Overview
About Me
Hi,
I am from Québec and my first language is french. I speak english pretty well but sorry if I make mistakes! ;)
I am student in Interior Design! I have my degree and planning on doing my masters next year. I want to design restaurants in a sustainable way. Our planet needs some help and I will do what I can to help it through my work.
I am currently backpacking through Europe and Australia so I can't host anyone at the moment. I love the idea of couchsurfing. Even if it was through hostel world, I've been hosted several times at strangers place and everyone was lovely and nice.
I love sharing travel stories. I've got several of my own since I backpacked solo twice and for several months. The unexpected stories are the best ones. I love listening to others' too.
Mmmm... what else... I am 27, I have a tattooed arm, I love nature but city too, I think family is the most wonderful things and I LOOOVE food and cooking too! Oh! And I am a waitress, which is how I got the money to travel! ;)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on couchsurfing because the most beautiful gifts of travels is meeting people and make friends all around the world. Sharing knowledges, showing our own city, etc.
Interests
I love food and cooking probably better. I want to discover the world's flavors, even if it means gaining a couple of kilos! Discovering local food is the best way to travel!
I am not perfect but I try to be as green as possible with all kind of small actions that might not change the world but makes me feel better about it.
Something I also like to taste is different kinds of craft beers. I am a stout and/or smoky beer lover!
I like to be active. Going out for a run in the sunny weather, yoga, crossfit, walks, hikes, etc. But I am not good at team sports lol...
I love summer. I hate cold and winter. I won't probably spend my life in Canada.
I probably love staying home and relax (movies, board games, cooking, etc.) as much as going out (party, movies, going out with friends, etc.). It's a kind of balance. Just like I love my routine, cooking, being home, eating healthy as much as I like traveling, eating out, adventures, etc.

Music, Movies, and Books
I am not fussy. I listen to what people make me listen to.
For the movies, my taste can go from La vita e bella, to Pulp Fiction, to animated movies, to stupid comedies. I just don't like chick flicks.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Traveling solo is the most incredible thing I've done so far. I loved it so much that I decided to do it again. Here I am.
I met an Australian guy and decided to postpone my ticket back! It's crazy, we don't really know each other but yeah! I'm going to Australia! Let's hope it works out!
When I knew I was going to South America, I started learning Spanish with books. I can handle a small conversation. So.. yeah! I'm pretty proud of it.
