About Me

CURRENT MISSION

The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page. ~St. Augustine

ABOUT ME

I have been traveling and working around the world for many years but I have finally settled to build my own family. I am now the proud dad of 4 amazing kids and just about to travel to NYC with my oldest one.

PHILOSOPHY

« Je ne croirai pas que je n’aie pas à m’occuper de ce qui arrive loin d’ici.
Je veux croire que le monde entier est ma maison, que l’action modeste,
et l’amour aux mains nues, contribuent à bâtir la paix sur terre. »

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I happened to meet awesome CSers all along my travelings. Things got much calmer since I settled in Victoriaville - somewhere between Montreal and Quebec city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met some CSers in France, Ireland, Brasil, Poland, Mexico, etc. Each person I met through this site made me learn and/or experience something new. To me, it is simply the best way to travel. I am back on it getting ready to take my 14 year old daughter to NYC - so she can experience one of the greatest places on earth and feel the CS vibe.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: L'auberge espagnole, Lost in translation, The fountain, Juno, Napoleon Dynamite, Once, Blood Diamond, The Great Debaters, Slumdog millionnaire, As it is in heaven, Jeux d'enfants, etc.
Books: Le Petit Prince (in every language)
Music: Jazz
