Answer
It all depends on your interests and what time of the year that you come here.

The two largest cities in Quebec are Quebec City (provincial capital) and Montreal. Both cities have been around for over 300 years so there are all sorts of historical buildings and things to see.

Quebec City was built on the site of an old fort, and so parts of the city are actually protected by fort walls that pass through the city. You can see the architecture, visit the museums, walk on battlefields (Plains of Abraham), and watch whales from a boat cruise of the St. Laurence river. In winter, there is a festival that includes all sorts of winter sports and activities, and even a hotel made of ice that only lasts a few weeks.

In Montreal, you have a very lively nightlife, the Old Port tourist area, museums, art galleries, Notre-Dame Basilica, and Mount Royal. In the summer, there is the fireworks festival, Just for Laughs comedy shows, Jazz festival, the casino, and the Grand-Prix of Montreal.

If you want to get away from the big cities, you can visit the Eastern Townships (south of Montreal) or the Laurentians (north of Montreal) in winter for snowshoeing or skiing, and hiking or golf in summer.

There is also the Gaspe region, where you can see great views of the ocean, icebergs, more whale watching, and have some of the best seafood in the province.

You can visit Hull, another city in Quebec that offers its own casino, and is only a bridge distance away from Canada's national capital, Ottawa where there are many sites to see.

Finally for the ultimate adventurist, if you like camping, hiking, and fishing, you can take a trip up to northern Quebec. Whether you decide to rent a cabin up there for the summer, or rough it using a tent and canoe, you can have your own piece of wilderness to get away from it all and just recharge your batteries away from cell phones and pagers.

I do not know what to do and I am really boored


Answer
I am never bored. When I was 15 or 16 years old, I participated in 55 different activities and sports outside of high school. My activities back then ranged from playing chess with international chess players like Bobby Fisher and Larry Evans (25 tables played each of them at the same time) to fly fishing for brook trout in remote lakes and rivers to walking through the thick bush hunting grouse with my grandfather's shotgun, snowshoeing in the winter, high diving, tent camping in the winter, taking long canoe trips, whale watching for free near Tadoussac, Quebec, doing drafting drawings on my own drafting table, learning another language. Today, I still keep my mind and body active. In the last 25 years, I have traveled to 17 different countries. Even though I'm 65 now, I just completed a critical report on two web sites I was complaining about. The report was 16 pages long in size 11 font. I have been referenced in a British newspaper for a legal matter I was involved in, the same matter was also picked up by newspapers in Houston, Texas and Orlando, Florida. I was offered a teaching position to (teach a particular law course in a college) even though I had to write supplementary exams to squeak through in my last year of high school and even though I have never attended a university or college. After failing my last year of high school I did not give up and say to myself "what will I do with the rest of my life all my friends have gone on to attend university - oh, woe is me?". No, on the contrary, I just kept going. I have played my guitar on two different vinyl albums and played live to 900 people. I feel young, I accomplish a lot during my busy day. I always look on the "bright side of life". I have been interviewed live on TV and on the radio.I have, all alone, sailed a small sailboat by from a town in Ontario Canada to a town in New York State. I flew alone to Bermuda (a country I had never been to in my life) and I was paid in advance to follow a couple around the island for four days with a 1,000 mm zoom lens when I was a private investigator. There are all kinds of things to do with your time. We all have gifts and abilities. What are yours? Go out and perfect one or two of those gifts...do not sit at home and be bored. Take a course in spelling and learn the correct spelling of the word is not boored.
