I'm a sommelier by trade, have been living in Toronto for the last 3 years and am now heading to France for a year to learn the language and hopefully visit/ learn about some of the amazing wine regions.

Will be in Montpellier for 2 months taking lessons and hopefully will work at a winery during the harvest (vendage).

I love meeting new people, travelling exploring and trying new things!

I also really love food!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hoping to meet some new friends and "see how the locals live", it seems like a more genuine and more fun experience then just staying in hotels or hostels.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning French right now, that's actually why I am moving to France for a year. Mon Français n'est pas très bon maintenant.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook for you, or if you'd rather cook I'm good at doing the dishes lol.

Happy to contribute some wine and good conversation.
