Overview
About Me
Travelling, it's our life!! We are addicted to live different experiences, to see different places, to live in an other culture and especially, to meet other people. That's why we absolutly LOVE CS. We coudn't imagine travelling and do not meet people from the country we are travelling in. The first thing we do when we are in a new place, is to go in a café and look how the people live.....and playing scrabble at the same time with our "homemade" boardgame made in Australia during our world trip in 2014.
Beside travelling, the rest of the year, we grow our vegetables in our courtyard and we enjoy doing it! It takes a lot of time but we love to see seeds become what we eat everyday. Our ultimate goal is to be self sufficient from the supermarket. Alex and I work part time to have time for our garden.
The rest of the time, we enjoy life and take it easy. We like simple thing like have a coffee in a terrace, read a good book or simply stay at home and talking about....our next trip!! :P
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
We started to do couchsurfing at the beginning of our trip in May 2013 in France. Our impressions? We just loved it!!! Because of CS, we have a lot of friends around the world and we are still in touch with lot of them. We already host some of them back, once we were back in Canada. During our trip, we were always saying that when we will be back home, we will give back all that kindess that we received by welcoming Couchsurfers at our home. That way we will still be travelling with their own travel stories.
