ABOUT ME

Je ne cache pas mes défauts : j'oublie tout le temps, chu ben nerveux, je parle beaucoup pis mon accent c'est pas de la France. Mais ce dernier, là, c'est pas un défaut !

MAIS AUSSI…
J'écoute bien les autres.
J'ai récemment commencé à méditer, et j'aimerai vraiment savoir plus sur la médecine externe.
Depuis 5 ans, je cuisine 100 % végane.
Depuis une décennie, j'étudie la langue française, tout particulièrement le français à nous autres en Amérique.

Kreyòl pa mwen pa pi mal! Nan inivèsite m bò isi a yo te genyen kou kreyòl ayisien m te swivi, ak kounye a m ta renmen remesye kominote ayisyen an an ebeje moun ki anvwayaj pandan en, de oubyen twa, nwi. M rete ak 3 lòt moun.

All my party stories rolled into one: I fell in love with the Québécois French radio and a secret boyfriend on the train en route to my all-boys Catholic military school in New York City. Then I learned some Haitian Creole, Wolof, and Irish, lived in Senegal for a year and became a vegan cook in New Orleans.

I like talking (and listening!) about justice, culture, and gender.

I love bikes! I bike everywhere at home, and even a broken neck did not deter me from getting back on the thing, more cautiously, again.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love sharing, I love hosting, and I love free things!

I've done hostels and couchsurfing, and my experiences couchsurfing have been much more meaningful.

MUSIC: trad, folk, métal, rap kéb, rock progressif

My favorite movie is The Room. If you've seen it, it should be yours, too.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn Haitian (Kreyòl), Irish and Wolof, improve my jamming ability, keep my joke repertoire up to date, and hear other perspectives on life. I'm a good talker and getting better at listening. I've always learned most by talking to people.

My skills to share:
-How to start a compost pile
-How to vegan
-music (not good but love to jam)
-I speak the french pretty good.
-travel advice for Dakar, New Orleans, New York, and NJ

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook vegan food for you or with you!
