She spent the whole week in his appartement with zero interest in the city itself. That was extreme, of course, no matter how charming my son is. But still, I told him… well, she is from London, what could you possibly show her in Montreal that would impress her ? Not much of course. Except of course… the vibe, the ambiance of the city, but that is intangible. You have to let yourself drowned in it.
