I like simple things that make the world beautiful. I have always believed that our purpose in life was to be happy. It is our mission on Earth. Our track to leave . Whenever I do something , I wonder if this will contribute to the happiness of others and to my own happiness. I try to work on my thoughts so they are always positive , and thus closer to the ultimate goal of life: seek to become a better human every single day.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing
I believe Couchsurfing is the best way to help other backpackers on the road and also to meet local people. Share bits of life with strangers is a beautiful things, and I think that's the way to travel which make us learning the most about life and about different ways to live. I think Couchsurfing or wwofing get you deeper in the experience and give you the opportunity to meet the greatest locals there is. I didn't have the chance yet to host people because I was living in my family house with my parents, so it was complicated...but for sure when I will be back, I want to give back with all the love that I received!!!!
Música, Filmes e Livros
Music: Xavier Rudd, Kim Churchill, Bob Dylan, Artic Monkeys, Cat Stevens, Simon & Garfunkel, Half Moon Run, Canailles, Eddie Vedder, The Barr Brothers, Alt-J, and the list goes on. I also have a crush for our Quebec music groups , which are unfortunately not enough known for their wonderful talent. Books: I love the books of the Dalai Lama, in which I always learn something important to become a better human . I also like books that offer a deep reflexion about life and humans, one of my favourite is "6th extinction" which talks about all the extinctions of especies which humans are responsibles of...sad but true. And that's a very important value for me: facing the real problems and that we are all concerned.
Uma Coisa Incrível Que Já Fiz
Jumping into Cenotes in Yucatan, Mexico. AMAZING
Ensinar, Aprender, Compartilhar
I want to learn as much as possible from people on my road and from their culture. Each person has someting to teach me.
O Que Posso Oferecer aos Hosts
I can share my positive outlook on life , my enthusiasm, my desire to always have fun and my eternal smile. I can also share my Quebec culture and my passion for the outdoors ... and why not some vegetarian freshly cooked meals, with an herbal infusion!
Meus Interesses
I always want to learn something from everything. That's why I'm always open-minded to try new things and to discover what is unknown to me. Learning opportunities are endless , which is why I want to take every opportunity to learn more. I like to travel for sure , but I like the kind of simple trip into contact with local people, culture, and being surrounded by nature and being in harmony with it. Besides, I like sports, especially outdoors: hiking, camping, kayaking, snowshoeing, climbing, who also give me this amazing feeling, in addition to yoga and meditation , which allows me to listen to myself and my body. Nature and the environment have always fascinated me , as much as they concern me. In everyday life, I try to do my part as a citizen by my daily actions: taking public bus or my bike , making compost and recycling , reducing my waste , making my own natural products , recycling articles to create new ones, eating organic and fair as possible . It's important to me. This is important for the Earth who is actually my house.
