About Me

I visited the world through the eyes of the travelers when I worked at Tadoussac's Youth hostel in Québec. I've lived in the north for over 9 years now and I miss good passionate travel discussions.

I try to stay active by doing all sorts of outdoors activities year round but I also enjoy a good lazy night or party night with good people.

If you're not sure exactly what, when and how you're gonna spend your time in Fort Smith, I can gladly help you with that, I studied 6 years in "tourism" and really enjoy helping people discover the place.

I used to be an interpreter and I sometimes miss those days so I can passionately tell you all I know about the area.

There's a paddle club in town and a Paddling festival on August long weekend every summer. You should definitely come that weekend!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What I Can Share with Hosts

I worked in a youth hostel for some years before moving up north and have always loved to facilitate tourists vacation anywhere I lived. I work for Parks Canada here and can help with scheduling trips and find places to go see, things to do, people to meet. If I'm on days off, I might just invite you on a canoe trip or fishing trip or little trekk or something.
