Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Making the best friggin' movie you've ever seen- Finding my true self-having a good time-meeting people from everywhere and anywhere
ABOUT ME
I am an artist. I am a dreamer. I am adventurous. I am independent. I am a great friend.
I've gained so much life experience by traveling- be it flying to South America to see a man I liked and making our way up the Brazilian coast for 2 months, roadtripping the USA for a month Jack Kerouac-style with my friend Maryse, or backpacking alone for 5 months in Europe, and I want everybody who wants to be able to do the same... so come on down and surf my couch!
I'm presently working towards becoming a screenwriter for cinema. I like cats, the sun, dancing to good music, writing, watching movies, learning languages, and so much more! I don't like hot melted cheese or people that refuse to think hard enough (both are the same in essence). Shopping centers depress me, pigeons, mascots and clowns scare me.
For some odd reason, my friends often say I'm like a tiger- sometimes i just lie around lazily for hours, and suddenly I jump up and spring into action. WATCH OUT. RAR
PHILOSOPHY
Do The Right Thing.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Making Quebec meet the world.
Hosting people in Montreal, Dublin, or wherever I happen to be, seeking to be more active in the CS community of this beautiful city!
Also, watching many Jon Lajoie videos (Marry me, Jon! Haha, NOT. Okay, yes. Anytime.)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've met truly awesome human beings while couchsurfing, and I want to give back by hosting some people in Montreal and showing them how beautiful my city is and making sure they have a good time.
Hosted 9 people in Montreal, was hosted by 6 in the USA, couchsurfed my way through Western Europe! In five months I had 22 hosts...thank you to all of you for making my trip an amazing experience! See you in Montréal!
