About Me

CURRENT MISSION

We are couple friends working on a real crazy project. This AMAZING thing is MAKE PEOPLE DREAM MAGICALLY.

ABOUT ME

Benoit is a little Swiss guy who is also canadian. This is pretty cool.
Gwen is a little Canadian girl who is also .. from Quebec. This is not too cool (aha) Actually, it is !
We met last summer when we were picking cherries. You know climbing crazy ladder, going 12 feet up only for those BIG DARK CHERRIES ?
It was good time. Since this funny experience we decided to travel all over Canada together.
Travelling it's a choice we made for all who can't do it theirselves.

PHILOSOPHY

"Tous les blancs ont une montre, mais ils n'ont jamais le temps."
" All the whites have a watch, but they never have time "

"On tarde à grandir, on ne tarde pas à mourir."
"It is slow to grow, it does not take long to die"

"Que celui qui n'a pas traversé ne se moque pas de celui qui s'est noyé."
"Let him who has not crossed does not make fun of him who drowned."

They are all african proverbs. Basically, time goes really fast. We want to be the kind of person who did something. That means considaring humans for who they are and not necessarly changing them but doing something good for them. Even if we fail, we'll try everthing !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Gwen : I have a other account and I did hosting people when I was back to Montreal.
CS it's more than a way to save money, it's a way to meet people.. to share and above all it's a way to BE.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Gwen : Like I already said I did hosting people and one of the girl I hosted a year ago she spended 3 months in my little room and we decided to leave my appartement and hitch-hick up to the Yukon together. We had a crazy year travelling from the north to the south. We did hitch-hicking all the way to Guatemala. Now, she's back to France BUT we'll meet again in Argentina. KEEP GOING. We'll continue this tripp.
Benoit : It's my first CS experience. I would like to tell funny stories ! It will come !
