CURRENT MISSION

Currently I am exploring other life changing choices, with a deep fascination for the Far East.

Due to COVID-19 as well as other reasons, I am extremely selective about hosting anyone, including my family and friends. With Covid lockdowns, much of what I have describe bed below may may have changed.

ABOUT ME

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE SENDING ME A REQUEST.
I enjoy everything to do with nature, seeing magic and beauty in the simplest things, and living in the moment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Sharing a kind of "trust" that is rare today.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Teach, Learn, Share

Be generous with your material wealth, knowledge, influence, personal resources and time, and make a difference in the world around you.

There is sooooooo much.....to learn, to teach, to share. But it starts with YOU!

What I Can Share with Hosts

NON-SMOKERS ONLY!!! Just in case its not clear, I do not host people who smoke. I am simply intolerant to the smell of cigarettes and pot. If I learn that you are a smoker, I will ask you to leave. Also, I do not host people for just 1 night unless of course you have special circumstances.

To better your chances of me hosting you, try having a complete and detailed profile and sending me a personalized message. The more details, the better. If you are travelling with others, share more information to help me plan accordingly.

I can offer you and your travelling companion(s) a very clean and furnished private guest room with fresh linen and towels. Also, you will have access to laundry, kitchen, WiFi, hot tub in the cold weather, bicycles, snow shoes, kayaks, and other leisure stuff.

Whenever possible, I like to prepare and share meals with couchsurfers, and always welcome your curiosity and helping hand.

Expose travellers to urban and underground & urban arts, music and culture scenes and even excursions to places outside the city i.e. Gatineau Park.

Note: All I ask is that you are respectful of my home. This is not a hotel, Air B&B or a hostel. Please help me keep my home clean and tidy.
