About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make the world my home and beat claustrophobia! :)

ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm a researcher, I study animal behavior (you might be one of my subjects ;). Travel-wise, I started my life as a traveler with a 96 days camping/bicycle trip that brought me all across Canada and on west coast of U.S... Work makes me travel too, I was doing research on plants in Argentina for a while and worked in a bunch of places in North America. I'm so motivated by everything that sometimes I think it makes my body temperature raise... woufh...

Even though I love animals, I am a humanist. That means I believe in people, I believe people can change things, like themselves... Or the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If I could get out of the woods sometimes, I would love to meet more people through CS

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I always used warmshowers.org or stealth camping, so that's why I have limited experience with CS

Interests

Traveling, ice climbing, surf, ski, music and over all... Harmonica! I like to listen to and to tell stories... Travel stories are so incredible sometimes - like that time this naked guy tried to hug a bear...

Music, Movies, and Books

I like any kind of music as long as there is harmonica in it... or something that sounds good. I had a radio show before and I discovered alot of non-commercial music at that time. I love to dig through music libraries to find original stuff. Sometimes, I enjoy a good old superhero movie, even if it's silly. I probably read more books than most literate people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To cross Canada with a bicycle, climb Mt.Kilimanjaro, to make a new friend everyday during one month. Sit down and watch people behave, I call it "watching television". When I was in Argentina, I danced in a tango show. And overall... I endured myself for so long... haha!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share a pinch of stuffs: music, languages, things about nature, human behaviour, laughing, cooking, tango, bike fixing (even how to repair a flat tire with a 5$ bill). I usually fly for cheap, I can probably give you advice on that!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to bring a gift to my hosts and spend time with them to see how they live, their aspirations, their dreams, their fears...

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Hong Kong, Macao, Malawi, Paraguay, Tanzania, United States, Zambia, Zimbabwe

Countries I’ve Lived In

Argentina, Canada
