Hi, I'm Alex! Nice to meet you.
I'm an open minded person who loves discovering new cultures and sceneries.
I'm also an animal lover... I am a Bachelor in Bioinformatics and now I'm studying Animal Sciences as a Masters Candidate. Briefly, my main project is to protect the genetic diversity of the Canadian dairy cattle.

I like hiking, go to concerts, play tennis... there's not much that I dislike!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Locals know their city the best; that's why I want to meet you!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'd say that my favorite band to this day is Sum 41 (Canadian punk rock music)
My favorite movie (which will still be if you ask me 50 years from now) is Schindler's List, as much for the music as for the movie itself.
I don't read a lot of books, but the one that impressed me the most is the Kite Runner (I was in high school when I read it...)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

First thing that comes to mind is my cultural exchange with another student in Cuba. I went there for 10 days only, but it was a very special and enriching experience to accompany a Cuban at his school and his home with his family.
