Our Story

MTL-Compass-Founder-Leo-Blanchard

Hey! I’m Leo, a student at Concordia University in the Business program. My first year has been full of ups and downs, trying to fit in, trying to discover Montreal, not having time to do it all… That’s why I decided to create MTL Compass, basically an overview (with a touch of humour) of the multiple activities that Montreal offers to its students.

MTL Compass gives you the tips and tricks to enjoy the Montreal life like you’re supposed to. Whether you’re a food addict, an explorer or a dreamer; you will find what you’re looking for. Find the best places in town for the lowest budget! It’s nothing fancy, just good looking and good tasting to make you want to enjoy Montreal even more (while studying, very challenging if you ask me).

I invite you to follow the journey with pictures and articles that will make you dream! Now that you know a little bit more about me and the reason behind the creation of MTL Compass, I hope you will enjoy the places as much as I did!

Welcome to the Canadian lifestyle! Studies and good life finally come together.

I’m open to collaborations, if you have any ideas that you would like to share or you have places to recommend, just feel free to contact me by filling out the form below!
