We lucked out during our trip to Montréal, Quebec – the 2017 edition of the Montréal en Lumière festival, as well as the one-night-only Nuit Blanche (“White Night”) would be taking place while we were in town.
Rounding up my five go-to shoes for travel in 2017.
“If you don’t know it already, your flight has been canceled,” she said over the intercom, almost mockingly. Michael and I had been at the Milan airport for nearly nine hours when we heard this announcement. We’d shopped all there was to shop, eaten all we could manage to eat, and surfed the internet as …
