About Me

I enjoy food, talking, beers and good times in general. I'm from Quebec and i work in the merchant marine as an navigation officer. I live in Rivière du Loup now. If you like to be out in the nature and away from traffic it is the best place. By working on the ships, i work few months on and then i'm off for few months. So this allows me to travel more. It is one of the side of my job that I really enjoy! The shipping world is an amazing one and I would love to talk about it over a beer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that being with locals while you travel is the best thing that can happen. Of course the other cool thing about CS is that it is low cost... That doesn't mean you have to be cheap and not thankful... There's so many ways
other then using money to thank someone. I still don't have my own place but i'm working on it and when it happens, i'm definetly looking foreward to host people!

Interests

I said that talking is something I like to do but I would say that I'm more a listener. Other's stories facinate me. I think listening is a quality that's being lost slowly.

Hiking and climbing, I feel like those to goes together.. Started climbing like 5 years ago and I really enjoy the physical and mental aspects of this sports. I'm not the best climber but I enjoy what I do. I like to climb inside and outside even if most of my experience is inside.

I discovered a new hobie few years ago which is pool. I like all form of pool but especialy snooker. I have my own cue which I don't bring with me when I travel. I know the snooker world a little bit and would love to play or talk about it.

I'm a sailor. So that's about it for the sailing. Merchant marine like a said before.
