ABOUT ME

Independent, cheerful, social and a bit crazy as well. Just love discovering the world and what it has to offer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love meeting new people, and for me it is the best way to discover a culture with more depth. In the same idea, I would love eventually to be able to receive couchsurfers at my own place, which is not possible for the moment.

Interests

I love to travel, solo or with people. For me it is a way to explore interesting cultures and different landscapes, and to let them resonate within myself. There is something unique in every place, every person, every moment. Travel allows life to slow down, and help me take everything in.

The arts do the same for me. Outdoors helps me connect with nature and with myself. It helps me stay fit and challenge myself.

And to pay for those flight tickets, I am a social worker, currently working with homeless men in Montreal.
