CURRENT MISSION

To figure out how to contribute to a better planet, to keep living in the moment , and to keep exploring the world

ABOUT ME

I'm reallly easy going. I've lived in France, the US, and I go to University in Montreal, Canada. I love meeting new people and learning from them...I love partying, the outdoors, creating, exploring the city and trying anything new!

PHILOSOPHY

Tolerance and to follow these words: "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, red wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming WOO HOO what a ride!" -unknown

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have two couches but they're not huge. Otherwise I have an inflatable mattress that I'd have to figure out how to pump.

I can also meet people who want to have coffee/beer and see some of montreal as long as I am not overloaded with school/ work.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For me, it's the smallest experiences that are the most amazing. I have slept outside on a bed that a generous family in Xinjiang, China brought out from their house for us because they didn't want us to be too hot. We slept in a real bed under the stars. I also slept on a part of the Great Wall that was closed to tourism.

I took a 45 hour train from Beijing to Xinjiang in which my sister and I did not have a seat. We were sitting in the isle for 40 of those 45 hours...that means no sleep since we had to get up every time someone needed to go to the bathroom. We met some amazing people that trip.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm learning how to do poi. I already know some moves that I could teach but I'd also like to learn more!
I also want to learn the guitar. I can teach people French, English or Spanish, or just help them practice. I can teach people who don't know much about being a vegetarian how to cook yummy vegertarian meals to end the typical question: "but what do you eat if you don't eat meat" ;)
