Quebec City of my Dreams #CanadianVisitList
I was born and raised in Prince Edward County, Ontario, and while I have explored many charming towns across the province, I’ve never experienced life beyond Ontario. My parents spent their childhoods travelling across the country, so as adults, they set their sights on tropical destinations — which meant exploring Canada hasn’t been a part of my life. This summer that changes! My goal is to experience Canada beyond Ontario, one adventure at a time. My first stop: a romantic couple’s getaway to Quebec City and the surrounding region.
Here’s my VisitList of the sites I hope to explore — full of art, culture, and historic charm!

This cultural centre also offers guided tours, Afternoon tea, and so much more!
