Originally from Quebec City, I also lived in Asia (China and Vietnam) for three years as well as Montreal for two years.

I love the outdoors, especially cycling! I live with my boyfriend Jeff and our dog in a house we own in Limoilou.

PHILOSOPHY

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
Everything happens for a reason.
You never know how far you can go until you try going there.
20 years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did, so just friggin do it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to get to know my hosts and guests, not just use CS as free accommodation.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted many people for many years through student exchanges, AIESEC or through friends, and a little through CouchSurfing. I've hosted in Quebec City, Toronto, Ho Chi Minh City and Montreal.

I started surfing using CouchSurfing while on my trip cycling the Pacific Coast and so far it's been a great way to meet locals and learn from great conversations. Now that I'm back in Quebec City, I feel I have to pay it forward. I would love to host touring cyclists, but other interesting people as well.

Interests

outdoors, cycling, travels, languages, cultures, developing people, education

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent July and August 2012 traveling from Golden, BC, Canada to Tijuana, Mexico by bicycle, a 3800 km adventure in about 7 weeks (with lots of rest days to visit Vancouver, Victoria, Seattle, San Francisco, LA and San Diego!).

I also cycled the coast of Australia in January 2013! I love challenges! In the summer of 2013, I cycled from Quebec City to Cape Breton, as well as the James Bay Road.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach French and English, and Quebec culture and politics. I also have good advice for traveling in Southeast Asia as I lived there for over two years.

I don't have any special skills to entertain you like juggling or magic tricks, but I hope I can inspire you through my stories and make you want to get up and travel.
