Like most (all?) people in Montreal, I woke up this morning, looked out my window, and saw one thing: lots and lots of snow.

Legit, it looks like we're living in a snow globe, or some kind of winter wonderland.

Which I get is kind of a weird thing to say. Usually, I'm all like, "snow!? More like s'no, am I right?" but recently I've been really feeling how magical Montreal looks under that thick white blanket of snow.

But this year, everyone's said the same thing: it's made the city look incredibly beautiful. Like something out of a movie, almost.
