ABOUT ME

We have been friends for six years now. We met on a canoe trip up in James Bay and we have since shared our lives, and adventures.
We are both from Montreal and we have decided to move to Victoria, on Vancouver Island. We have both traveled across the vastness of Canada many times and wish to see something new on our continent. After having been to the North, we want to see the South.
We are laid back, respectful, and passionate creative folks.

PHILOSOPHY

well that's a conversation better had in person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We have been hitchhiking in Canada for the past couple of years and are new to CS. Right now, we have a car and are looking to give rides. As soon as we get set up in Victoria, we will be able to host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is pretty much how we live in Canada, just without the website. We host, we travel, we hitch rides... it's very easy in a country with so much open space and generous people to have faith in strangers and meet good folks.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We have seen the northern lights. The pyramids of Giza. The Saharan Desert. The midnight sun. We have been on top of the world. Leatherback Sea Turtles. The Canadian Wilderness. We have seen the generosity of humankind through hitchhiking across the country. Fluorescent plankton.
