CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life and jump on every opportunity when I find one!

ABOUT ME

An open mind and a lot of interest about what other people are doing. More interested in people than museum! Like to share expertise and experience with others.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short so there is no reason to loose my time watching television. It is better to wake up early in the morning in order to enjoy the entire day,

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had an host not too long ago. Even if I live in a rural area, about 45 kilometers east from Montreal, she stayed at my place and I drove her to Montreal for visiting the city. It was a positive experience. We had the chance to talk a lot about our own life experiences. I work from home, but about 4-5 times a year I participate to an exhibition and I had one the week end that Marianna came to stay. Unfortunately, I did not had the chance to spend a lot of time to show her the nature in my area. Maybe next time!
Ce fut une expérience très positive que de recevoir une "couch surfeuse". Même si j'habite à 45 kilomètres à l'est de Montréal, elle est restée et je suis allé la reconduire à Montréal afin qu'elle puisse visiter la ville. Je n'ai malheureusement pas eu l'opportunité de lui faire visiter ma région car je participais à une exposition durant la fin de semaine ou elle est venue.
