I love dishes that tell a story. Phnom Penh dry noodle soup brings together springy noodles, shrimp, squid, minced pork, and fish cake, served with a rich pork bone broth on the side. Two bowls, one unforgettable meal. #CamboThai #Montreal

Sometimes, I don’t need to travel far to feel somewhere else. I only need a quiet bridge, still water, and a few moments with my own thoughts. In places like this, the noise fades, time slows down, and I remember that peace is often closer than I think. 🌿 #BassindelaBrunante #Montreal

William Kurelek’s Kanada Sibir! (1974) is a masterclass in aggressive minimalist realism.” At first glance, you might think the canvas is just 80% white primer that the artist forgot to finish. But look closer. That’s not a blank canvas; that’s a monolithic, soul-crushing wall of snow. 😬 #Montreal

I kept it classic tonight. A beautifully seasoned beef tartare with capers, shallots, mustard, and cornichons, served with crispy fries and a glass of Prosecco. Simple ingredients, flawless execution, and every bite worth slowing down for. 🥂🥩 #HenriBrasserieFrançaise #Montreal

Stepping into Valérie Potvin’s solo exhibition, Ether, at Chiguer art contemporain, What struck me first was Le Sommeil (2026), a chalky white plaster figure lies in a state of quiet, evocative repose while a striking, oversized insect-like form crawls along its back. #Montreal

There is something deeply poetic about wandering through these streets and stumbling upon architectural gems like this corner house in Saint-Henri. Built around 1890, its striking red brick, distinctive Second Empire mansard roof, and that beautifully whimsical. #Montreal

I came in for a latte and left with dessert in a cup. A s’mores latte with rich chocolate ganache, crunchy graham crackers, and toasted marshmallows. Cozy, nostalgic, and dangerously delicious. ☕🤎 #CafeLeo #Montreal

Stepping in front of Hasegawa Terukazu’s large-scale canvas, Some Times (時々), I felt an immediate, heavy pull into its claustrophobic world. The painting masterfully balances expressionist tension with a quiet, surrealist melancholy that is hard to shake. #国立新美術館 #Tokyo

Ryo Sekino’s Goblet (mezza stampatura) Series (2022) As someone deeply appreciative of structural lines and material authenticity, I find Sekino’s approach to the traditional Venetian mezza stampatura technique to be a masterclass in cross-cultural design. #サントリー美術館 #Tokyo

Standing right in front of the Minami-Aoyama Vingt-Sept Building, a brilliant slice of 1980s Japanese Postmodernism designed by Yuzuru Tominaga. It is exactly the kind of bold, eccentric design that makes exploring the backstreets of Aoyama so rewarding. #南青山ヴァンセットビル #Tokyo

Beyond its physical structure, what strikes me most is the design of the surrounding forest. This isn’t a natural wilderness; it’s an engineered ecosystem planted a century ago with over 100,000 trees to become a self-sustaining, eternal sanctuary. #明治神宮一の鳥居 #Tokyo

I wandered through Shinjuku in the rain, with no destination in mind. Tokyo has a way of making you feel both anonymous and deeply connected. Thousands of lives moving in every direction, yet for a moment, we were all sharing the same rain, the same reflections, the same night. #Tokyo

Lines of ink, a lifetime of silhouette. Just Yohji Yamamoto, the legendary avant-garde designer, his shadow, and his most loyal companion frozen on the concrete of Aoyama. A master and his dog Rin, permanently etched into the soul of Tokyo. #YohjiYamamoto #青山本店 #Tokyo

When a local spot gets ranked among the best burgers in the world, you just have to go. 🏆 The Cali burger completely lived up to the hype, especially next to a bowl of Ol’ Dirty Fries and a cold lime Jarritos. 10/10 lunch situation. 👌🍔

Comme cette maison du Plateau, le Québec porte les traces du temps, quelques imperfections et beaucoup de caractère. Mais sous ses branches, entre son histoire et ses rêves, on y trouve quelque chose de précieux : un sentiment d’appartenance. Bonne fête, Québec. Malgré tout, on est bien chez nous 💙⚜️

“Every five minutes my human appears for another cuddle. At this point, I can’t tell if I’m a dog or an emotional support pillow. I like to file a formal complaint with the Husky Union! 😒” #Montreal

Je suis en colère. En colère contre cette idéologie toxique des incels qui transforme la frustration en haine, la haine en violence et, trop souvent, la violence en tragédie.

Mes pensées accompagnent les proches du policier tombé en service, sa collègue gravement blessée, ainsi que la famille du citoyen décédé. Que ceux qui souffrent aujourd’hui trouvent un peu de réconfort dans la solidarité de toute une communauté. 🫶💙 #Montreal

In his installation Gym, Taiwanese sculptor Wu Lien-Yin achieves a striking, visceral juxtaposition between industrial coldness and organic vitality. Set against the stark white walls of MoCA Taipei, the sculpture immediately arrests the viewer with its strange, hybridized anatomy #臺北當代藝術館 #Taipei

Exhibited within the pristine galleries of the National Palace Museum, Yu Fei-an’s A Pair of Cranes stands as a brilliant testament to the mid-20th-century revival of the gongbi (court-style meticulous brushwork) tradition. #國立故宮博物院 #Taipei

I turned a corner in Taipei and found myself standing in front of Liu Shandong Beef Noodles. No neon spectacle. No marketing. Just a weathered alley, a line of locals, and decades of steam rising from the same kitchen. #Taipei

Look up inside the Yonghe Baofu Temple (永和保福宮) in Taipei, and you’ll find yourself staring into a breathtaking vortex of gold, crimson, and emerald. This spectacular structure is a Zǎojǐng (藻井), or caisson ceiling, a masterpiece of traditional Chinese and Taiwanese religious architecture. #Taipei

I stood in Xinyi Plaza as the sun slipped behind the skyline, turning the glass and steel of Taipei into shades of gold and blue. As the city lights slowly came alive, I found myself caught between day and night, between where I came from and where the road had taken me. #Taipei

Walking through the tunnels of Guandu Temple in Taipei, I found myself surrounded by thousands of glowing red lights. These are Guangming Deng (光明的燈), or Blessing Lamps who made an offering for a year of health, protection, and good fortune. #財團法人臺北市關渡宮 #Taipei

Confession: My husky and I may be accomplices to a serial killer. Every time I brush him in the garden, some of his fur ends up in the grass and flower beds. The neighborhood birds happily collect it to build cozy little nests. That’s when the killer strikes. My cat. #Montreal

what does it mean to Be, now? by Stanley Février In his 2020 plaster sculpture, what does it mean to Be, now? (from the series Les grands espoirs), Haitian-born artist Stanley Février presents a powerful, unsettling subversion of traditional institutional portraiture. #Montreal

The perfect summer compromise: mango for the tropical escape, raspberry for the little kick of tartness. One cone. Two flavors. Zero regrets. 🍦☀️🥭🍓 #Cremeriesaintpaul #Montreal

Not a taco, not a crepe... it’s a Brazilian tapioca! This is incredible parmesan-crusted tapioca sandwich loaded with pulled beef, cheddar, and bold flavors. Side note: you cannot leave without trying their authentic Pão de Queijo and that vibrant homemade mango & passion fruit juice! #Montreal

20 meters of pure solo execution. This might just be Montreal’s longest continuous single-person tag, framed perfectly by the canal. #Redchairsonwater #Montreal

Breakfast? Lunch? Why choose. A half waffle piled high with banana, peanut butter, Nutella, and silky custard, paired with a smoked meat Benedict loaded with tender Montreal smoked meat, a perfectly poached egg, melted Swiss, and rich hollandaise. Sweet, savory, and absolutely unapologetic #Montreal

Originally from southern Vietnam, “bún riêu ốc” is one of those dishes I rarely find in Montreal. This fragrant soup combines sweet crab, tangy tomatoes, silky egg, pork sausage, fresh herbs, and tender snails in a broth that’s both comforting and complex. #Montreal

In the historic, sun-drenched courtyard of Salzburg's episcopal heritage, Paolo Grassino’s sculpture stands as a striking, monochromatic disruption. By rendering a massive, anatomically accurate human heart out of cold, industrial-looking segments, #Salzburg

While exploring the Hagenauer House where Mozart was born, I stumbled upon this fascinating piece in the collection. It’s a 1828 lithograph from Georg Nikolaus von Nissen. But the real treasure is what’s framed inside it: two actual locks of Mozart’s hair, preserved for over two centuries. #salzburg

Hidden among the trees of Hellbrunn, the Sound of Music Pavilion feels surprisingly small in person. Yet this simple glass gazebo became part of movie history when Liesl and Rolf danced and sang ‘Sixteen Going on Seventeen’ here in 1965. #salzburg

Early morning in Salzburg, while wandering the streets with my camera, I noticed an elderly man sitting quietly beneath Stephan Balkenhol’s Sphaera. In front of him, a chessboard. Half a game. Half a story. Maybe he was waiting for an opponent who was running late. #salzburg

I’m sitting by the Salzach as the last light slips behind Salzburg. Across the river, a young woman wanders slowly through the evening. No phone. No hurry. Every so often, she stops, looks around, takes a breath, and continues on her way. #salzburg

Midday in Salzburg. Finding a quiet corner at Carpe Diem Lounge to watch the world blur past behind the glass. Treating myself to their signature stirred iced coffee, velvety vanilla ice cream melting into rich Afro coffee, piled high with whipped cream. #salzburg

When I was a kid, my uncle often took me to “grown-up” restaurants. Nothing extravagant, but I remember how special it felt. Sitting at the table, ordering from the menu, being treated like I belonged in the adult world for an evening. Years later, I’m trying to recreate those moments with my niece

I came across the stunning Morin Building, built in 1922 on Avenue du Parc. Designed by architect Marius Dufresne, this beautiful commercial building features striking Collegiate Gothic influences, complete with intricate stonework and some of the finest gargoyles in the city. #Montreal

Two steamed all-dressed hot dogs, a classic poutine drowning in gravy and squeaky cheese curds, and a cold cola on the side. No reinvention, no fine dining tricks, just the kind of comfort food that has kept Montrealers coming back for over 45 years. #Montreal

In Guerreros en cautiverio III, Mexican artist Betsabeé Romero layered critique of modernity, colonial legacy, and cultural memory. By transforming a mundane, mass-produced object, a rubber car tire, into a canvas for intricate pre-Columbian iconography, #Montreal

At Under Pressure, artists are given complete freedom, and it shows. No briefs, no filters, no limits, just imagination unleashed on brick walls. That creative freedom is what makes Montreal’s street art scene so vibrant, unexpected, and alive #Montreal

Importation du bétail texan suspendue au Canada: une larve pourrait pousser le prix de votre bœuf à la hausse

Fog rolling over Mount Royal Cemetery this morning. Built in 1852, this historic Protestant rural cemetery was designed as a “cemetery-park,” blending natural topography with Victorian landscape design. A quiet sanctuary of art, nature, and Montreal history. 🕊️ #CimetiereMontRoyal #Montreal

Backed by an impeccable provenance from the Luc Plamondon collection, this Marcelle Ferron’s Sans titre (1959)'s historical significance is undeniable. This pedigree was soundly validated on the auction block, where estimate to sell for an impressive 391 250 $ CAD. #Montreal

A promising new addition to Outremont. Smoky butter melting into warm sourdough, delicate Newfoundland scallops brightened with bergamot and mint, and sweet snow crab elevated by wild garlic. Every plate feels precise, seasonal, and effortlessly elegant. A beautiful start to the evening. #Montreal

There’s a distinct magic in watching a monument reveal itself through the fog. Climbing the 268 steps to reach the Tian Tan Buddha (The Big Buddha) felt less like a tourist trek and more like a quiet pilgrimage. #天壇大佛 #HongKong

Hong Kong doesn’t ask for your attention. It takes it. From Victoria Peak, the city looks impossible: towers packed between jungle-covered hills and a harbor that never seems to rest. Millions of people stacked toward the sky, all chasing something. #HongKong
