I'm a laid-back, open minded, curious girl. I think I will always feel that I had not travel enough. When I'm in Montréal, I'm always dreaming of the next travel. Fortunatly, my visual artist career leave me some liberty and free times so I try to travel every year.

I like open air activities such as hiking, canoïng, kayak, biking, running... But a short trip to the nearest parc for a simple picnic with nice compagnie is sometimes the best open air activity!

I like to dance even if I don't know to salsa or what ever. Laughing with someone everyday is important to me.

When I travel I'm interested in meeting local people to share a beer, a cup of coffee, good meals... and locals tips! I dig for visiting churches, flea markets, art museum and also: any other cultural type of things that would surprise me!

My life in Montréal: I'm freelance. I live with my boyfriend since 11 years, and I have two lovely cats to complete the family portrait. The 3 most precious thing I own is 1.my camera 2.my bike 3. my coffee machine. But I can live without them also, as long as I have wonderful people around ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm new on couch surfing. I am in Linz, Austria for a total of 2 month and my travel will continu until mid-january.
I had been alone enough time now, renting rooms and solo visiting (wich is a great experience also), and now I feel the need to meet local people for the rest of my journey.

I would like to go to Budapest, specifically. It is a last minute decision and I know nothing about Hungary. I feel that it would bring me lot of joy if I can share some moments with a "temporary friend" there who would recommand me some place to visit, and be willing to cook a meal and share wine.

Since I have no specific expectation about Budapest, every thing will be a surprise for me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Keeping making art no matter what
- I five days hike in the wild forest, drinking water from the rivers and having everything I needed in a backpack (I know this may sound not so amazing for very good hiker but to me this was amazing).
