CURRENT MISSION

... carpe diem...

ABOUT ME

I am pretty quiet and low key... but enjoy to talk to anyone about anything! I love to travel, and meet people along the way. I am not a city guy, I instead love the peace & quiet of the nature.
When I was 18, I went to New-Zealand... and since then, things have been happening for me! I love to think, and think for myself... I also like to research things for myself and challenge the status quo, and question things.

PHILOSOPHY

Whatever you give to others... you essentially give to yourself!
"The Highest Thought is always that thought which contains joy. The Clearest Words are
those words which contain truth. The Grandest Feeling is that feeling which you call love.
Joy, truth, love.
These three are interchangeable, and one always leads to the other. It matters not in which
order they are placed." Neale Donald Walsch, CWG.
I live my life following my gut. I have always told people that the real world is what you make it.
Sometimes you have to give up "great" to find "amazing"!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can update this part and say that I now have experience surfing and hosting, and am loving it!! ... I just hope to meet people and show them around my part of the world!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couch surfed in Australia, NZ, Taiwan, US, Canada and Colombia... and I absolutely love it! I have had some amazing hosts, and I actually got to experience places with a local perspective. I have also hosted great Couch Surfers... and can't wait to have more!

Interests

Travel, rock climbing, farming, meeting people, cooking, stargazing, mountain biking, road trips, hiking, eating fish and chips in NZ... yeah, you guys know how I feel about those NZ fish & chips, eating anything in Taiwan! Plane rides, live hockey games, playing pond hockey, live music, camping... to have that butterfly feeling inside my stomach, that experience that money will never be able to buy!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Riding over 1000km of New Zealand country roads on the back of a Ducati 900 street bike. Road trip from Moncton, NB to California in 5 days. Swimming in an icy cold lake (Lago 69) at 4600m in Peru!

Actually... I see so many amazing people and places every single day, at home and abroad... we just tend to take probably the most amazing things in life for granted sometimes.

Teach, Learn, Share

... as one of my favorite quote goes "Everyone you meet in life can teach you something... if you give them a chance..." so that is what I try to do as much as I can!
- I can teach about the Acadian people
- I can teach about farming
- I can explain digital mapping
- I can share my travel experiences
- I hope to hear travel and life stories
- I also hope to learn from my guests!!
