About Me

Hi folks,
I am a 26 year-old, life-loving, individual. I am currently living with my girlfriend in Whitehorse YT, where I am teaching at a french immersion elementary school. I love meeting new people, exploring the great outdoors, and learning new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that the most authentic way to visit a place is to spend time with it's inhabitants. Couch surfing is obviously affordable, but more importantly, it gives you an instant connexion with welcoming people who also share a passion for travel.

Interests

The french language and sciences in general.
Playing guitar and listening to music.
Mountain biking and exploring the great outdoors.
Hockey, snowboarding, and most other sports,
Meeting new people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 23, I went as a beginner to a 5-week french immersion camp where I was no longer allowed to speak english. As a personal challenge, I used nothing but my limited, but growing, understanding of the french language. I continued this way for two more years, transferring all of my studies to a french university and I now work as a professor with the same program sharing my own passion for the language.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I think as a couch surfer, I can share my excitement to be in a new place and my interest in exploring. I can certainly share some laughs, a case of beer, and am happy to do some cooking.
