FRANÇAIS

Je suis enseignant au primaire dans une école Montessori (pédagogie alternative) et en été, je me transforme en guide touristique pour la ville de Québec. Je prends également occasionnellement des contrats de développement web, c'était mon métier avant de me réorienter vers l'enseignement.

Je me passionne pour plusieurs choses: l'éducation Montessori, l'histoire, les voyages, la photographie, la cuisine... En fait, je suis super curieux et j'aime rencontrer des humains ouverts et généreux. Des rencontres qui me rendent heureux et qui enrichissent mon quotidien.

ENGLISH

I am a teacher in an elementary Montessori school. During the summer, I become an official tour guide for Quebec city. I also take sometime some contracts as a web developer, it was my job before I turned to education.

I am a passionate about many things like history, Montessori education, photography, cooking, traveling... In fact I am simply very curious and love to meet open-minded and generous people. Exchanges that make me happy and enrich my everyday life.

For a year from now, I changed a lot my life style after realizing two things. First, life is too short to say "I will do that one day.". Second, watching some life changing documentaries, I realized how violent we are with our planet and our bodies. I became almost vegetarian, brought exercise in my everyday life and try to respect more earth, other humans and me. Result? I'm happier and healthier than ever.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet people! I am a better person each time I learn to know somebody new. I feel like life should be a big shared thing where everybody gets a generous part.
