Frenchman wonders which way to go from Montreal

Hey there Canadians !

I'm currently staying at a friend's in Montreal and i'd like to use my time in Canada to visit the country outside of Montreal.

So far, my plan is to leave Montreal on July 6th and come back around July 16th or 17th, which leaves me 11 to 12 days to have a blast (including transport).

My two trip options are :

  1. Reach Hallifax by train, visiting other cities on the way (so far Quebec, Saint-John NB looks like a good stop for instance) if it makes sense time-wise. Following the Canada VIA Rail's Montreal-Halifax itinary and spending a day or two in most cities sounds like a plan for instance. This option feels more exciting to me tbh
  2. Opt for a more inland trip into Ontario to visit lakes and cities such as Ottawa, Toronto, Missisauga and/or Kingston. From my ignorant european french perspective this option somehow feels more like "the right way to visit Canada".

I'm interested in hikes as much as museums, or any other "must-see" place/monument Canada has to offer (which seems to be A LOT). Also, i'd love to see some concerts if i'm able, and i'm always excited to meet new people.

Things to know :

  • I'm packing a minimal camping gear (all sleep-necessary tools, not much else) in order to sleep out when possible.
  • I have a driving licence if necessary but i'd rather avoid renting a car as much as possible.
  • I have no USA VISA, so no border crossing for me.
  • I won't travel by plane if i can do otherwise.

ANYWAY, if anyone has recommandations in*-or-*outside of the stated options, i'm really interested to read them.

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read or answer me. I'll glady offer a beer to anyone who whishes to meet a fromtheothersideofthesea-man.

Cheers, merci, à plus tard !

How can i split my current DB into two DBs, first one summoning the second ?

Hey everyone. Kinda new to notion here.

I'm currently using just one DB to track my band booking.

It contains contact infos of venues followed by booking-related infos.

We've used google sheet so far, and have had no issue importing it to Notion.

Thing is : It's a bit unpractical at the moment, because the DB serves both as a booking tracker AND a contact DB.

I'd rather have a contact DB on one side, and my Booking tracker on another, calling said contact DB then adding booking infos to it when necessary. (also allowing me to do other stuff with the contacts elsewhere)

So far, i can't find a way to properly split the current DB in two, without having to link the booking DB to the contact DB manualy (300+ entries :( ).

Note : The Booking DB isn't meant to be called elsewhere, so it doesn't matter what its title (index?) is.

Is there any way that I can avoid spending 2 hours typing stuff ? :D

Cheers for the read and the help !
