I long for freedom and adventures. I'm a Montrealer(french-canadian and morrocan) studying in biology, and as soon as the snow melts, I'm almost always on my bicycle. Open minded, i like to meet new people, to discuss with them and to learn new things. I lived in Madrid for the last 5 months, studying there and traveling on week ends and now, it's traveling time all the time!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To discover the local point of view, meet new people and share adventures! I think the place you go to are only as amazing as the people you meet and that's why I want to couchsurf! Also, I'm really pationate about language learning and i discovering other people's culture through the language they speak!

Interests

I have a profesional obsesion, i tend to start explaining biology stuff in context that appear as out of the blue, but that actually makes sense when you think about it! If you're not interested, you just have to bring me back to the main point of the conversation because i get really pationate! Sometimes, i pay more attention to the trees and the plants then to the actual thing i'm visiting, like a castle or something.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Also doing research work on stem cells for the whole summer
But really, i think happiness are in those little moments, like siting in a train station watching the trains passing, listening to the rain hiting your window while you're drinking a coffe inside or just sharing a confortable silence after a good conversation or something of the like.
