ABOUT ME
I love travelling with my daughter who is 6 years old. I started to travel with her when she was 16 months in West Africa.
I used to travel for working on the field, but I like it for my pleasure too!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Hosting and surfing... As I became a CS member recently, I haven't participated in activities yet. But I will!!!!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
This is the first time I have my own profile. Before, I had one with my husband. Since we are separated now, I decided to get my own profile.
We used to have couchsurfers in our appartment in Quebec city from 2005 to 2009.
Summer time in Quebec city is really cool, so I hope to have couchsurfers at home in summer 2012. Winter is cool (cold!) too, but it is really different for the activities to do inside or outside the city.
