About Me

23 yo. Medschool student
Studying in Sherbrooke, Québec, Canada
Currently in a gap year travelling the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea behing Couchsurfing and I believe it's the best way to travel, going back to basics with the true spirit of discover and share. It is based on people'good will, something in which I believe a lot. I had an amazing couchsurfing experience in Vienna 2 years ago! Definitely look forward to meet new people.

Interests

Although I'm interested into everything, I have one big passion which is dancing. I danced in a Québec folk group Mackinaw for 8 years and I aslo teached to younger group. I also completed a pre-professional program in dancing.

I love to travel, meet new people and learn new things everyday. Travelling is part of my life(I've been travelling almost every year and I've been learning to know myself throught it).

Music, Movies, and Books

Music : French Canadian song-writers (always good to discover), old rock (because good music will always be good)
Books : This list would be too long, but there are some important: L'existentialisme est une humanisme (Jean-paul Sartre), Brave New World (Aldous Huxley), L'Étranger (Albert Camus), Le petit Prince (Antoine de Saint-Exupéry)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Tour with folk dance group Mackinaw in festivals in Spain (2013), Portugal (2015) and France (2017)
1month backpack in Europe (2016)
2 weeks in Morocco (2017)
Medical internships in Brussel and Bratislava

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach French Canadian words, which is btw quite different of French language.
I can also teach basic steps of folk French Canadian dancing like "gigue" which looks like tapping or irish jig, but still different.
I can share stories and I can wait to listen to yours. I'm very open-minded and ready to learn everything.
