Living in Canada: a unique experience… and sometimes exhausting
Canada is a world apart—both a cousin of France and yet distinctly different. Montreal is a city of duality, blending European heritage with North American spirit. A fertile ground for the curious and creative expatriate.
Language barriers, relentless pace, culture shock, emotional and geographical distance… Expatriation brings its share of daily challenges—often invisible but deeply felt—that can, over time, undermine your inner balance.
To address this, Wellness Voyages offers French expatriates in Canada short wellness breaks — 3-day daytime programs organized locally.
Designed to harmoniously fit your lifestyle, these French-language programs provide a confidential and rejuvenating setting. A precious pause to slow down, breathe, regain your vitality, and build connections with other French nationals where you live.
The climate, loneliness, and the invisible burden
The Canadian winter can be long, dark, and heavy. It slows the body, weighs on the mood, and can sometimes deepen a sense of loneliness.
Even in a welcoming environment, it’s common to feel disconnected from yourself, and to feel like you’re carrying a lot — in silence.
A space for you to reconnect with yourself
Our retreats, organized as immersive day programs, allow you to breathe, reconnect with your body, emotions, and desires—all without changing your daily habits. You participate in the programs during the day and return to your family and familiar surroundings each evening.
What we’re preparing for you IN CANADA:
Wellness retreats to reconnect, regain momentum, move forward with confidence, and shine:
-
Guided breathing sessions, gentle movements, personal expression, physical activities…
-
Workshops and activities focusing on balanced nutrition, stress management, self-confidence, and emotional reconnection…

Discover French brands and wellness products through engaging activities.
Moments to share among French speakers
Each program is also an opportunity to build connections among French expatriates, sharing your experiences in a confidential, caring, and human environment. You are not alone, and this collective dimension has a powerful impact on well-being.
