“When you leave New York, you ain't goin' nowhere”

I meet alot of people who say they love Montreal, and i meet a few people who say they dont like it very much. It bothers me when people dont like the city! I want people to like it here so that i dont feel as though im missing out on something else out there. My sister said she talked to someone who stayed here in MTL for a bit and didnt like it they also never used the metro system. I dont think that you can enjoy something if you are not using it properly. Trying to ride a bike backwards might work but its hard! If your not going to embrace the functionality of a city then you will not enjoy it. Cities are like big machines where we manage to work and operate fluidly without bumping into one another, making life possible. So, i think that if you come here and expect to do things a different way than they are done here, you will have a bad time. You cant act like you are in calgary when you are in montreal, you cant act like you are in new york in cowansville. If you want to enjoy a city you have to be the city your in.
