We recently moved to Ottawa after returning home from a 14 month trip around the world. During our trip, we discovered Couchsurfing and were instantly hooked. We stayed with so many wonderful people who welcomed us into their homes and made our trip truly memorable.

Now that we are back in Canada, we want to open our apartment to travellers, learn about different cultures, and pay it forward for all the hospitality that we received. We are an open minded and caring couple who want to make sure you that have a great time in Ottawa!

Our apartment is walking distance from downtown, right beside bike trails that go across the city, and close to all the major transportation methods.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

We are on Couchsurfing to meet interesting people, learn about other cultures and different ways of living. We are looking to have authentic experiences and conversations with great people!
