About Me

I'm a young man trying to discover the world one city at a time. I believe I have more to learn from people than all the books ever written. I'm easy going, quite humorous, somewhat of an intellectual and impatient to try all the dishes ever cooked..! I'm a philanthropist at heart and I believe in a world

I've only started to travel about a year ago, it was long overdue. I went to Asia last November trying to push my boundaries and experience something very different. I went for 40 days without any plan, just going city to city as I pleased. I met some amazing people that showed

About four years ago, I finished my degree in Marketing and Management at HEC Montreal. I worked three years for the Yellow Pages before leaving to work in the family business. Now, I'm taking some time off to travel and witness the greatness of human kind.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that I will learn from a country's culture by interacting with the people. Museums can teach you the past, but the current accomplishments of a nation are through the people. Therefore, I want to meet locals and learn about their habits, their food, their language, their customs, etc.

Interests

I'm a philanthropist, therefore, I'm passionate about helping my friends and community in any way possible. I like to volunteer and coach basketball on my spare time. I truly enjoy watching sports, more specifically hockey, american football and soccer.
