CURRENT MISSION

I'm new to Couch Surfing. I've almost always traveled for work. It's my first real time traveling for fun and to relax. I'm currently traveling on US East Coast.

ABOUT ME

I'm dedicated to social justice and solidarity and believe we can achieve a better world if everyone puts his/her own efforts too.

I think I am a woman of the Americas, my past and recent experiences have turned me into a mix of Quebec (French Canadian) joie de vivre, American humor, and Mexican jokes.
