of any kind.
Toronto was such a formative experience for me of how vastly different the earth could be outside of my New England bubble.
This is what I love about travel how it exposes us to new ideas and ways of living, which can radically impact our possibilities.
During my senior year in high school, our French class took a trip to Quebec City.
Traversing the aged city in search of a flaky croissant, practicing our French ordering in restaurants, and wandering the ice maze at the Winter Carnival, I felt transported to France.
That summer, I organized a road trip with my friends to Montreal, taking one last vacation together before we went off to separate colleges.
Since those high school trips to Canada, Ive been endorse multiple times.

Experiencing Canadian Food
Canada is a melting pot of cultures and this is reflected in its food. Canadian cuisine is a fusion from around the nature, from Aboriginal to English and French to Asia and other cultures.
Poutine (a combination of fries, cheese curds and gravy) is often the first thing people think of when they think of Canadian food. From Quebec, there is also Montreal-style smoked meat (cured beef brisket) and Montreal-style bagels (wood-fired and thinner, sweeter and denser than other bagels).
Canada is also popular for its game meat (such as venison, caribou and moose), peameal bacon (back bacon cured and rolled in cornmeal), maple syrup and ice wine. Also on the must-have list: the Caesars, an alcoholic drink that contains vodka, a tomato and clam juice mix, hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce; butter tarts (sweet dessert tart); and Nanaimo bars (three-layered chocolate dessert).
