About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore. Dream. Discover. Travel. Be Happy.

ABOUT ME

I€™d describe myself as an open-minded and outgoing person who likes to enjoy life and discover other countries and cultures!

Ive stop my studies to travel nearly 18 months around the world. Iâve been traveling from South America to Europe and around, then Australia and Asia. But there€™s still so much to see around this beautiful world. Now, as a university student in Business Administration from Montreal, I’m doing a student exchange in Brazil for 6 months.
From my travels and my family, I’m now fluently speaking French, English and Spanish. Now it’s time for me to learn more about the Brazilian Portuguese and the warm South-American vibe !

PHILOSOPHY

Be who you are, love yourself, smile.. and enjoy life ! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have CouchSurfed in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, England and Croatia !
I've loved all of my past experiences with CouchSurfing, it's a great way to connect with the people and the places where you are going. I think we can learn so much more in this way than simply going to a cheap hostel. It's a different and beautiful way to travel !

Interests

I love other cultures, having some family in Venezuela and Spain, I go and visit them every year. I believe this opened my mind to the world ! As well as helping me learn spanish :)

..The more I travel, the more I want to travel and see every part of this world !

I also love what I am actually studying in my Business Administration bachelor degree, I'd like to specialized mysefl in Marketing and International Commerce.
