Overview
About Me
I am a 5' tall girl who just turned 18 and was eager to register to Couch Surfing!
I am looking forward to a month in Iceland with my cousin of 23 years old, my first time with a packsac!
Even though we'll travel side by side, I'll describe myself a little bit more so you can get to know me better! (But don't worry my cousin is an awesome girl, in nurse school, on her way to travel the world!)
So, yes, I enjoy learning about different cultures and getting to know the people in the places I go. I am really open-minded and ready for awesome adventures (like learning how to pronounce vatnajoküll, I'm working on it so bad!).
I am a vegetarian since two years, but I'll try not being too peaky on it, I still want to taste Iceland's classic meals.
I gave myself a goal to put a feet on every continent, I think that when you travel you get to know yourself better and you become an awesome human being.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I first tough about couch surfing because it looks like the perfect way to really enjoy your trip, to connect with the locals. Getting tips ans tricks from people who stay there year long is better than any website.
Also, we are planning to go all around the island with our sleeping bags, from camping to youth hostels and hopefully to some locals' place, trying to save money but live the trip 100%!
I think it's a great way to open my horizon and discover new persons!
Interests
So many interests, it makes it hard for me to choose a career!
I like photography (yeah Iceland and its awesome views), running and learning new languages (yeah Icelandic).
I like when justice is done, when people recycle, when someone makes me laugh, I LOVE MAKING COOL JOKES!
So interested in getting the most of this trip, and YOU could make a difference!

Music, Movies, and Books
I love listening to different type of music from Alt-J, to The Black Keys! My top favorite is Patrick Watson (he's from Quebec) :)
Someone made me discover Sigur Ròs (Icelander group), a couple year ago, and I have to admit that I totally love it! I only have the album with the guy running naked, but I'm happy with it!
SHOW ME YOUR FAVORITE MUSIC, I told you, I'm open minded!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I went in South Africa with school in 2012, for twelve days. This trip made me realise that I wanted to travel the world (crossing my fingers it'll happen).
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you how to do cool braids in your hair, or how to speak French! It'll be a pleasure to share some life experience with people that are as enthusiastic as I am.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can show you cool places in Montreal if you come by!
