Hello folks! Originally from Montréal, Canada, we're a young couple passionated about nature and life, Francis and I are students of environmental design at UQÀM (University of Quebec in Montreal). Together for now more than three years, we have at heart a healthy plant-based lifestyle. We are open minded, passionate about each other, interested in many different cultures, hiking the mountains and advocating a sustainable development and way of living. We describe ourselves as simple, sociable people, who require little to be happy. We appreciate the little things of life, laughing, biking, treks in nature, coffee, fruits and we especially like to be busy. In love with travelling with my other half

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
With a thirst for discovery and experiences, we joined CS's network to meet wonderful people and to enrich our knowledge, to share our attachment to nature and also develop our spirit of caring, We caught the backpacking bug on our second adventure in California in 2015 after meeting so many people through Couchsurfing. Between surfing sessions, cycling and long hikes, we have found time to cook at our guests and share memorable moments around a fire or a dining table.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
We trekked a 6-days trail in South Iceland from Landmannalaugar to Skogar entirefly on self-sufficiency, wild camping, crossing waist-high ice-cold iceberg river, climbing Eyjafjallajökull's falling volcanic rocks in one 12-hours day and hiked during 3 days of heavy rain. We hiked Yosemite's Half Dome trek and started at 4 am from our camping to catch our 6 o'clock bus.
