About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discovering Switzerland ! Et peut-être percer les mystères de ce pays qui m'intrigue beaucoup. (et plus concrètement, participer à une conférence sur les circulations étudiantes à Fribourg)

ABOUT ME

Respectful and empathetic, I'm a good combination of "being on my own" and "hanging with people". When I travel, I tend to enjoy both. Living new experiences and sharing them with the people I meet is so important to grow.

Right now, I'm starting a post-doctoral degree in history at the University of Toronto, while teaching to undergraduates from time to time.

Oh, et je suis Canadien français.

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to make the people around me better

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In Cambridge UK with Connor and Kate (Spring 2013), in Helsinki with Sarah (Summer 2013), and then in Berlin with an awesome family (Summer 2014)

Literally, couchsurfing reconciled me with the world when I first started using it.
