ABOUT ME

I'm energetic and curious about my environment, no matter where I am. I'm empathetic, loyal and interested in large philosophical issues. I'm québécoise, which is a quite different from being French from France...

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I've met over 5 CSs for drinks and outings around town and hosted 4 surfers. It's been absolutely brilliant.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
When I was 19, my highschool friend and I were stranded in Paris and there was a train strike. We met this couple we figured were old (hum they were younger than I am now) and they took pity on and let us stay in their LR. I was amazed that strangers would open their home for me, way before CS ever existed. I will always remember their generosity. I suppose that's why I became a CS member in 2007.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Seen: the stars in the Israeli desert: a cluster of white stars, more white than the black of the sky. Amazing. Made you think you were one but a tiny star clustered with tons of others.
done: spelunking in Gramat with brilliant people I was interviewing for a Nat Geo series. Brilliant and very protective.
Done: sacred plants in a Santo Daime ceremony.

Enseña, aprende, comparte
