ABOUT ME
Origins:
Michelle - Canadian, Greek
Chloe - Canadian, Swiss, French
Chloe works as a kindergarten teacher and Michelle works in real estate, hospitality and wedding & event planning.
We are very neat and clean people, funny, and have tons of stories to share about living in Canada as well as our travel stories from around the world!
PHILOSOPHY
"Embrace every opportunity"
"Drink milk, love life"
"If you're going to regret it later, do it now"
We don't judge people, everyone is different and we enjoy being around happy people who know how to laugh and have a good time.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
We have spread the word about couchsurfing to friends here at home, couchsurfed with a number of people and hosted people at our place in Kingston!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Pretty hard to find accommodations for more than 2 people, but we appreciated those who crammed us into their tiny places just so we could have a roof over our head during our 3 month Europe backpack!
Met some amazing people by hosting and being hosted.

Teach, Learn, Share
We could help with languages (English, French or Greek), and teach you about Canadian culture (it snows a lot in winter).
We´d like to think we are experienced travelers now so we could help out with choosing hostels and such.
