Hello!
I'm from Canada (Quebec) and just moved to Freiburg, Germany last September to start a Master's in environmental governance.
When I travel I love to spend time in nature and learn about the history and culture of a new place! I'm trying to take a slower approach to traveling, I'd much rather spend an afternoon reading in a park and wandering around different neighborhoods than visit all the "must-sees".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am doing a short trip to Italy and France during my semester break and taking this opportunity to join the CS community! I'm looking forward to meeting new people and exchange on common (or not-so-common) interests!

Interests

• cooking
• reading
• hiking
• swimming
• learning about nature
• social justice activism

Music, Movies, and Books

A few artists I listen to a lot recently: Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Khruangbin, Alice Phoebe Lou, Big Thief, Beyonce, Tash Sultana, Patti Smith, Orion Sun, etc.

Some books I've read recently and loved: Just Kids by Patti Smith, Exist West by Mohsin Hamid, Em by Kim Thuy

Teach, Learn, Share

I started doing some crochet pieces, I would love to learn more or I can teach you the (very) basics! I was a swimming teacher for a couple of years, so I can also share a few tricks :)
Pour les Français, je peux vous offrir un petit "crash course" sur le français québécois!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Would love to cook together! If you need help setting up your garden or balcony for the summer I would also love to help with that!
