Hello everybody,

I'm Martial,

I live in Rivière-du-Loup, Québec.

Always up for a drink, a good restaurant, a nice walk or run in a new city, a conversation or some board games.

Openly gay, btw 🏳️‍🌈

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Here to meet new people while traveling and share nice moments 🙂
Nothing beats discovering a city through the eyes of locals — it’s the best way to find hidden gems.
And it’s always a great chance to make new friends along the way!
