About Me

Hey !

Speaking of myself seems very difficult, so I'll keep it short and simple.
Instead, I will say the main reasons that would make you willing to welcome me to your place.

I'm a very sociable person who likes to talk (maybe too much sometimes ;) ), listen and meet new people (obviously not a surprise on CS). I am also curious, energetic and helpful. I like to learn new things and discover new places as much as I love to talk about pretty much everything with people from different cultures and countries.

Philosophy

It is a big and beautiful world. Most of us live and die in the same corner where we were born and never get to see any of it. I don't want to be most of us.
- Game of Thrones

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I already experienced a trip to Europe for a period of one month, in 2014. I really liked the people I met and I thought that for my second trip, I would like to try CS in order to meet local people, see the best kept secrets of cities and of course, make new friends who will someday visit me in Canada. For me, CS is the best way to share experiences, crazy stories, and learn from different cultures.

Interests

Travel, travel and travel! Except dreaming about going around the world, I like design, architecture, photography and history. I like doing sports (swimming, spinning, crossfit, work out, dance, running, pilates, I almost tried everything). I also like to enjoy good and new meals with nice people. Art, scrapbooking, browsing Pinterest (yes, I admit it), reading and listening to TV series are also amongst my interests. I have a collection of keychains from all the cities I visited so far in my life (oups, I know it's kitsch ;) ) so we might have to find one in your city.

Music, Movies, and Books

My music tastes are hard to understand, even for me. Country music, pop, metal, rock, I really enjoy all kind of music and I think there is a time in your life to listen to every song and artist.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

All my trips are part of the wonderful things I have done. From backpacking in Europe on the other side of the ocean to visiting my own country in Western Canada, travel memories are the best I have and it is for this reason that I wish to continue to travel, because it makes me grow and that's what I like the most! I want to travel across the world and breathe the air of new places !!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can easily teach you to speak French, talk about life and places to visit on the other side of the continent. I can cook you typical Canadian meal. I can also tell you about my travel experiences and I'm eager to listen to yours.
