About Me

Hey there,

Quebecer, visiting France, the Netherlands and Germany this summer, half vacation, half university. D. student in media history (gay cultures of the 1960s), amateur ballet dancer, gardener, meme admin and somewhat of a visual artist. Hopefully meeting gay and queer people along the way this summer !

I'm a libra, so guess what : I love to meet new people, cultures, and the likes. I thus enjoy both hosting and staying with members of the CS community, as well as attending CS events while traveling. It is always nice to take the time to get to know new people.

As a guest, I'm as much a solo than a social traveler. If the occasion is good for you, I'll be thrilled to chill out, go explore together or to go out for beers. That said, I also enjoy spending my days wandering in a new place alone. When the timing is right, I like to cook a meal to say thank you for hosting me.

As a host, I follow my routine, yet gladly offer a bed and a beer when the timing's good. If you happen to visit on a weekend and if you feel like it, I'm happy to explore Montreal with you. You've come to the right city anyway !

In any scenario, I look forward to meet you !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelled across parallel universes (?)

Teach, Learn, Share

Happy to share about any cited above interests, curious about geopolitics, local culture, hipster scenes, and thus forth.

I also do macrame, would you want to learn to do a plant hanger (would you?), and upcycled bracelets from bike tires (although I'm very bad at it).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cook a meal, a bottle of wine or a beer, seeds from my garden, jokes, stories from home and elsewhere, good times, and the likes.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Costa Rica, Denmark, France, Greece, Hungary, Netherlands, Serbia, Slovenia, Sweden, United States
