CURRENT MISSION

I’m visiting Montreal for the week! Once my US visas are up next year I’m considering a move up here, so this is something of a reconnaissance mission :) I’m also fascinated by cities and transit, and have been meaning to visit Quebec for a long time.

ABOUT ME

I’m originally from Belgium, raised in Brazil, and came to the US for college - I’m currently an Urban Planning graduate student at UC Berkeley.
I spend most of my free time rock climbing, trail running, or playing music. I consider myself very active, if a little introverted.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet some great people! Otherwise I’d just camp alone.

Interests

Rock climbing! Plus spending time outdoors/doing anything active. Running.

I'm a vegetarian,

I like wandering about. I like being creative.

Music, Movies, and Books

The City and the City by China Mieville is maybe my favorite book

I appreciate most music (I play guitar and piano), but especially jazz and acoustic music. I love dancing, though mostly to funk/jazz/oldies. We should exchange music!

I like my movies to be stylized!

I've unfortunately replaced most of my reading time with the consumption of excessive amounts of online news/essays/articles

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Performed as Lumière in a charity theater production of Beauty and the Beast

Teach, Learn, Share

I can cook semi-decently, so perhaps a cooked meal? I can also play music. I can offer my eternal gratitude, and some good company. ...Or anything else we can hash out before hand.

Countries I’ve Lived In

Belgium, Brazil, Malaysia, Oman, United States
