Hi, my name is Vincent and I’m 23. I just graduated (woohoo!) and started the work life with Labatt brewing beer (did I mention I love beer?). I love to travel, usually backpacking, to meet new people and experience other cultures. I also do a lot of hiking but there are not a lot of good ones around me :( , and sports in general (huge soccer/football fan). I grew up speaking French but picked up English quite early since Montreal is such a multicultural town. I love Vietnamese and Mexican food with the right amount of spices!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Experienced Couchsurfing with friends and my brother and really loved to meet locals who were ready to share their culture, knowledge and experiences in a relaxed way. This helped me enjoy the cities I was visiting even more and have memorable experiences. I have met incredible people and I am highly interested in meeting others in this community and give back!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ran with the Bulls at the San Fermin Festival in Pamplona!!

Hiked Mount Doom (from Lord of the Rings) in New Zealand and to the Half-dome in Yosemite NP (and many other hikes)

Lived for half a year in Sydney, Australia and had a blast Down Under meeting Aussies, doing tons of road trips and camping!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning about people, cultures and languages. I can teach some French with the special differences of Quebec compared to France and about the brewing process.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my knowledge of the places I have lived/visited and other life experiences!
