CURRENT MISSION
Enjoy every moment of my life
ABOUT ME
I'm an easy going person who likes enjoying life, every aspect of life. I particularly like to discover musics, food, places. I think each day has something great to give. I find peace in nature, hapiness and joy with friends.
PHILOSOPHY
I am so lucky!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
To further describe myself I could say I left for a 6 months trip alone in Central america when I was 21. I worked as a volunteer in Costa-Rica national parks for 3 months always being the only woman in the teams and had a great experience!I built my strawbale house. I like big tools. Arts and architecture move me deeply. I am amazed by textiles from everywhere. Nature braught me countless magnificent moments. Food is everything. I have a great hability for hapiness!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I met people wich I now consider my friends! Jean-Paul in Provence was a great guide to this region. Our two personalities got along very well. Calm persons that enjoy life! Anibal in Porto made me feel at home and I hope to have the pleasure to host him at my place.
For now, I can't wait to host somebody!
Interests
I spend my free time doing some sports depending on the season: swimming in the summer, crosscountry skiing in the winter. I relax cooking and taking care of my little garden or spending a day walking around the city (Montréal).
I like world music, rock, classical music (baroque particularly, but never impose it!) jazz (sometimes great to start relaxing after a day of work)salsa and merengue (dancing is fun)
