I have been an expat since 2008, so cultural exchange is for me a way of life. I love meeting people from everywhere, listening to their travel stories, learning about their culture, sharing tips. After living in Spain for 8 years, I moved to Canada 3 years ago. I spend my summers in the beautiful Gaspé Peninsula and my winters in Montreal, working in 2 really cool hostels, where I meet other travelers every day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling as well as sharing with people the secrets of the beautiful city I live in. I also love to learn about people's life and travel experience, this is a great source of inspiration. My experiences as a host and as a guest were all great!

Interests

My first interest : travelling, although it's not always easy with a full time job. I also love learning foreign languages, for me a language is the easiest way to its its culture.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have very eclectic tastes in music but my preference goes to rock all the way from rock'n'roll to metal.
I am not a movie addict but i always try to watch movies in their original version.
I love reading, a bit of everything from classics to thrillers and would appreciate any recommendation on good authors I don't know.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Australia I've snorkelled on the Great Barrier Reef, that was pretty stunning. In Canada, I've watched the fireworks over the Niagara Falls, a really amazing view!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: If you want to learn French, English or Spanish, you're in the right place! From the basics to get around in a foreign country to having a full conversation, I'm here to help.

Learn: I'd love to get some help with my German as it's getting a bit rusty, or with Portuguese. I'd also like to get introduced to yoga, meditation, photography and much more things.

Share: We can share good moments around a beer or a glass of wine, talking about our travel experiences, cooking typical dishes...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share tips and stories about the city and the country I live in, as well as any places I've been to. I can also help you practice any of the languages I speak. And I'm always happy to cook dinner or invite you for a drink out!
