CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world, meet new people and experience new things

ABOUT ME

My name is Eric Gauthier. Yep... that's French, which means I should probably know how to speak the language, but I do not.

I am a stereotypically polite Canadian(eh!?). I don't like hockey. I do like Igloo's. You're welcome.

I'm friendly and easy going, open to meeting new people. Can sometimes be a little reserved at first, but a nice comforting beer usually fixes that.

Lately I've been a bit of a hermit since I've been entirely focused on saving enough $$ for my travels. I can't wait to experience new cultures, meet new people, and who knows... learn a little about myself along the way.

PHILOSOPHY

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

-Mark Twain

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Still a couple months until I leave, and am not able to host right now. Definitely willing to meet up/hang out though.

Intereses

Travel, Music, Soccer, Basketball, Photography, Architecture, History, Science...

I like to cook, and am pretty good at it. I used to spend an unhealthy amount of time watching The Food Network, but have since joined a support group... so that's no longer a problem.

I listen to a lot of music and am always finding new bands. I also play the guitar... just not very well.
