During this year’s spring break in March, or what universities ironically calls “reading break”, I went on a three day trip to Quebec City with my good friend and her sister. Having lived in Quebec for half a year, I had embarrassingly not visited Quebec City yet and so I thought it would be about time to visit. Looking back, I am glad we did, especially before the virus swept everyone’s vacation plans away. Still, though we cannot physically leave the house right now, we can still plan, and in today’s blog I hope give you some ideas for your next Quebec City trip.

For those who prefer rapidly surfing through the web (I don’t blame you, I am myself), here are the summary of the places we visited in order and some useful links;
