About Me

I'm a Canadian native with Lebanese and British origins. Funny mix :)

So far I traveled over 25 country and wish to say one day that I traveled the world!

The best way to describe me is : active traveler, 100% foodie, social, friendly who love to laugh and a trustworthy person. I love new adventures, meet new people, have a drink and share stories.

I'm a project director in finance and technology but I recently took my TESOL certification to pursue my goal, combine work and travel on a long term. I'm traveling while "teach English or French as a second language abroad".

I believe the first question that is coming to your head... why her/why me? See below at the section "what i have to offer to my host".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why couchsurfing?

I want to live the local culture, lifestyle and food while traveling to new countries, cities and villages. Have a local eye. I think couchsurfing is a great way to experience that.

In all my trips, I experienced hotel, hostel, airbnb, home away, camping and more type of hosting. But this time it's different, I'm traveling for a longer period of time. I traveled over 20 countries so far and wish one day to say I did them all.

Interests

Traveling around the world, visiting new countries, road trip around different area.
All summer and winter outdoors activities. I'm a yes person so even if I never did it, I'll try it!
Looking to eat or have a drink, we're a great match! I'm a 100% foodie!
Beach, mountains and urban lover.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Getting to the airport, pick a destination and flight out to an unknown country. Otherwise, I have a great story for each of my trip! Would be hard to pick one :) .

Teach, Learn, Share

TESOL certification, i can teach English or French as a second language.
Sharing stories and tips about my professional experience from a Canadian perspective.
Share stories about traveling, culture and all king of topics around a drink and meal!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I believe the first question that is coming to your head... why her/why me?

The answer will be simple. I will take care of your place like it was mine. Keep it clean and assure to be quite. I'll be most of the time outside enjoying the beach, outdoors activities and sightseeing. If you see me around and have no plans, I'll be happy to share a meal and glass of wine or drinks, sharing some stories, talking about everything and nothing. I can also help with some of the housing task, it's the least I can do!

- cooking
- cleaning
- gardening
- teaching French or English
- hiking guide and outdoors activities partner
- help with your business plan or process optimization
- looking for someone to help you with a specific task, let me know and we'll see if I can help you!

These are few of the reasons why I hope you will consider me as a guest. :)
