I love books and cooking. I love rustic kitchens that say "Come here. Spend the day making great things" Susie's home has those things. It also has exposed brick, lots of plants, two incredibly comfortable beds, musical instruments, and is located on a beautiful tree-lined street that is a couple of short blocks from grocery stores, cinemas, and a wonderful wine store. We got our 10,000 daily steps in by going to old Montreal, shopping along the streets, and walking back. It is a short walk to Place des Arts. We had a busy schedule while we were in Montreal, and I want to come back again just to sit in the living room, next to the beautiful windows overlooking the street, reading one of the books she has My husband and I are in the downsizing phase, so I am not buying any more books (Kindle doesn't count!); I was so happy to look at the various titles, everything from the life of ants to feminism to all kinds of books on art and music. If you are looking for sleek, minimalistic surroundings, you might want to look elsewhere. If, however, you are looking for cozy, comfortable, and inviting, this is your place!
