Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Survive my studies by traveling and meeting new people :)
ABOUT ME
I am from Montréal. I love meeting new people from all around the world and learning about their different cultures (especially food :P ).
Even though I do not have a lot of CouchSurfing friends, I have been staying with and hosting friends and Swing dancers and people met through other sites for the past couple of years now. I am pretty used to hosting and staying at other people's places!
PHILOSOPHY
Le bonheur c'est partager!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I believe that Couchsurfing espouses values of sharing and community that are often lacking in this world, where we are often left to fend for ourselves, a hyperindividualism that is not compatible with our basic social human nature. Couchsurfing is a wonderful way to get to meet people and exchange cultures.
Interests
I study Medicine, but I am also really interested in film and in Music. I play in a band where we meld our classical training into a folk rock sound. I also love reading, I just recently finished some Jonathan Safran Foer books. I also love many sports, especially biking and squash:)
I Swing dance, and love music from the 1920s-1940s and learning about Jazz.

Teach, Learn, Share
I can give you a Québec history and politics 101 from a minority perspective (and obviously biased!) and you can tell me all about the wonderful place where you are from or have traveled :)
Let's talk about philosophy, art, politics, and the everyday beauties of life.
