About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel ! And learn as much as I can.

ABOUT ME

I study, I eat, I teach zumba parttime, I run half-marathons. I love ideas, cultures, drinks, anything related to science and medicine. :) I'm pretty much interested in everything and anything, I can't wait to travel more and discover the cultures and landscapes life has to offer !

PHILOSOPHY

I am a happy person. I basically believe in learning as much as you can, exposing yourself to new realities or experiences, and always doing your best in everything. I also believe that seeking to make the world a better place is the best life mission I can give myself. As cheesy as it sounds. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am still very new to the whole CS thing, but I'm getting to know it and hopefully will have time to be more implicated in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have never couchsurfed before ! A friend who has done it many times told me about it, and I am very eager to try !

Interests

Science, culture, human behaviour, history, politics, ideologies, food, music, dance (I love to dance !), arts, and of course travel. I basically get interested in whatever I have the occasion to discuss, and I love having the opportunity to discover new subjects !

Music, Movies, and Books

While I no longer define myself by the music I listen to, I think it still is a great conversation starter ! I listen to a lot of genres, from Latin pop to post-hardcore/screamo to classical. I am always looking forward to hearing something different.
I love Tim Burton's movies.
As for books... I absolutely love Amelie Nothomb, Alexandre Dumas, Charles Baudelaire, Paolo Giordano and Edgar Allan Poe, just to name a few.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's not done yet, but I want to be a doctor. I want to save lives and do research, and I think that will be a pretty amazing thing to do. As for an amazing thing I have seen... a sunrise on a beach in Gaspésie (Québec) with my family was a very beautiful moment. A sunset on the beach in Ixtapa, Mexico was very beautiful as well.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am very willing to share my abilities in English and French, and even Spanish. I can discuss many subjects, from the Canadian culture, and that of Québec, to my personal traveling experience as well as my (still developing) knowledge of medicine. As for learning, I want to learn as much as I can on anything.
