Hello, My name is Arnaud! I am from Québec and I am coming to Toronto to complete a PhD in Science and Technology Studies at York University. I am looking for a place to stay while I visit flats this weekend! I am landing in Toronto on the 7th of august coming back from a month of travels in europe. You can find me on facebook and Instagram under this name.

tThe best about travelling is the people you meet. If everything is figured out, there is no more room for surprises and adventures!

What I Can Share With Hosts
Most of the time I carry my longboard so if you have a bike or a longboard or a scooter we could ride around town!
My Interests
My main interests are social sciences; political science in the first place, but also economy and technologies, mostly information technologies (the topic of my PhD). I am very progressist/left wing and politically active. A project to which I identify a lot and that has been very central to my life is building a governance platform that enables anarcho-socialist ideals. In my free time, I need to move and play outside so I typically practice snowboarding, tennis, hockey, mountain biking and downhill longboarding. I also bike (fixed gear) all year long. Many of my sports need snow or hills so I am a bit worried about Toronto. I might try kitesurfing on the lake.
