About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring all the ways

ABOUT ME

I'm always seeking adventures, challenges and alternative living!
I spent last summer on my bike from Quebec city to Victoria, BC ( hitchhiked some of it ). 3 years ago, I went on my first solo trip. 6 months around the US using mostly CS for transportation and place to stay.

A small backpack, a camera and the people I meet on the road. It's all it takes to live my life to the fullest.

When I think about travel, besides challenging myself, it's really more about meeting new people. I'm interested to hear people's stories and be inspired by them!

I can seem shy at first, but it doesn't last long. I like joking around and laughing.

PHILOSOPHY

Be afraid but do it anyway.
Do what you love. Don't care about what people think.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For the moment, I want to travel. But when I'll settle down I'll be more than happy to welcome you at my place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met so many generous people while traveling. I was blown away! I just want to keep surfing the couch of new friends I haven't met yet!

Doing couchsurfing and meeting people was better than visiting the city itself!

Interests

I like taking pictures when I'm inspired.
I love filmmaking - I would love someday to make a documentary.
I love coffee - I'm a barista and I would love someday to open my own coffee shop.
I love design, fashion, photography, everything vintage.
I love being in nature, hiking and practicing yoga.
