Why I’m on Couchsurfing
The things we always remember from a travel is the people we meet. Couch surfing is an amazing opportunity to meet wonderful persons and to encourage alternative forms of travelling. I have absolutely not regretted any of my experiences as a couch surfer.
Interests
I enjoy life because of all the diversity it offers. I like hanging out with friends, playing music (I play violin, guitar and piano), listening to music, cooking, reading, swimming, skiing, hiking. In all those activities, I don't narrow myself to one type of interest. For example, I listen to classical music, as I listen to pop, as 80's, etc. I like to read novels, as philosophy books, as astrophysics books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I was once hosted by a sect's guru, in the rainforest. Took me a time to realize though, but I managed to get out of there. I can tell you more about this crazy experience!
I hitchhiked throughout Canada, from Montreal to Vancouver, with a friend. We did rock climbing, cherry picking, slept with bears and cougars, showered in glacier water, hiked for days on the Juan the Fuca trail, and more. A memorable summer.
