About Me

During my studies, I took opportunities during summers to travel. I'm a backpacker who likes to discover other cultures, landscapes … and food!

Since 2007, I was in university. I chose to take a sabbatical year in 2015 in New Zealand for one year. Outdoor enthusiast, I chose this destination for its landscape and to improve my english at the same time!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a kind of exchange and a way of travelling which corresponds best to me . It's cheaper, it helps to connect with other travellers and to have better plan to discover the country.

Interests

Travel, yoga, hiking, camping, hockey, ultimate frisbee ... or simply a cup of wine with friends around a fire. I want to take kayak courses during this trip.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Chic-Chocs Wildlife sanctuary in Gaspésie (Québec, Canada) - see our great caribous in the top of the mountain … Amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I came in New Zealand to improve my English …. so, if you want to learn French, we can have an exchange conversation.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you are interesting to discover Quebec, a place with 4 seasons and where we can have less than 40ºC during winter (it's true) and plus 30ºC during summer, it will be a pleasure to tell stories about my country!
