HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I usually go to another town in Canada for a week-end or so. This occurs when a special event comes up.

Burlington, Ontario for the ordination of a childhood friend who became a priest in October 2011. My host was a member of his parish.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I swam in Northumberland Straight on two occasions when the water temperature was 13 degrees and the air was 18 degrees!

I walked on a fragment of the Berlin Wall in 1992! At the time, it was no longer a fortification but fragments of it were still up.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach people a lot about the West Island. (A suburban area of Montreal.) It's history, geography, demographics and politics. It is after all, the place where I grew up!
