Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Seek out new people and new cultures. To boldly go where I've never gone before
ABOUT ME
About half a year ago, I had an enlightening conversation which completely turned my life upside down. Now I want to travel the world, meet new people and learn new cultures. I only heard about this website a few days ago, so now here I am!
I work as an IT tech support, which means I studied way way too long for my job, but as you might gather if you read this profile, I really enjoy the process of learning
PHILOSOPHY
Don't worry, be happy.
Once you stop learning, you start dying
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Only hosted for now, but I'm going on a trip around Europe starting in April.
I'd like to discuss, share a meal at a small restaurant you wouldn't find in a tourist guide, or even at home.
Going out in a local pub could also be a great option.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Still quite new to this. Help me fill this out :)
Interests
-I like going in small restaurants. I could show you the best poutine in Montreal (poutine = Quebec's traditionnal meal)
-Talking about politics, different culture, or anything absurd. I like learning new stuff, so I'll be interested in any subject I'm not familiar with, as long as it's not car or fashion.
-Going out in pubs, eating and drinking cider or weird drinks. I think ordering a good old 'surprise me' is always a nice way to discover something new and leave the waiter puzzled.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I ate the best burger in the world, which happens to be served in Montreal.
I have a nice big frame of it over the couch.
I've also done some skydiving and other stuff, but the burger thing is waaayy cooler.
