About me

Françoise Bâby

a.k.a. the centipede

(if that's a mouthful, call me "Fran")

The two most frequently asked questions on my tours are whether I am a native Montrealer and what my favourite “thing” about our city is. The answer to the first question is “yes”, and the answer to the second is “multiculturalism, which, in my view, best defines Montreal”.

 

Although I have a penchant for great food (my mother was French after all!), history and architecture, what I enjoy most about guiding is the interaction with participants on my tours! My wish is that they come away not so much with a tour or a lecture, but with an experience.
