About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet different people and broaden my horizons

ABOUT ME

I love meeting people from all over the world and learning about their cultures and their countries. I love telling people all about Montreal and where to visit.
I often hike or ski on weekends. I socialize with various groups as well. Have recently started a relationship so see my boyfriend most weekends as he lives in Vermont.
Tend to be quiet but warm up easily to people and enjoy chatting with them and getting to know them.
I like to keep busy and participate in various activities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just became a member so am new to this. Once I have some experiences will update my answer to this question.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Basically whenever I travel I meet other travellers in youth hostels, hotels, trains, or while site seeing. Have not stayed with anyone or have hosted anybody. Belong to other travel sites and have met people for dinner or have shown them around Montreal.

Interests

Travelling (else I would not be here), hiking, skiing (both cross country and downhill), music, theatre, movies, taking walks, social activities, eating in ethnic restaurants.
