ABOUT ME
I believe I'm pleasant to be with. I have fantastic friends and I wish that I share some of the qualities those great people. I'm a smiling girl, who loves life and its pleasures. I enjoy getting to know people through their stories and passion. In exchange, I think I'm a good storyteller.
The sensitive girl than I am wants happiness for her close friends. Oh! And I'm a girl who likes to laugh and to make life easy!!
PHILOSOPHY
If you can't duck it, fuck it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Since three years I've hosted many couchsurfers from around the world. It was a rewarding experience. I met amazing people whi touch me deeply.
I did too couchsurfing, in Mexico for example, but with my boyfriend account. Now, I want to go to Colombia for my first trip alone so I setting my own profil.
I like couchsurfing to meet people outside of the touristy way. Some of people met by couchsurfing come back periodically in our house. And that is the most beautiful history of couchsurfing...
Interests
My two kids are the principal joys of my life. Their smile, laughter and love are basicly an excellent reason to get up. I'm a passionate person and I live each moment intensely. My hyperactive side pushes me to have a lot of projects, a way not to miss out on anything. At the opposite, I have a good talent too to lay back and do nothing.
The most important is to keep all facets of my personality in balance.
- flying
- socializing
- emergency services
- history
Music, Movies, and Books
At the moment, I listen The National. Often.
In general, I'm great fan of Radiohead, Jean Leloup, Serge Gainsbourg, Jacques Brel, The Stars, Beck, Beirut, Björk, Nina Simones, Richard Desjardins, Arcade Fire and many more.
As for the literature, I like Philippe Claudel (L'enquête, Le Rapport Brodeck), Réjean Ducharme (L'avalée des avalés), Emile Ajar (La vie devant soi), Guy Lalancette (His complete work!) and a new author in my life, Louis Calaferte (Requiem des innnocents).
To be honest, I'm not a movie buff. A prophet (Jacques Audiar) was one of the most powerful movie I have seen recently.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The birth of my second child was an memorable event in my life. This is one of the must beautiful stories I lived. This no-plan birth (I gave birth alone with my boyfriend) left me changed. I know now how powerful I am.
In another unrelated kind of event, I was a firefighter a couple of years ago. Flying to work in an helicopter in the great North every morning was a fantastic trip. I was able to discover unexplored territory. Facinating and unreal! I could say it is probably what motivated me to go out and see the world.
