ABOUT ME
Holà !
I m a forthy something girl who enjoys meeting new people from around the globe.
I was raised and born here in the Montreal aera, I know the city and surroundings very well. As a backpacker myself i know how it is appreciated to be with locals who can help out, give tips and offer cheap boarding.
I have been to Budapest, parts of USA, Mexico, Central America (Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Guatemala y Honduras) and South America (Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia) Tunisia, Morocco, and Madagascar. I will soon explore new countries and can't wait to discover Chile, Eastern Europe and Asia. There are so much to be seen.
I like to talk about life, culture, music, politics. I enjoy a good reading either a social essay (Gladwell), philosophical (Lenoir, Jodorowski, Pinkola Estes) or just a good damn book (life of pi, Millenium, and so much more). I also like going to the theater, the cinema and dancing until the wee hours or under the full moon. I love to get lost and finding my way out, discovering things for the first time and learning new things everyday.
I like having people with me and as a host I try to make people feel at home when they stay with me. I do see this has a way to meet authentic and new potential friends.
I think life is so perfect if we live simply and let people simply live.
PHILOSOPHY
Live simply so that others may simply live.
Learn as if you are going to live forever, Live as if you are going to die tomorrow.
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.
