Overview
About Me
Tout mon profil est en anglais et je suis trop paresseuse pour le traduire! Ma langue maternelle est le français, que dis-je, le québécois! Pi si tu veux apprendre à me connaître et que tu parles pas anglais... allons boire un thé ou un kombucha!! Au plaisir de t'héberger :)
I'm happily growing younger everyday! I am vegan, free of booze and drugs! Currently finishing my bachelor degree in Visual Arts, I'll head towards Art Therapy studies afterwards.
I live my life as if I was in a video game; every step being a challenge, collecting the rewards, hearing the advices of the people that cross my path, enjoying the bonuses along the way! I mostly see life in a funny and positive way, I'm overly optimistic for the future of humanity, the planet and the animals. Apart from some depressive episodes, 2 to 5 times a day, I'm mostly smiling, laughing, goofing around.
I'll talk to strangers like they were my own friends, and 'till this day my best friend sometimes questions me :
"-You know that person?
-Not at all, I've just met them!"
Artistically speaking, I'm very much into performance art, I find ways of sharing personal reflections about the world and ourselves, through humour and messiness! I also LOVE writing, dancing, acting, analog photography and making videos.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on Couchsurfing because it's the best human experiences I've had in my life!! I have been traveling with this website for more than 10 years now! It changed my way of traveling and of perceiving the very act of giving. Now I'm navigating between hosting when I have a place of my own -and surfing when I travel.
Interests
I am interested in human beings -from how they think to what they do- in an almost obsessive way (Sophie Calle style). But I have also a profound interest for plants, cold wind, snow, the way my cats stare at me, the moon, the dust, and everything in between.
Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Getting up every morning is my biggest success!
I had to re-learn everything (from cooking to walking to talking with people!) after a depression few years ago. It was the best teaching I received so far:
we should be proud of everything we accomplish everyday.
Teach, Learn, Share
Just by being ourselves, we can teach so much. ♥
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share a good laugh, conversations, life experience, thoughts, walks...
I would LOVE to spend time with children (I can even babysit if needed).
I love cooking so much, I'm always up for it.
I can also take pictures if needed for a certain purpose; tell me in advance; I'll bring the right camera!
I'm not the party couchsurfer at all!
I'd rather get up with the sunrise and do yoga early morning.
But I can also stay up late if I'm having a blast and I'd do anything to dance till the morning.
