Montréal - Gibeau Orange Julip and Unity Club - Just Dance!

Bonjour and au revoir Montréal.

Four weeks have passed and I will go home tonight. The last weekend was a blast. All my friends made some free time to say goodbye to me, but I guess the must sad moment was, when Nicolas and me said goodbye after having the most amazing party night in Montréal.

You can tell, that he was not amused kkk

Just an unregular Montréal Week!

Bonjour,

last week was super busy with wrapping up every experiment and every evaluation in Montréal. Poking went well, stainings went well, evaluation went well, furthermore I prepared all graphs, statistics and tables for the stuff I did here in Canada.
After all the work, I celebrated while having two Tim Horton Donuts and a XL Coffee on my sofa, but before doing so....

Neighbors are good to a walk, and Curry!

Bonjour, 

last Sunday, or actually I was feeling like going for a walk, yes we all grow up.
The weather was cold, but still amazing. So I asked my neighbor Cyrille to join and we made our way down to the old port and the old part of Montréal. 
 We talked about the reasons, why we moved to Montréal, about the pros and cons for the city and how it is to live abroad. It was nice to discuss with another European about the situation. Missing the feeling you get, while walking through Europe-style-streets....The old part of Montréal is still influenced by the early settlers. Equals, it feels like home. 



 Of course we stopped by the city hall.
 to get a nice view of Montréal.




 Temperature-wise we were forced to find shelter in a unbelievable stylish Café. OMG!
Yes, you got it... that's the entrance door...

 We went to CREW and I was not less than impressed by the location. 

 I guess on Friday I will grab my MacBook and go to CREW for work. 

 Some days later we saw each other again and went to Bighi Curry. I had Japanese style Curry....It was very similar to the Curry I had last year in Okinawa, so they get the Authentic-Taste-Medal. Actually, for the drinks I was biased. They had a Bloody Kim... Bloody Mary with Kimchi add on... Cyrille just ordered and was a little disappointed. I liked the idea of the drink in the end (But mine was still better, it had Kraken-Rum)!



While discussing the Marvel Universe (John, I did my best) I was mesmerized by this crazy painting...poor lady!

Casino Royal en Montréal

Bonjour,

todays night I went out with Nicolas for some cool stuff. We met at Berris to get to the Casino. Just one subway station apart the direct connection bus branded with the lucky number 777 was waiting for us. By the way the bus to the airport has the identification number 747, like the Boeing....

Easter Weekend - Inclusive an exclusive Easter-Egg-Hunt!

Bonjour,

this weekend was supposed to be a short holiday in Quebec. The whole hospital got 4 days off. Meaning...leaving Thursday evening, going back to work on Tuesday morning... guess what.. exchange students are not included in this equation. I feel like running out of time, and even after canceling my intentions to write on my thesis it feels like a work-marathon to get everything done before leaving Montréal. After the whole day at the lab, where I was doing great stuff, like cell poking, cell seedings, siRNA knockdowns, data evaluation and working on a coolio-protocolio I was taken to a very special Easter-Egg-Hunt.
