On month # 7 of backpacking in Europe 🥾.

23 year-old wandering around Europe. I have no interest getting stuck in the North American 8 to 4 job life yet, so I am travelling the world for the foreseeable future. Backpacking for 3 months in Southeast Asia in 2023 changed my life and made me fall in love with travelling.

I studied Criminology in university in Canada, where I also played football/soccer.

I can fluently speak both French and English:).

My mantra: Just do it, otherwise you may regret it! I try to live every day as if it was the last, so I am always seeking to try and discover new things and experiences:). I know that everything always works itself out in the end.

Solo travelling is fun to see new places, but for me, I do it especially for the amazing people I meet along the way!

Hope to meet you soon:).

Music, Movies, and Books

EDM, pop, and techno music. Big fan of thriller and comedy movies.

I’ll read practically anything minus literature and poems; lately I have been more into self-growth books though!

One of my favorite recent reads: The Four Agreements, by Don Miguel Ruiz.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I slept in an abandoned bunker in Albania;

I explored some of the biggest caves in the world in Vietnam;

I did bungee jumping in Vancouver;

I went polar swimming in Norway;

I climbed a volcano in Guatemala and also did parasailing for the first time in that country;

I slept on a bamboo bed inside a shelter we built with our own bare hands in northern Laos.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have loads of experience hanging around kids! I would also love to discuss books and places I have visited, along with Criminology, which is what I studied in school.

I also have experience using the film editing program Premiere Pro - could teach you how to use that as well if it’s something that interests you!

I can also do some cooking 🧑‍🍳.
