CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world with the woman I love (Tracy Steiner), and to make connections with the people that inhabit it.

ABOUT ME

I live in Montreal, Canada. My favourite things in life are family, friends, music and traveling. My first experience of independent travel was when I was 14 years old and I was on a school trip to France. From that time on I was hooked! I see traveling as more of an education than a vacation. My goal in life is to visit and experience as many countries and cultures as I can before I die.

I consider myself easygoing and pretty funny, although you couldn't really tell from my writing style. I'm not very picky, have an open mind and am always open to try new things . I'm a good friend to have because I'm probably the most punctual person you will ever meet. I hate lying and I never go against my word.

ABOUT TRACY

Tracy has been backpacking to far off lands before the advent of smart phones, digital photography and wifi. Her love of adventure and wanderlust brought us together and continues to bring us closer day by day. She has interesting stories of surviving shark attacks in Malaysia, inadvertently snuggling with a lion in Kenya and living in Saudi Arabia just for kicks.

PHILOSOPHY

I think it can be summed up as carpe diem. Although cliche I know, I really do think it speaks volumes about how we want to live our life together. We work to live and not vice versa. We would like to make an impression on everyone we meet and hope that the people we meet have the same impact on us.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In 2007, I had stayed at the homes of 3 guys I had met while traveling in Europe the year before. Although my friend and I had only hung out with them for a few days, or in certain cases, a few hours the year before, they allowed us to crash at their places without hesitation. The fact that they allowed us to stay with them for more than just a day and the ridiculous hospitality we received, forged an amazing friendship. To this day we still keep in touch and have had them stay at our place when they visited our city. It blew my mind to find out that there is a community (CS) that utilizes this concept and allows people from all over the world to meet and have similar experiences to the one I had a few years ago.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Ran with the bulls in Spain, cage-dove with great white sharks, and hand-fed wild hyenas among other things.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Tracy and I are very respectful, tidy, quiet (when we need to be), and are extremely open to new cultures and ideas. We love a great conversation and look forward to meeting people from all walks of life.
