About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Always accept my own vulnerability as a human being and by such an attitude stay opened to the flow of life.

ABOUT ME

after a thousand years trying to know myself it is still hard to simply talk about me. I would say that i am a very sensitive person, a good listener (professional deformation?). I grew up on a farm; maybe that is why I love nature so much. I come from a family of 9 children; being the fifth, right in the middle, i have learned to be a good mediator. I hope I'll die at 120 yers old. I love life so much!!!!!

PHILOSOPHY

just keep my heart opened to what life brings me so generously.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can offer a couch in the country, about an hour from Montreal on the north shore. It is a very private and quiet place by the Ouareau river.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm a beginner in couch surfing but I have traveled a lot hitchhiking in my twenties, sleeping outside most of the time and being invited by locals for a couple of days. It was a kind of couch surfing before it was named that way.

Interests

to set off on an adventure. sport, music and treking ( walked to Compostelle last spring). canoe, tasting new foods, watching wild animals in the nature, singing by a firecamp with friends.
