About Me
CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME
Bonjour! I am a bilingual french Canadian from a little town near beautiful Montreal, Quebec. I drove out to California almost 2 years ago now to live by the beach and still think it's the best decision I've ever made.
I absolutely love California and have met amazing people along the way. However, recently there was a fire in our apartment and after having to relocate to a friend's house, I decided to take this as a great opportunity to explore the rest of the West Coast, meet other travelers and stay with people who have a story to tell.
PHILOSOPHY
Living life with no regrets

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My biggest and most eye opening journey thus far has been my drive from Quebec to California. I traveled with 2 friends and we camped and stayed in KOAs during our 11 day trip. We experienced a flash flood, tarantula migration season, slept in a teepee, attended open festivals, met country singers, chatted with interesting characters and ate delicious food.
Teach, Learn, Share
When I visit a new city or even a city I've been to before, I want to learn about the hole-in-the-wall places, the secret beaches, the hidden hot spots...I don't want to be a tourist, I want to feel like a local and experience the authenticity of the place.
I love anything outdoors and learning about nature, cooking with the host, enjoying a glass of wine and chatting and maybe learning a new language.
In exchange, I can teach you french and make you a traditional Quebec dish called Poutine!
