About Me

I am a composition principally made of water and carbon born in Saint Lawrence valley 22 years ago. I look forward to get to know everything I can about the World and its social creatures. My curiosity push me in the direction of experiences, people, and adventures. I like to be in new environments, to interact with amazing people and peoples, to breathe air form far away, to look at the sun from a new perspective.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The touristic economy makes me sick. I want to reach people as they are, from where and how they really live, how they see their space and their place. I also like to make close friendships with awsome people from the other side of the river and beyond.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music : Big fan of rock alternative, I listen to a variety of Quebec music, 1960's, 70's, 80's and 90's pop and rock. I am a huge fan of good lyrics.

Movies : Direct cinema such as the NFB french classics. And every Pierre Perreault movie.

Books : Mostly french literature classics from 19th and 20th century and non-fiction about politics, geography, history and people's struggles in general. And Élisée Reclus. Élisée Reclus combine all of this.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's difficult to prioritize every amazing things I did during my short lifetime. I would like to come to the subject while I discuss with people. But for now, the only thing I have in mind is the last big one. This summer, as an undergrad student, I had the chance to work with a reaserch team on a paleoenvironment project in James Bay area. I went for two whole weeks to work to the northern limit of the boreal forest, without any phone and electricity. Being at the upstream of knowlage, as well as experiencing a complete new environment with new people, was very special. Also, to be in constant contact with such wild nature was unforgettable.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a large curiosity for everything. I just like to learn from people, try new experiences, and teach by chatting and chilling around.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to meet new people and chat of everything. I usually like to take care of hosts as much as they took care of me.
