About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Don't worry, be happy

ABOUT ME

I try to let instinct and desire lead me... That's why I have followed many paths in my life. The traditional 'Great expectations' are not for me I guess.

I am continually striving not to take life and especially myself too seriously.

I want to be surprised and that's the main reason why I like to travel : )

I like question myself on what I see, hear, read.

Otherwise I'm full time student of International Studies.

PHILOSOPHY

See my life through a positive lens and trying to do my best to be tolerant, respectful and mindful of the world surrounding me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

During the past years, we've been hosting several times in my apartment with my flatmates. It's an amazing way of meeting people, and transmit my love for Montreal : ) Now that I'm abroad, I created my own profile and I would like to surf !

Interests

I have too many interests but not enough passion.
I can't live without music.
Art in all kind of forms.
Food is not only a basic need, but a real pleasure.
Learning something that I had never heard of before.
