First thing you should do:

Since almost every park has a small skating ring, I will give some tips where to go.

La Patinoire du Vieux-Port de Montréal
@corinapavel
Beautiful and large skating rink; if you don't have skates and helmet you can rent them, you can pay debit or credit and you have locker room, too. Great for kids, couples, solo, 50+. I love it!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hey, my name is Corina , I’m a passionate traveler since I was 16, who loves exploring new destinations every year with my loved ones. About me? Well, currently I live in Montreal, Québec since 2016, but born and raised in Romania, happily married (16 years, but how is counting?) and by day I'm a laboratory technician in biotechnology. I also love to cook , read and go camping! With a knack for customizing vacations for Canada and Romania, I share invaluable tips to ensure worry-free trips for everyone: family, couples, young travelers, 50+ and persons with reduce mobility (I try to make trips more accessible to those with reduce mobility!) I pay attention to detail when researching local restaurants, accommodations, and activities and I encourage you to try new things to step out of your comfort zone, like I did with my mother. I love working with mid-range budget travelers, like me, because I know how hard it is to earn money and how easily and quickly it is to spent in a vacation. Whether it’s discovering Romania's enchanting landscapes, Quebec's charm or Ontario's natural wonders, my unique expertise ensures each trip is a revelation. Most people don't have time to plan their dream vacation, so I`ll take care of everything, so everyone relishes each moment of the trip. So, let me craft your unforgettable travel escapades! Life is short, so enjoy every moment! Corina, your dedicated travel planner
