About Me

I have grown up in various parts of the world before settling down in Canada. As I enjoy travelling, I am taking this time after having finished my teaching degree to travel and practice my French as well as get immersed in different cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Cultures interest me, being the language nerd I am, and how better to learn about different cultures than to get to know people through travelling?

Interests

I have a deep appreciation and fascinaton for Francophone, and Japanese, Korean and other Asian culture and media. As I a a lifelong learner, I am always looking out for podcasts, documentaries, movies and shows that teach me new things about this world we live in.

Music, Movies, and Books

There are many that I like, but I would have to say that I like music from the 80s, Jpop and Kpop among others.

I enjoy documentaries, podcasts, and most adventure/sci-fi/thriller/foreign movies. I enjoy Vox and Vice documentaries, the True Cost (one of the most excellent documentaries I've ever seen). In terms of podcasts, I am currently listening to 99% invisible.

I really like nonfiction. I enjoy reading about people's real-life experiences.
