About Me

I travel whenever I can; always trying to get the real essence of the country I'm visiting. For the past years, I have been cumulating contracts in advertising/marketing, allowing me to travel in between jobs. For me, it’s the perfect balance between freedom and stability. I’m a responsible traveller, respecting every culture differences and being precautious of the environment of the countries I’m into. I’m also a sociable person who likes to discuss, laugh and meet new people.

In my ‘’real day life’’, I’m enjoying the active and colourful Montreal (CA), cumulating good moments with my friends and family.

I have been to 17 countries so far and still counting...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I believe it’s the best way to discover a new place in all its authenticity. We have so much to learn, so much to share!

Interests

Fan of scuba diving (Advance Open water); my best dive so far was with Thresher sharks near Malapascua in the Philippines.

Yoga apprentice; I try to practice it every morning and I love to do yoga classes in different countries. It’s amazing how a simple sun salutation can bring you a complete different feeling depending of the context you’re in.

Meditation newbie; I’m trying really hard to understand and learn to control my mind since a 10 days Vipassana journey in Thailand.

Other than that, I love cooking good and healthy meals for my friends and laugh around a glass of wine (or 2, or 3…).

Music, Movies, and Books

Most of my favourite books are in French since I'm from the French part of Canada: Du mercure sous la langue, carnet de naufrage, lorsque j’étais une œuvre d’art… Et bien d’autres!

I like all different type of music, from Elvis Presley to the Black keys. But don’t ask me to sing (even at karaoke) or play an instrument, your ears will regret it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sky diving with my family for my dad’s 50th anniversary. He is going to be 60 in a few years; you have any similar gift suggestions?

Watch the sunrise in a hot air balloon above Bagan’s temples in Myanmar. One of the most beautiful things I have seen.

A road trip from the east coast to the middle part of the USA with my sister. We slept in the car, listen to country music and had such a good time.

It's to hard to pick only one!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to crochet cute baby hats, booties or scarfs.
I will also gladly teach you French with my so unique French Canadian accent if you want to!

What are your interests? I’m a curious and open minded person who loves to learn about all sorts of subjects and discover new outdoor activities!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A morning yoga routine, a good meal and a lot of smiles!
