About Me

''Life is only a dream and we are the imagination of ourselve''

Born and raised with two bros on the organic farm of our parents in the country side, 20 k north of the Ottawa river, 80 k from the cities of Ottawa/ Gatineau/Hull and 120k from Montreal.
After a few years as a cook and an epic winter out west riding the best powder, I came back home with permaculture as inspiration and an opportunity on my father's land, with my brother, and a lot of wonderful projects. Went to ag school (DEC TPHE) to get paper serious, and truly meaningful learnings trough internship on different farms, home and school projects, enlightning books and memorable times with friends from very different backgrounds, all sharing the passion of having a good time together.
I graduated in spring 2013, built a tiny house in the fall, it'll be my 3rd winter in it, with a new EPA woodstove for the uncoming cold season! I've worked on the family farm, with part time scouting for bugs and diseases in fruits and veg. fields in different farms for an Agroenvironmental club.

I've started to plant a polyculture orchard in 2014 and production will start substentially in 2017.
The trees and bushes looks good'n ready heading to fall and, soon enough, into another unpredictable winter.

I am starting to work in an organic orchard in Oka, Qc next week, to finish the harvest season in an apple well. (fall 2015)

I'll also be traveling to seek for good snow conditions out East again this winter.

I am a great cook and have access to the best true and fresh food.

Im bringing veggies and fruits with me :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Share a piece of couch in my life to interested and interesting people that passes by.

Definitely looking for a, hopefully, loyal couch, at least for a few days, for the end of september till end of october. The closer to Oka, the better, but can make it all the way to St-Eustache and Mirabel. Thanks!

Partager un bout de sofa dans ma vie avec des gens intéressés, et intéressants!

Je cherche un endroit, idéalement pour un bon moment, de fin septembre à fin octobre. Le plus près possible d'Oka, mais de St-Eustache à Mirabel c'est très bien. Merci!
