Quebec City Travel Vlog - Paris of North America?!
Рет қаралды 11,295
Күн бұрынQuebec City is officially ticked off my bucket list. I scored cheaper flights here in Nov 2019 and knew I had to come. I've been wanting to come here for FOREVER. And it was just as magical as I expected, even during off-peak season. If you don't ever want to fly to France to experience French culture, just come to Quebec. You'll seriously feel like you're in France.

👩💻 ABOUT ME:
My name is Julie and I'm a 20-something year old lover of travel who works a typical 8-5 banking job in San Diego, CA. In 2015, my study abroad experience in Shanghai infected me with the travel bug, and I've been trotting the globe ever since. My goal is to show everyone that you can occupy a day job and still do things you've ALWAYS dreamt of on the weekends or during your paid time off. Oh, and if I'm not traveling, you'll most likely find me exploring new restaurants within SoCal. I'm never ashamed to also say that I will travel far... just for food. Stay tuned for travel vlogs, food guides, style lookbooks, and whatever comes to my mind 🙃

Yes, Chateau Frontenac is expensive, butvyou can stop for a drink or tea. It is also great to people watch on Dufferin Terrasse, but not as pleasant in Novembrr. French is a beautiful language, and if you visit Quebec often, you can really get to know the Quebecois better with knowledge of French. The food is so great, and the French appreciate if you attempt their language - it is a sign of respect. The Riviere St Laurent makes the cold more bone-chilling. On a future trip, book a boat to the Saguenay Fjord, north of QC.

Your Airbnb is literally the house next door to my one bedroom. Not saying which side. This summer was REALLY quiet(2021). Almost no tourists. Just enough to make Mcdonald's happy. And they started a building right in front, so DON'T choose the same spot for the next 6 months.

Montreal gives the full Paris effect, but QC is very nice as well. French is more widely-spoken in QC than Montreal, which is very bi-lingual. Not all QC menus have English translations.

@hugostiglitz2388 3 жыл бұрын
Dream on you idiot, there is no comparison between the city of lights and the Montreal city of language fights. There is no culture in Quebec but if you think there is, explain it. Also, you lie about all menus having English translations. That's just what the Quebecers tell us. English is a virtually outlawed language and Quebec has recently passed legislation to boost racist laws against their immigrants. They want to promote their Quebec language by keeping others out.

@@hugostiglitz2388 why compare Quebec with Paris. Both places are so different from each other in terms of architecture, culture etc. It's like comparing any English speaking place in North America with London just because the same language is spoken there.

@@marchauchler1622 no the architecture in quebec city and montreal are the same as the architecture in northern france cities since most of the french settlers came from the north and i get what he meant with parisian vibe, i'm french and what he meant i think is the ambiance which is similar to a lot of places in central paris

My boyfriend and I were planning to take a trip to Quebec City sometime next year, maybe summertime? So thank you for the wonderful video! I hope you two had an amazing time there. May I ask, how hard was it to navigate and order from menus? Were there waiters who could speak in English or menu items translated? I plan to brush up on french and use google translate as much as I can, but wanted to know what I should be expecting
@WorldwideWu 3 жыл бұрын
Hi! Summertime would be such a lovely time to go to Quebec City. I speak basically no French and it was no problem for me to navigate through the city. Waiters and other stuff will speak to you in French first or maybe even ask you if you speak French, and once you tell them no, they will speak to you in English. I only encountered one person that didn’t speak English and French (she worked at a convenience store and funny thing is she spoke Chinese as her mother language and I speak that so we spoke in Chinese 😂). Menus and directions are in French but most of the time have English translations right below. So you should have no problem!!

Yeah, prettymuch everyone working service jobs in the heart of the city speaks English and French and the vast majority of the population will know enough to get a general understanding. Worst case scenario you can ask for help from customers, there is always someone speaking English. Sumer time is hot and humid a lot of times and we are not too used to have climatisation (climate change is hitting us hard and we are still adapting, there was barely any 30 oC + days during sumer when I was a kid, now they are comon occurence and the river is making thing blistering hot and humid, even people comming from North Affrica find it hard to tolerate) On the plus side it is lively and much easier to visit in therm of logistics.

Francophobia is alive and well in Canada. Avis aux francophones, les Canadiens anglais ne supportent pas que des gens parlent autre chose que l'anglais. Ils se disent ouverts à la diversité.....pourvu que ça soit en anglais.

@@hugostiglitz2388 First of all, I am not French Canadian, and 2nd of all, you are ignorant of history, if you think the British treated the French well. The French were in North America first. The French language is beautiful. Sorry if you do not like it. There are many things the French do better than others. Having a dual heritage is better for Canada than trying to childishly prove one is better than the other. I love traveling in Eastern Canada with the Quebecois, and Montreal is not 9nly Canada's beat cities, it is one of the world's best!
