About Me

Getting rid of ignorance one taboo at a time

ABOUT ME

A true Montrealer. Love the 4 seasons. I teached english as a second language for a while and now I do many other things as cited above. I do a thousand things at a time, always a project to accomplish and another one on my mind. Now my objective is to slow down and focus on my interior life while slowly visiting the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Check out the very interesting documentary ``What the bleep do we know?`` and find out.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since my last update to my profile, I got married and had 2 kids!! Wow, time flies when you're changing diapers!!

Oh and i moved in the suburbs of Montreal. I dont have much room to spare but if you want to camp on my property, there's plenty of space and you can enjoy the fresh air and maybe even a campfire!!

Cheers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was lucky to travel a lot and meet a lot of good people who have opened their hearts and homes to me way before the CS era. Much thanks to Guillaume in Marseilles-Nice, Anita in La Plata, Mylene and Michele in Buenos Aires and Ahmed in Essaouira, and Rajan in Delhi.
