About Me

RIGHT NOW, I can only accept ONE guest on the weekdays (Monday to Thursday night, no more than 1-2 nights. )
Guest will be sleeping on my couch, if you have sleeping bag or any portable mattress, I suggest it!

I can only host ONE GUEST.

First of all, as a geek,I read a lot comic books and litterature and play RPG's (like Call of Chtulu or Vampire). I also draw my own personal comics, mostly illustrating songs I My passion goes toward culture, theater, museum and bars.

My native langage is french like.
My english is kind of rusty as I don't use it that much where I live.
I'm a graphic designer and working in a small newspaper in Old Montreal as a freelancer.

I'm a respectful person. I'm shy, but talkative enough when I feel confortable. I love culture and intelligent debates. I love listening people telling their experience.

I'm open-minded : I try my best to accept people for who they are without prejudices.

I seek hosts and guests that are not judging others difference towards race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, disabilities, ect.

I don't have references as I just subscribed. It's been a while since my last travel and since I can afford to go out of Montreal. Couchsurfing is for me a new delightful discovery. Please, feel free to ask me questions.
Let me know if you have a place for me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've travel just a bit, in my life. Never been to hotels. I'm a shy backpacker by heart. I loved my experiences in youth hostels. A friend just told me about couchsurfing! I love to meet people.
And I can accept one guest!!! ONLY ONE GUEST. It's a one bedroom open appartment. If you like, I can show you a bit the city from time to time. But after hosting a few times, I found out that I might not be really into small talk and I can be tired after returning from work, so I'd prefer independant guests.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music : Folk (Moriarty) Frech pop (Indochine) Electro and metal

Books : I read a lot (waaaaay too much) thrillers. My favorite thriller author is Dennis Lehane.

My favorite author of all times is Angela Carter. The company of Wolves and Night at the Circus.
I like Camus, Maxime-Olivier Moutier, Paulo Coelho, Umberto Eco, Daniel Pennac, Lovecraft and many, many mores.
My little guilt goes for Anne Rice.
My favorites graphic novels are, so far, Habibi from Craig Thompson, Sambre from Yslaire, From Hell from Alan Moore.

My favorite movie is Amadeus. I do love clever movies. Ghost stories. Historical movies. I don't like the Hollywood standard action movie.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being who I am! Being alive!

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I love to hear people stories. I love to debate and learn other cultures or way of life. I can help you with french as long as you're patient with my rusty english.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can certainly share some groceries. Probably bring a bottle of Sortilège to my host. If you want to learn french.
