Hi friends!
I'm Ronnie, 24 years old. I've been traveling a lot since the last years. I've visited 16 countries and with different ways (backpack with plane, bus or hitchhike, and I've traveled by bicycle). I love to live really simply and being conscious of the repercussions of my acts. I love ecology (that's why I've traveled 9 months in bicycle), philosophy, camping, music (I play guitar and sing), yoga, anthropology and many other things!! I like to learn about artisanat or music when I travel. My last trip in Mexico I've learned how to do macrame and I've started to sell some now. I believe that learning is the key to stay young.

I don't like to travel just a few weeks. Normally when I leave, I don't come back before months, to be really sure I don't see the Quebec winter. I never do any kind of touristic activity, i prefer to just go as a "vagabond" and jump on opportunities that show up.

But now that I came back, it's my turn to offer a place to sleep again! I have one couch and a lot of place so if you are more than one person you need to bring your mattress. I won't really make you a tour of the city but I can introduce you to my friends and make you discover the best authentik spots in the city, where there is no tourists. But don't expect me to be a guide, because as I said, I don't like touristic activities, and I'm more of a friend :)

If you want to meet me, write me a message and tell me about you!
I receive a lot of messages every day so please take a moment to describe yourself so I can have an idea of who you are. I want to know about the places you've traveled before, the music you like or any kind of interest you have :)

My roommates are my boyfriend and my good friend Rachel. My boyfriend is Brian, an American (from Tenessee) that I've met in Quebec city who is a musician street performer and traveler. My other roommate Rachel is a student at University in teachings of primary school and also a traveler. Like Brian, she also plays the guitar and sings really well!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done a bicycle trip from farm to farm in Europe in August 26th. We did bicycle 3 months in France and Spain and we did 3 months of bicycle in Morrocco to pass the winter. In february we took the plane to Turkey. Then we had ride by bicycle until France again. Our trip took us 9 months. We were usually doing camping every night by planting our tent anywhere, but sometimes we would stop in the cities and using couch surfing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you where are the busking spots in Quebec city since my boyfriend is a professional street performer.
I can teach you how to cook vegan, or we can play music! I have a guitar, some maracas, some spoons, a cazoo and we can sing. Also, we can share lots of stories, and talk about philosophy or art or politics or, my favorite, Trips!! :)
