ABOUT ME

I am a creative but very laid back french Canadian girl from Montreal.
I am currently in my 4th year studying Design at Concordia U (from graphic to web, but mainly furniture design) and at the moment, my only goal after i get my diploma is to travel, maybe indefinitely.

I love discovering new bands, going to shows, cycling around in random alleys to find street art, scavenging for new furniture on the streets, browsing garage sales, reading in coffee shops, getting lost in thoughts during a long commute.

I couldnt live without:
my bike, espresso, my ipods, a pen and paper

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived out of a van in the woods in Tofino for 3 weeks with people I had just met. Those were probably the best weeks of my life.
