CURRENT MISSION

To travel, to discover, to meet new people, to laugh and to have fun

ABOUT ME

I was born in Montreal, Canada and my grandparents are Italian. The Italian culture is still very much alive in Montreal so I speak it quite well. I also speak French because I live in the French part of Canada. I can also get by in Spanish but have lost it over the years.

I had wanted to participate in an exchange program since high school. I worked hard these past couple of years to save money for this opportunity. I have worked with children, elderly, youth under youth protection and in many other areas (simply ask me if you want to know more!). In 2014 i finally had my chance to study abroad. I stayed almost six months in Leiden, The Netherlands.

During this time I fell in love with travel. I met people from around the world and made some many new friends. I traveled to cities I had never been to and learned about cities I had never heard of.

When traveling to a new destination, I like to visit museums, sight-see, walk around, explore shops (including grocery stores - it is so much fun to check out grocery stores because the products change so much from country to country!) and try local food.

PHILOSOPHY

If you don't laugh, you cry

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really enjoyed my last couch surfing experience. I think CS is an interesting way to meet new people from around the world. It provides a unique experience to make new friends and connections
