I see the maple leave in the airplane I can see next to window here in Montreal’s airport. I believe I actually will start the procedure of missing the city, imagining me here some minutes during the day, during the night, maybe I will dream myself in Montreal.
I don’t believe there is a perfect city in the world but there are some cities that match personalities and for me I can say that this is a city that has also matched my personality, I found it deeply romantic, with her big buildings, full of lights, but most importantly with a big green area, with such an amazing place as Mont Royal. Definitely it has the modern part of being such a great nation, developed and with a good policy when you talk about economics but you can surely feel the warmness of each place you go, maybe that’s from the Latinos heritage, I bet it is.
I also know I will remember this trip all my life, maybe not with the fully details I can remember it right now, that’s why I’m also writing this up, so that maybe when I read it years later I can still remember the feelings it created in me. I don’t think or maybe I’m giving this trip a higher value than it should have but I’m not doing it because I just want to, it feels right at this moment to do so. First, I saw my favorite tennis player, I have never seen him played live in fact, that’s maybe the sweetest thing I take from Toronto. However, yes, I did see him but I saw him playing doubles, that’s such a weird thing, and other thing is that, he lost. That is what made it more “unique” of the fact that I saw Roger Federer play which in fact made my day and the trip, I can´t be more happy of having seeing him just a few meters from me but the funny things are the circumstances.
I am going home knowing that the world is big, that the reality and the timing play a great deal and that is not always like you would like it to be. I just wanted to tell me that I am going to Lima to finish my studies, and then I will fight with my life to go and study abroad and who knows maybe London, maybe Paris, maybe Montreal, maybe Spain, right? This trip has made me want to be a better person, although I know this sound cheesy but it’s true.
