About Me

CURRENT MISSION

For the first time in my life, I'll have a whole month to travel. All by myself. I'm a bit nervous, but really (REALLY) excited about it. I'm planning to visit Turkey, Bosnia, Slovenia and maybe Croatia...

ABOUT ME

Je veux me secouer les puces, me sortir de ma zone de confort. Basically, that's what I'm looking for. A human experience, discovering myself through new places and new people I'll meet. My English is good, but not as good as my French. I'm from Quebec, the French part of Canada.

I work in the television and radio industry, as a content producer, or journalist... In French, we say "recherchiste", which is kinda hard to translate.

I love to sing (jazz and bossa nova, mostly), I love to climb (not a pro, still learning) and I love to write. I'm looking to do some outdoors activities.

What more to say... I'm easy-going, not taking too much space, quite curious and smiling a lot.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been couch surfing once and it was a great experience. My host was perfect, and he showed me around a lot. Quite cool!

This time, tough, I'm not sure yet if I'm going to couch surf a lot, maybe for a few nights. But I would love to meet people, that's why I'm here.

Interests

Climbing, yoga, singing, reading, movies, theater... Arts in general. Love coffee, beer, wine and whatever great food is on the table.

Music, Movies, and Books

It changes a lot and often. But let's say for now, I'm listening to a lot of old stuff, old jazz, bossa nova and soul classics. Stuff I can sing, like old Sarah Vaugan, Dinah Washington, Ella Fitzgerald, Astrud Gilberto... And also listening to a lot of french canadian stuff you might not know about.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Falling in love <3

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn new stuff. I was a bit nerdy at school... always having good grades, always asking questions... Fortunetaly, growing up, I have learned how not to annoy people with my questions. I can control myself, don't be scared ;) But I'll be glad if you can show me anything.

And as for me, I could teach you some words in French. And I could show you how to rock climb.
