ABOUT ME

French. City Planner.
Used to live two years in Lancaster, PA.
Now, living in Montréal, QC.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it is an amazing way of learning from people all over the world, sharing experiences and becoming richer inside.

I am looking for people to hang out with and people who want to share their love/interest for their city and neighborhood. I am a City Planner, so I love discovering little urban treasures and unexpected places during my trips !

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I was in the US, I hosted many people but I didn't use CS (it was more like helping friends of friends when they travelled and needed a couch...). Now, I would like to renew it on my way on CS.
