CURRENT MISSION

Live a full life.

ABOUT ME

I live with my son, for how long...donno yet, he's talking of moving out, and 3 cats, plus the cat's friends. I have few but great old friends and I easily make new ones, and all of the new ones are very dear to me. I like to go out, and stay put at home, it's a mix and match. I have a good sense of humour. Good listener. Like to talk about everything including the kitchen sink. I'm trying to replace work with travels and fullfilling my dreams.

PHILOSOPHY

Ça donne rien d'être beau si t'es pas fin.
I'm about to walk through the Compostelle just for my own good and to meet people along the road.

It's not about philosophy...but...one night, wandering on St-Denis street, just enough money to eat in my pockets...I see Yves Montand performing at the theater that night, I had to choose, do I eat or I go see him....what do you think...well my life is like that...do I go with my son to the sea or I paint the walls......well my house is full of rocks.
Although, the best part is that my friends and my son's friends come here...for us..not for the fresh paint.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I reply to the requests I receive about Montreal, and to the joyful hello.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None for the moment, but I know myself, as much as I enjoy travelling, at times I get a little bit homesick. With four months on the road ahead of me, I would be delightful to meet CS for a drink, sightseeing, and grateful to be received as a guest. It would give me the opportunity to understand and know better, and this is the mainly reason why I travel, to see the world with different perspectives.

Interests

Movie, theater, arts, small fur animals 3 are ain't enough, one day my 2 cats had kittens...for a total of 3 cats and 9 kittens....I was in the moon!!.
I collect antiques: gnomes, animals toys, lamps...etc
I bougth the other day in Apalachicola, Fl a gorgious big Kangaroo used in the fair games (pouches game).

Shopping,sewing,play games (I always loose), hanging around with my sister Carole. Play scrabble with my sisters...'cause we talk about our lives more than play.

My daily workout is opening the doors for the cats!!!!!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a fan of sub-titled movies from any country. I read mostly paperbacks novels, but I don't know why I cannot get into any of the one I bought lately. I like opera, my favorite is the incomparable Callas, Yan Perreau, Daniel Bélanger, TV on the radio, Karkwa..I like to go see `yet` unknown performers, in small theaters.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My wedding band has been blessed by Jean-Paul, I was one of the first in line....and stay put even though all the mamas were pushing me.
