About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meeting new people.

ABOUT ME

I'm a dynamic woman, passionate and quick-witted who like to learn, to move, to play and to meet new people. I really enjoy travelling, especially Latin America where I've been 4 times. I'm a genuine, many-faceted person : I reveal my consciencious side mostly in my work, but absurd jokes and good food also are part of my daily life. To chase the stress away I run a few days a week on the Abraham Plains. To get in touch with my zen core, it's outdoor that I go : backpacking, camping, walking, biking, swimming, skiing or skiting. I also enjoy going out every now and then, share a drink on Grande Allée and dance a little bit of salsa at Le Boudoir.

PHILOSOPHY

A parable tells of a Buddhist monk walking along a beach strewn with thousands of starfish that had washed onto shore during a storm. When he picks one up and throws it back into the sea to live, the disciple asks, "Why did you do that ? What difference can it possibly make ?" The monk replies, "For that starfish, it makes all the difference in the world."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While traveling in the last years, I met incredible people who were as welcoming as if I was part of their familiy. They made my feel at home while living in their country for a few months. I'd like to give back to other people what I received with such generosity.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm a beginner on CouchSurfing, but friends of mine had great experiences hosting and surfing.

Interests

Running, backpacking, reading, dancing... I also really like to work as a family doctor.
