Hi guys! My name is Joanie I am a 29 years old woman and my 10 years old son is Cohen-Lieonel. I am a Canadian born and raised in the province of Quebec. I am fluent in French, English and Spanish. I like hearing new stories, cook food, and I am very open minded person in general. I like to know and try new things and laugh a lot.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing because I had such great experiences with couchsurfing and backpacking. back ion 2016 and I want to do it again!! I think this is the best way to connect with people all over the world. Creating connections and memories, learning about other culture, other mind, other ways of seeing life, for me this is what CS is all about.

Hopefully my son Cohen and I will have time to chat and do activities with our host. I understand that we all work and we have our life but I will be looking forward to our chat and to learn about you and your surrendings. My son Cohen is also very social and currious and love to chat!!
