About Me

CURRENT MISSION

A mission? I think I haven't found it yet. Meanwhile, just being me!

ABOUT ME

Montrealer for about 20 years now. I came here to study and never left. Love my city of Montreal and would like to share it with others. Just turned 41 this year and I live with my partner who is just adorable. We love to cook, just us at home or with a group of friends, or go out to restaurants. Love food from all over the world: indian, tibetan, mexican or Central American cuisine, among others.

Lately, I've been really involved in learning Portuguese. I just love the sound of the language. And brazilian music... What can I say. Looking forward to an upcoming trip to Brazil.

Eu gosteria muito conhecer gente do Brazil que mora aqui o que esta viajando por Montreal.

Bienvenue! Bem-vido! Welcome! Bienvenido!

PHILOSOPHY

Just being nice to people and enjoy a good meal. Good place to start!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CS Group Events and Language Exchange.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've gone to a few group reunions. I'd like to meet some Couchsurfers for drinks and small tour. I myself have not yet used couchsufing to travel but I certainly plan on trying it out. The CS idea is great.

Interests

Radio addict, sci-fi and foreign movies (or any movie for that matter), travel blogs and sites, hanging out with friends, good beer or wine, amateur plays, portuguese and spanish language
Sports: winter is mostly cross-country skiing, summer is more walking and bicycle. I'd like to try snowshowing this year.
