On the road again

CURRENT MISSION

Finding a way of developing the power of teleportation.
Solo travelling across South East and East Asia, hopefully all the way up to Japan!

ABOUT ME

After 1 year and half in NZ, I'm back on the road, just my backpack, R.R (my key ring black bear from Vancouver), myself and I.

My type of humor : dad jokes and crappy puns.
I love to learn some random useless fun facts (the kind that make people think I'm smarter than I am, while I can't remember what I've had for lunch).

I can sometimes be very quiet at first (hello fellow introverts), but won't shut up if I get too comfortable (you don't want this to happen). Then I'll be quiet again because comfortable enough to share good silent moments.

I got bit once by a baby hedgehog and by a baby goat (unrelated events) but never developed superpowers related to that... Kinda disappointed.

PHILOSOPHY

"The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page" St Augustine of Hippo
"Not all those who wander are lost" JRR Tolkien
"All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us" Gandalf

"Be the change you want to see in the world" Gandhi

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One more quote: "Those who travel without meeting the other do not travel, they move." Alexandra David Neel

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think meeting local people is wonderful and essential while travelling. It makes the difference between being a simple tourist and being a traveler.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had couchsurfing experiences from France, England, Wales, Ireland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Canada, New Zealand, Aussie and Viet Nam and Taiwan. All great! (Ok that guy with the puppets was a bit strange... but no biggie)
I wish to have many other experiences while travelling in Asia (if not involving puppets).
I'm also always happy to help fellow travelers (not necessarily always on CS) finding couches to crash on, sometimes my friend's, or mine when I occasionally have one :)

Interests

Hiking is one of my favorite thing on earth (even though I'm no racer). I like the feeling of introspection it gives me.

Animal lover (yes, I'm one of those "vegetarian people"). I've worked in farms, ranches, sled dog kennel, and volunteered in wildlife rescue centers. One of my aspirations in life is to become a crazy cat lady.
When I lived in New Zealand, I worked in conservation.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
Really depends of "the mood" and vibes. I just don't want to say that I listen to "everything" because that's not true.

Movies:
Action, adventure, comedy...
The LOTR saga are my favorite movies. I also really enjoy superhero movies (MCU/DC).

Books:
Fantastic, fantasy, adventure, thriller, detective stories, suspense, comedy...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Impossible to chose only one, and I'm too indecisive for that anyway.
Life is pretty amazing itself!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some French, of course :) Always cute and funny to hear people trying to speak French, heheh.
And how to make chocolate mousse.

I like sharing my culture with others and I mostly love learning from other cultures.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Can't host at the moment, but when I will, good conversations and good food (I've been told I make decent pizza), maybe watch a movie together. I'd like to show people around wherever I'll be living, like the cool library (where only the real cool kids hang out), some funny-looking trees, that cute cafe down the road with some hottie waiters, or where not to go to avoid getting food-poisoning.
Guests will have to bring their own toothbrush, tho.
