About Me

I'm a French-Canadian guy (Québécois) who moved to Shanghai, China a few of months ago hoping to make it over there as a creative.
Ideally, I would love to become a full time film/TV/video director, but I keep an open mind.

I love to travel. It inspires me a lot and I crave the feeling of getting out of my comfort zone (does that make any sense?)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just created my account after a friend recommended it to me. I've heard about it years ago, but for some reason, I never considered trying it.

I love to meet new people for different backgrounds and with different stories to tell.

I'd love to host as well, but right now, my apartment in Shanghai is really tiny and couchless. I wouldn't feel comfortable inviting people to sleep on my floor. Maybe when things get better, I will get a bigger place... And a couch.

Interests

Anything art related... Bring it on!

I make videos mostly, but I also work on photography projects, drawing and I make music from time to time.

Other than that... Food! AAARRRGGHH! (Homer Simpson's voice... and face)

I also love riding my bike around and playing basketball

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Benin, in West Africa, to teach graphic design... Best experience in my life!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to take amazing pictures with your phone.

I can also tell you the best hidden spots to eat great food in Montreal and how to have a blast over there.

I can give you tricks on how to find a decent apartment in Shanghai. (seriously! I made a 7 episodes web series as I was looking for mine a few months ago)
