We are currently living in Winnipeg, Manitoba and work on 'The Canadian' the passenger train that crosses Canada from East to West. So, although we are not travelling at the moment our job takes us all over Canada.

We traveled for 11 months in 2015 - 2016 and again for 5 months this past winter. We love meeting locals and consider ourselves foodies since we do our best to try everything a country has to offer! Staying put is tough for us, we love being on the move, visiting new places and meeting new people is what we do!

Alain loves coffee and finding new and exciting coffee shops! I also love the craft beer scene that has exploded in the last 10 years, since it's brought back creativity to the space. I practice gymnastic strength training, focused stretching and hand balancing as a hobby but with an aim to specialize and make it a career!

Fitness, food and healthy living are priorities for both of us and we try to make it apparent in the way we live our lives!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We want to have a different travel experience and truly mingle with the locals, we are really curious about cultures we don't know :)

We also love the idea of couch surfing, it encourages sharing, trusting and a sense of community!
