CURRENT MISSION

Connaître Vienne !

ABOUT ME

I love travelling, and at the moment I need to stay in Montreal for many reasons. With CS I feel that I can travel a little bit by inviting people to sleep on my couch! How convinant !

I'm a flute player, I will finish my doctorate in performance in couple of months. I also work full time and I am a compulsive reader. No rest for the wicked.

PHILOSOPHY

Il faut donner sans demander en retour. La vie se chargera d'équilibrer les choses par la suite.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can host people on my couch in Montreal whenever I'm in Montreal! I'm also using CS when I'm travelling, it's the best way to meet new people!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was hosted in Germany and in France, and since September 2011, I've been hosted some people too in Montreal.
Since 2012, I'm not travelling, but I hosted people in Montreal that made me travel! Thanks to them I didn't go crazy!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Au Domaine Forget à Ste-Irénée au Québec. Il y avait un couché de soleil, je prenais des photos. C'était à la fin d'un stage de deux semaines et presque tous les flûtistes étaient partis. Je marchais et j'ai entendu quelqu'un jouer la sonate de Bach pour flûte BWV 1034, le 3ème mouvement. Je n'ai pu que m'asseoir et apprécier ce moment. Ce fut le plus beau Bach que j'ai entendu de toute ma vie. Le flûtiste est toujours un bon ami que j'admire incroyablement.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to speak French, how to play the flute, what is modern classical music and why people how playing it, and how to cook vegetarian food around Christmas time!
