CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world and try to stop worrying about everything.

ABOUT ME

I'm an enthusiastic communications officer who moved to the West Coast of Canada over a year ago. Before that I worked as an au pair for a year in Finland, studied in Ottawa and grew up in (delicious) Montreal. I enjoy travelling around the world, blogging about my travel adventures, taking pictures of amazing landscapes, reading, cooking, playing the piano and jogging. I'm a very positive and dynamic person. Oh, and I love cats. Like, a lot.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal rules are: respect, common sense and smiling. It goes a really long way! I also try to see some humour or life lessons in the bad things that happen from time to time.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently unable to host couchsurfers. On the other hand, I'd be more than happy to have a coffee with you or to discover Vancouver's cool spots in your company!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I travelled across south-west Switzerland in 2011 using Couchsurfing. I met wonderful people and families along the way and I can tell you that I won't ever book a night at the hotel anymore. The cultural exchanges were incredible and some people I met are still my friends 4 years later. I then couchsurfed again in Denmark, where I also met wonderful people that I still talk to on a regular basis :)

音乐、电影和书籍

My ideal job would be to read books full-time. Since I can't make that happen at the moment, I still try to dedicate a lot of time to reading novels. My favourite authors include Alexandre Dumas, Haruki Murakami, Jose Saramago, to name a few...

As for movies, the list would be quite long. I do have a thing for international cinema and tv series (I gotta admit, I'm a professional Netflix binger!).

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Walking in the Lavaux vineyards overlooking Geneva Lake and the French Alps at sunset was a beautiful, breathtaking experience. Also, being able to speak Finnish!

教，学，和分享

I can teach you some French and how to cook French and Finnish delicacies! I can also give you some good book recommendations. Or even actual books, as my bookcases are too full... Or even take pictures of you (portraits, etc.) if you need them? I'm also excellent at washing dishes (and I actually enjoy it. True story.)

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Cooking (my friends call me the Cake Master, but I'm not bad at cooking coucous, soups, stews and innovative sandwiches, among others). French. Finnish. Anything :)
