What our students said about Montreal
I'm definitely in love with this city. However, having travelled along the Saint Lawrence two years ago, I found the people more friendly. But after all, Montreal is a capital, so maybe the people aren't as friendly... like in Paris ;) Otherwise, I also noticed that the boulevard Saint Laurent was to be avoided, if you didn't want to run into people ‘hanging around’ in the streets... Climate-wise, it was so hot and heavy this summer! Despite these points, Montreal is still my favourite city at the moment!
5.0Soline France
The tax in this province is crazily high. But there're lots of good shops and restaurants.
3.0Han Jou Canada
It’s a vibrant incredibly beautiful city

I really enjoyed meeting people, both students and teachers.
The fact that French and English were given priority in certain areas really made it possible to meet some great people. Thank you so much! I enjoyed my 3 week course at BLI :)

Information about Montreal
Why Montreal? Montreal, Canada's second largest city, is geographically as close to the European coast as to Vancouver, and in look and feel it combines some of the finest aspects of the two continents. Its North American skyline of glass and concrete rises above churches and monuments in a medley of European styles, a medley as complex as Montreal´s social mix.
What we like about Montreal
- Two official languages in one city.
- Cheaper than other larger Canadian cities.
- Dynamic art scene.
- Cultural hub.
What we dislike about Montreal
- Infrastructure is troublesome.
- Winters drop to considerably low temperatures.
