ABOUT ME

We used to live in Malawi from 2010-2012; that's how we were introduced to couch surfing. WE LOVED IT! (Most of our reviews are from back then ;P). Now we settled back in Canada (Trois-Rivières, Québec) in dear but also not very touristy Trois-Rivières. Our family of Pierre-Olivier and I now include 2 kids + one cat (Elvis), and our home has blueberry bushes, a TON of books (mostly french ;)) and a piano. I'd say we are middle-aged hippies, bearded and long haired adults with serious jobs, but still travelers and very much still open minded explorers at heart.

If you happen to have business with UQTR, the local University, we are a small bike ride away (8 min), walkable even (20 minutes); and even closer to the CEGEP.

We love to cook, challenge you to a chess game, bathe in music and sunlight, recommend books, and host same minded travelers for a night,.. or a week !

+++ Nous sommes Québecois d'origine, nous parlons donc surtout français dans notre quotidien hihi; bonjour à tous les francophones !
