About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Mastering the elements in California.

ABOUT ME

Hi, I've lived a bit all over the place, Fontainebleau, France; Austin and Houston, Texas; Edmonton, Alberta; I studied in Ottawa, and worked in Montreal, currently trying to live the American Dream. I love drawing, sketching and thinking about how design can effect our society. I'm a bit French, a bit American, some more German but, now, mostly Canadian. I'm a bit shy around people that I don't know and large crowds, but if I enjoy being with friends and family.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My (ex)girlfriend and I have participated in the couch surfing project before. We went to New York and got to stay with a really nice woman in upper Manhattan. However now, I'm travelling on my own now, and so I've created my own profile.

As soon as I settle down, my couch will be available, but I don't even have a couch right now! Even less a permanent home!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I truly believe CouchSurfing is one of the greatest things created by humankind. So far, my couple CS experience have been fantastic, I am always moved by the sincerity and generosity of people.
