PHILOSOPHY

Break the routine once in a while!

Enjoy the unexpected.

That's why I love hitchhiking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host when available and make my guests feel at home. I make them learn about Montreal's culture, food,bar, venues, etc.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed in Belgium, Denmark and Sweden. Fell in love with the concept!

Interests

Passionate about playing drums. I was in a band before, but stopped when I began university. We still have a myspace though : www.myspace.com/flamgrismo

Open-minded to every style of music, music is a way to express myself and to relax. These days, I listen to a lot of reggae-rock-ska music. It's joyful and puts me in a good mood.

I skateboard a lot. Almost every spare time I have, I spend it skateboarding!

Go out to pubs/bars with friends to cool off from the week of work/university.

I'm studying to be an electrical engineer at École de Technologie supérieure in Montréal! A lot of studying, but it's worth it!

I participate in a university project called Chinook. We build a wind turbine car that rides against the wind. I work on the electronics and automation on the car. We won the Racing Aeolus 2012 Competition in Holland and almost beat the world record of efficiency!
