About Me

CURRENT MISSION

avoid routine!

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy going person who likes to feel alive by not staying inactive. There's a million of things I'd like to do before being and old person! I enjoy being a student so I get time to party with my friends and to have some nice hiking/biking trips! I always have a smile on my face and I love to laugh... I'm also good at making people around me laughing :)

I've completed my degree in Water Ressource Engineering in Québec city. I'm currently doing my Master in Urbain Hydrology. Last year, I did a round-the-world trip with my boyfriend. Taking a year off to travel was the best idea I had of my life!

I'm super friendly, simple, polite and funny.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is good

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I wish to meet friendly people to host me while I'll be traveling all around. I want to share experiences, opinions and activities.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been surfing on several couches in Boston, New-York, Vancouver, Switzerland, Spain, Turkey and New-Zealand. I met so many awesome people with CouchSurfing and I now I understand why this is not just about a way to sleep for free but so much more... It's all about meeting local people and being open-minded to live new experiences!

Interests

Running, road biking, hiking, soccer, cross-country skiing, adventure, travel, friends, party, travel, board game, movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dive in the Caribbean Sea exploring the second largest coral wall in the world.
Run a full marathon.
Learn how to ride an elephant
Bungee jump 134m (ouuuaa)

Teach, Learn, Share

Couchsurfing is my way to open my mind and to be constantly reminded that there's a world out there to discover again and again! It's my way to help (when I host) and to make new friend from everywhere around the world = PRICELESS!
I also wish, one day, to be perfectly bilingual so I love to be immersed in an english speaking environment and have several discussions with people.
