About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am planning on travelling in Spain this upcoming fall

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Montreal Canada, lived in Quebec City for a while and then moved to California to go to school. I graduated last year and I am now back in Montreal working for a music label. I swam competitively almost all my life and still tried to take the time to travel... I took trips to Europe, Australia, the Carabeans, Hawaii and Mexico so far. My dad owns a sail boat and I've been spending every summer of my life on some Islands up north in Quebec called the Magdelan Islands. I enjoy surfing a lot as well.

PHILOSOPHY

I just hope I keep on learning from cool people I come across all my life. "Making the unfamiliar familiar"
" You're the sum of the people you met"
" Peu importe le siège sur lequel on trône, on est toujours assis que sur son cul"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is my first time on the site and I am amazed to see that such a community exists...
Backpacking is my type of travelling experience. I don't see how 5 star hotels would teach me a new culture.

Music, Movies, and Books

Good movies.. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Happiness, Requiem for a Dream (hard core but good!), L'Auberge Espagnol, Big Fish, Chocolate.
Music: Dave Mathews, Beck, Ben Harper, Elliot Smith, Jack Johnson, Bob Marley, Tom Waits, Jimmy Hendrix always, Franz Ferdinand, The Roots, The Clash, Modest Mouse, Miss Kittin, Fischer Spooner to name a few...
Books: Well, any essays or novel that you have to read over almost every paragraph, not because it's essential to the story but because its says on paper things and states of mind you've always felt unconsciously. (philosophy or psychology) I also like love to read editorials in the newpapers, in dept analysis of world news, events, trends... ect.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm better at telling stories in person...
