About Me

CURRENT MISSION

The enjoyable experiment - able!

ABOUT ME

A logic kind of personnality, loving to hang out, have a great time! I'm more the type of funky person you'll meet, pretty random and biting into life to extract as much juice as possible from it!

PHILOSOPHY

I dream of a better world and place to be. I wonder how my individual can change something about it. I have yet found a way for to make it better, but I know that I can make MY world preferable by outmatching expectations.
I also like the unusual, going out of the 'already done' tracks. I've done that for my teenage years and wanted to explore by my own because I was fed up with these tracks. I started going on my own at 17! Never changed since then!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am keeping myself as active as possible in the movment and am always here if you need heads up on uncomming events in Montreal or nice places to see or to go. I you are looking for places that not every tourists have seen from Montreal, let me know!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined CS in late august 2008, but have gotten many couch exchange experiences through my young life! In fact, at 17, I left in train to go down the USA to meet an Internet friend. I spent 2 months with him and his family, even celebrated my 18th birth day with him and his friends. I then brought it back home to sleep over my place for as long as he could and invited him to my sister's wedding! Since then, I keep on spending at least a month a year over his place, but am looking for new places to visit now!
Through him, I've met his mom's coworkers that lives and work in Toronto and Michigan! I invited them over my place for two handful of days and toured them around town. I kept the thank you letter they left on my kitchen table before leaving.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went backpacking when I was 17 by my own, crossed the border and thought I'd never go back! I did go back, but am always looking forward the next destination! I've gotten some aquaintances with people around the world - other travellers like me, shared experiences and so much more!

Teach, Learn, Share

I studied the origins of Montreal, where I live and have a couch. I'm one of a kind host that will tour around Montreal and even road trip with you to the other major city - our Capital; Quebec City. I'm also looking to learn about your community's background as the tracks that's been drawn for travellers doesn't interest me that much - I want it real!
I'm also looking to share my experience at cooking and learn new ways of cooking!
