I am currently a Masters student from and living in Montreal, owner of one dog and two cats, played violin for about 10 years. I also worked in a science summer camp for 4 years (although I did not learn many weird camp songs, I did have a lot of fun teaching kids about robots, volcanoes and quantum mechanics) during my undergrad in physics. When I'm not trying to convince kids that they can be whatever they want to be, I'm usually walking around and singing.

I also am definitely obsessed with food, coffee and jigsaw puzzles.

Due to an absolute lack of coordination, I am amazingly clumsy and therefore promise to do my very best not to break anything. It also makes me terrible at sports. Although I can manage bicycles and most of the time walking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I figured meeting new people and hearing about the life as a local would be much more fun and interesting than going to a hotel.

Interests

Reading a book and enjoying a good beer in a park is pretty much the definition of hapiness to me.

• coffee

• karaoke
• mathematics
• physics
• musicals
• good beer
• medical imaging
• grapefruits
• sunday morning brunch
• summertime (4 months a year hopefully)
• obnoxious socks

Music, Movies, and Books

I'll listen to pretty much anything. I am a big fan of 80's hits for night-out purposes, but will usually settle for electro or jazz on a more productivity-inclined day.

Favourites include (but are not exclusively consisting of) : Mr. Nobody, Big Fish, Moonrise Kingdom, Singin' In The Rain, American Beauty, Inglourious Basterds, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Pan's Labyrinth, Edward Scissorhands, Memento, Back To The Future...

Don't get me started on TV shows.

As for the books, I have no idea where to start. Let's just stay I love them with all my heart.

I'm more of a ''It's in the little things'' kind of person.
