Somewhere I wish I could be right now – Les Laurentides

After spending this first second semester month in Finland, I’m waiting for summer. Snow is melting, spring is so early and everything feels so depressing, grey and actually very ugly. 

Those day have been thinking about last summer a lot, in Quebec (canada) I miss my friends, my life over there. everything was all about friends, discovery, chill and a bit of work! But I’m dreaming about those camping days in “Les Laurentides”, amazing weather, nobody around, fire camp and canoes.

“Les Laurentides” is located in the north of Saint Laurent river, near Montreal, it’s a lake land with hills, natural beaches and amazing sunsets everyday. You can see the stars in summer and listen to the sweet sound of silence (if there is no mosquitos to disturb this!).

We went there paddling canoes(I was taking pictures and taking sun bath in the boat) and slept 2 nights. We brang hammock, water toys, good food, beers, swimsuits, happiness and stories. It’s been one of my favorite moment during my trip in Canada because phones were off, nobody could disturb us, it was wild, back to nature and lake-bath, nothing but us and the wood. It’s been the most relaxing moment I’ve ever felt before coming in Finland, of course (Here it’s relaxing everyday!).

But I miss this time and everybody there, It’s been an amazing trip (should I say internship?) and I will be back for sure in Canada. I’m not done with you, wild and huge country! Next step probably the west part : Banff is one of my dream!

See you soon lovely Quebec.
