About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to give back to travellers what was so kindly given to me in my travels

ABOUT ME

I've traveled to many countries in the past few years, through my travels I have learned to admire cultural differences throughout the world. Now that I am home for studies want to live my passion of travelling through fellow couch surfers.
I live with 2 roomates (1 guy - 1 girl)both are bilingual. Our appartement is conviniently located in the downtown area, in the heart of the action close to a lot of services (popular bars, restaurants, museums, university,boutiques). It is cozy, large and friendly. We're also easily accessible by public transit. You are very welcome in our place!

PHILOSOPHY

Heureux est l'homme qui sait faire sien le moment présent et qui sait se dire:"quoi qu'il arrive demain, j'ai vécu aujourd'hui."

"Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés"

"Doing what you like is freedom, liking what you do is happiness"

"Home is where your heart is"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to host people in my place. We usually host our friends because we're so well located that they always ask us to sleep over! We call our place " the hostel" because of the ambiance in apartment! I didn't have a lot of couch surfer so far but I can tell you that I host at least 2 persons per week in our place. We're very friendly people and we like to give a warm welcome to each of our guest!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couched few times when i went to Quebec city and I always had a nice experience. It's always very convinient and fun!
