As we arrived here in autumn we came in the middle of the slow season so we took on some odd jobs to make some money to pay for the rent. It felt weird to be talked to in French in all the shops and cafes. However a few French lessons later we were on our feet and could get along easily with the locals here.
The winter season is when this town comes alive. Besides skiing and snowboarding there are loads of other things to do including skating, snowshoeing, dog sledding (yes all the rumours are true!) and snowmobiling.
The place we are staying is a quaint little town called Saint Jovite with beautiful scenery and a great location only minutes away from the mountain. Right now we’re working a lot and enjoying the great Canadian winter!
