About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Love my babies, study and enjoy the summer!

ABOUT ME

I'm easy to love because I love everyone. I don't take myself too seriously. I'm a former student in Philosophy, finished my first degree: I love to think and could not live without reading. I am a master traditionnal weaver and birth doula! I love to learn languages and to teach them as well. I have a strong ability to adapt myself to other ways of living, environements and cultures. Its actually something I actively seek.

PHILOSOPHY

Be tolerant, openminded and sincere: nothing will stop you. Always cast your first glance on something new with curiosity, not judgement.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing and Hosting! Do not know what I like the most...Oh yes I know : meeting cs people! We have settled down for a couple of years (3 kids!!) so we mostly hosted. I surfed quite some in the past and it counts in the best memories I have. Couchsurfing is for me one of the best part of any trip, and even of human experience all together. Its trust, its openness, its connexion, its care...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Fricking amazing! We met and shared with folks some of the most fantastic experiences a traveler can live. Couchsurfing is a blessing. It permits a real solidarity between travelers of the world. Makes me feel like the borders ares a suggestion, but not a fact :) I would have never seen cities like I did without the couchsurfing network. Its...yeah, its incredible.

Mon expérience en tant que surfer était tout simplement magistrale! J'ai rencontré des gens incroyables qui m'ont accueillie comme une soeur et m'ont montré leur ville d'une façon que, seule, je n'aurais jamais pu connaître. Cette expérience est pour moi vraiment une découverte et une bouffée de bonheur, sachant que la solidarité internationale peut réellement exister, de manière désintéressée. J'ai tenté d'offrir la même qualité d'expérience aux surfers que nous avons reçu chez nous, leur faisant découvrir les endroits secrets et merveilleux de Montréal.

Interests

Being a cheerful energic sporty girl. Being a mother. Reading, studying, traveling. I love to discover new people, places, things. I need to always learn. That's what keeps me alive. I'm so curious..! I'm very open-minded and respectful. I did 12 years of theater and dramatical arts, I think i'm pretty expressive. I'm also calm and discret because I love to spend a lot of time reading. I use to adore silence, but now I have 3 kids so.. not so much of that lately. Im deeply in love with my husband of 10y. We are queer friendly, poly friendly and LOVE to discuss anything about kink, relationship, relational intelligence, communication skills etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nepal and Thailand were the two places that I cried my eyes off when I had to leave. To see the people live their lives drastically in an opposite way than mine always make me feel good. It conforts me to know that there is not only one way os doing things and seeing life. It amaze me to meet new people and cultures.

Teach, Learn, Share

Je cuisine très bien parce que j'adore ca!
Je sais aussi coudre, broder, écrire de la poésie, lire à haute voix, j'ai une très bonne diction et je peux enseigner cela. Je suis diplômée en philosophie et en littérature, je parle parfaitement français et très bien anglais. J'aimerais apprendre le Russe, je possède de modestes bases. Je fais beaucoup de jogging et un peu de yoga.

I love to cook and am a foodie. I can recite poetry, read out loud with perfect diction and remeber long texts, sew and do embroderies, weave and accompany births, speak about books and find the one that will change your life, do most of the fancy cocktails you heard or not about, speak perfect french and very good english, Im pretty good at swimming, running and a little bit addict ti Brasilian Jiu Jitsu.
