Hi everyone!

My name is Frederique and I'm from Quebec City, Canada. I'm actually studying journalism at the Training Center for Journalists in Paris (CFJ) and I sometimes take advantage of my weekends to travel around France.

I would say I'm an easy-going and open minded person who likes to discover new places and to meet people. I like to learn about new cultures, so tasting traditional meals, going to cultural events or holidays, learning some expressions and words in different languages are all things I love to do!

I simply want to live the local lifestyle with my hosts and chilling with them is also something I enjoy doing.

I like to sing and I wish I played guitar (I'm learning it!).

Sports and cooking are other hobbies I practice a lot and that I'm always willing to do with my hosts!

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing is the perfect way to visit a country, to know more about its culture and to meet locals with whom I can experience the local lifestyle!

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I've already been at less than 5 meters from two blue whales that were lost in a bay with their baby...I think it's the biggest thing I've ever seen and surely one of these moments I felt really small and vulnerable in my life, that was incredible!

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

I will share my culture with my hosts with pleasure and I'm expecting to know more about their own too. I like to learn new things so cooking local recipes or exploring the place with my hosts would be a pleasure!
Talking with them about anything, sharing funny moments and adventures that we've experienced and just chilling is another thing I like to do :)
