Description

Hi!
I have read so much about adventures and travel, now it's the time for me. I have already traveled a lot (Europe, South and North America) but I don't want to be just a tourist anymore. I want to live within other rythms, sounds, views, perspectives. I study literature, I write poetry (in french), and there is so much beauty I want to see before continuing writing. So what motivates me, I would say, is to discover and live new experiences, to learn from others and to create friendship and memories that will nourish me most of all as a human being and I hope maybe too as a writer.
Reading and writing in beautiful places in the sun or with someone I appreciate, that is always for me the way to pure happiness.

More details about my language interests
I am from the french part of Canada, called Quebec. So it's my maternal language. I have learned english at school and I watch Tv only in english. I use it a lot at my jobs and while traveling, but it is not perfect. I am also Mexican so I speak spanish with my family and I have taken a few classes to improve my skills but I still have a lot to learn. I like to read in spanish. And this year I am learning italian so I have really basics skills but I would like very much to improve it. I have a degree in french literature so I love to talk and teach about this language I find so complex and interesting. I'd love to share it with other.

More details about your skills

I have worked in a lot of places with a lot of people. Sometimes with the public (restaurants, cafes and bookstores) but I have worked for a long time with kids in summer camps. The one I have been the longest was in a farm. I did there a lot of gardening tasks with the kids or maintenance tasks. I also have an artistic sensibility, I have organised a few writing/drawing workshops.
I am good at precise and manuals jobs, from sewing to painting walls, and I also have a lot of initiative and creativity. I like cleaning too, it's a bit like meditation for me.

What else ...

I am traveling for a year in Europe and I have so much faith that it will be one of the most beautiful challenge I will live. I dream about all the interesting people I will meet along the way, the unique places I will have the chance to access and the little moments where I will feel the magic I am looking for. I am a hard worker and a simple person, I think I am easy to get along. People around me describe me as calm and sensitive, but also curious and invested. I don't take a lot of place but I like to make a difference. Sharing is so important for me, as much as respect. I really believe in taking the time and the chance to see what it feels like to takes risks, ones that will make you grow and live differently after.
Finally, I love animals, I have a cat named Pablo Neruda (like the poet), I do yoga daily and I play the ukulele!
