About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I would like to learn about as much different cultures as I can and take positive from all of them.

ABOUT ME

I'm an optimist and social person. I'm really open minded, curious and I like to discover new cultures. I'm really active: I like to move, but, I'm quiet and respectful.

I have three central passions: travel, music and mutual aid. I’m also really active, I do a lot of sports and I’m always ready to do something new.

PHILOSOPHY

To be happy, think in a positive way :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host people whenever I am home in Montreal and I enjoy discovering new people while traveling :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I’ve been host by few coachsurfeurs 4 years ago and I really liked it since it’s a great way to discover local people and it’s my favorite part of traveling. Since then I prefer that way of traveling. I also host people when I am home since I have a free room. For now, I’m traveling in Hawai and I would like to meet local people to talk, hang out, exchange experiences, etc.

Interests

I like to travel, to discuss with people, to do sports (swimming, volley-ball, basket-ball, ice skating, hicking, skiing, walking, danse, etc.), to read, to learn, to play music, to cook, etc. I’m open to do almost everything since I really like to discover new activities.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My 6 month trip in india was a really wonderfull experience. I've discover so many things about this amazing culture and also about myself by traveling there alone.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've studied music for more than 20 years, so I can teach musical theory.

I'm now a french teacher for immigrants in Montreal, so I can also teach french to whoever would like to learn it.

I really like to discuss with people about any theme and exchange opinions.
