Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Discovering my new hometown Chicoutimi and all great outdoors surrounding it. Giving back to the couchsurfing community.
ABOUT ME
I'm from Montréal but I recently moved to Chicoutimi after falling in love with the area. I live with me girlfriend. Come see us. I have extensively use Couchsurfing on my own trips and feel that it is my turn to invite people to my place.
PHILOSOPHY
Not the type of man to wait for his retirement before exploring the world and its people. I like to be challenged every day so I can learn some stuffs. RESPECT and SHARING are very important to me. Come to my place if you are looking for good discussions, wild adventures on bike or kayak, or simply for a beer in front of the Saguenay fjord. Pass your turn if you are looking for a hotel room, which is quite far from "Sharing".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Got a bike accident in Iran, spent a night escorted by the secrete police.
The other day I saw somebody dumping trashes from his car directly on the road. I got mad, and threw the trashes back to the driver. I felt like Batman or something...
