About me
I'm born in Quebec city (Canada) and lived in a rural county (Portneuf) in the moutainous outskirt of Quebec city all my childhood, basically starting to hitch when I was missing the yellow bus to school at about 13yo. Hitching in your localities where everyone knew everyone was most likely easy.
I studied in Sherbrooke by the Vermont State Border, before crossing the pond to live in Belgium to complete my studies and currently living in England (Poole / Dorset) where I hitched already a couple of time to London or back to the continent.
