Hello!!!

I am a student; currently in Istanbul for an exchange but i live in Canada. This is my first time using Couchsurfer so i apologize for my lack of references.

I am mostly looking for accomodations throughout my travels but as soon as i am done with my studies, i will be ready to welcome guests into my home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking for safe couchsurfers with whom i can stay for a few days during my travels around Europe.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn a bit more Spanish or Italian; woud love to learn more about arts whether its painting, drawing, sculpting.

I can teach how to cook and would love to share Québec's love of poutine. Have you ever had it? No? Then you will love it! My love for Haitian food is unmatchable, so of course i would love to share that.

I can share my recipes and my cooking skills; my dance moves, lol; a listening ear; my natural remedies (i'm a bit of hippie); and my love for indian chai tea and all things organic.

I would also love to share my recipes for homemade body products: shampoo, scrubs, deep conditionner for hair.
