My husband and I are welcoming travelers from around the world to our appartment located about 20 minutes away from downtown Montreal.

I'am a social worker, born in Haiti, but who grew up in France. I've lived in different places around the world and moved back to live in Canada for the second time last year.
I currently work in a cultural langage school where I teach French and I also work part time with people who have disabilities. My schedule is not planned so I often have time to hang out with visitors.

I'am someone who enjoys travelling. My best experience travelling was when I lived in South Africa. I had many oportunities to travel around on my own in South Africa and neighbouring countries. It was, and is still, one of my best therapies. As soon as I have holidays and the opportunity, I am off to somewhere.

I'am easy going and a food lover.

My husband was born and raised on the East Coast of Canada. He is 34 years old. He works in research at a hospital here. He spent quite a bit of time in Haiti before moving back to Canada. He likes to play music, bass and guitar mostly.

We both speak English, French, and a bit of Haitian Creole.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

We want to share and offer a place to stay for people who want to travel around the world or stop by the city where we are currently living in. We want to meet new people.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Sandy:
- I bungie jumped at the Boulkran bridge in South africa. The longest Bungie jump in the world. (216m).
- All my experiences travelling that I have done until now and the people I have met on the way.
- In 2017, I went back to Haïti to live for about 9 months. It was the most important experience in my life since I left the country in 1992 as I never had the opportunity to go back.

Greg: I lived 3 years in Haïti and it was a rich experience.
