About Me

CURRENT MISSION

take off with my business project + share my extensive travel experiences with others.

ABOUT ME

Hiya and welcome to my page!

I'm a business grad student originally from Montreal, Canada. I currently live and work happily in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. It's definitely a different experience and I am enjoying it quite well. I travel extensively for work (sometimes up to 100 hours of flying time a month), but I'm very proud of the destinations I've visited.

Got tired entering in all of the destinations, so I will continue updating as I log on.

My friends call me Google, as I seem to be a total know-it-all. But my favorite past time is reading up on everything and I tend to absorb all info like a sponge.

I'm really easy-going, fair, genuine, and simple. I'm hard-working, a go-getter, fun, bubbly, and very entertaining (say many new friends). Hope the chance to meet you.

PHILOSOPHY

My drive revolves around this quote:

ALCHEMY is defined as a magical process of transforming a common substance, usually of little value, into a substance of great. A gifted artist can take liquid color and magically transform it into something priceless. A brilliant scientist can blend a variety of chemicals and other elements and transform them into the cure for a horrible disease. And you - whether you are an artist or a scientist or neither of these - have the power in you to transform a dream into a miracle. Believe and you now hold the tools to achieve.

I'm very simple; smile, be a natural and it's golden.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will be opening up my couch to people when I move out of work accommodation this year - a little bit of patience and you'd be welcome to visit me in Dubai :)

Meanwhile, I'm not fussy and do not expect anything more than a simple place to crash.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm brand new to this- so go easy on me!

Interests

Beach culture, fitness, running, cooking, horseback riding, wine, dinners with friends, cinema, music fests.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ages and ages and ages ago, I sang in front of a stadium with 15000 people. hehehe

Teach, Learn, Share

You can learn a lot from people who have experienced all of the hits life has offered them. The key really is to experience everything - never doubt yourself. Leaving friens and family to take up that the job in Dubai was one of the hardest things to do; but in the end the amount of positives traveling and experiencing new things has brought into my life is astounding.
