Passionate about travel and its organization from an early age, I have been working in the tourism industry since 2005. After working in England, Australia, and France, I decided to settle in Montreal where I had the chance to join the dynamic team at Authentik Canada. I am known for being attentive to my clients and for being able to accurately target their needs. Their satisfaction is a true measure of success for me. It will be my pleasure to use my expertise and knowledge of the country to organize the trip of your dreams! Do not hesitate to contact me =)

My Picks and Travel Tips

What is my favorite destination in Canada?

My favorite destination in Canada is the Charlevoix region. With its charming small villages, sea and mountain landscapes, and steep cliffs, the region offers a multitude of activities in summer (outdoor and nautical activities) as well as in winter (skiing, snowshoeing, dog sledding...). I also love the variety of local products that can be found, in fact, Charlevoix is considered as the gastronomic region of Quebec! You will always be warmly welcomed there, the inhabitants are friendly and warm!

A tip for your trip here

Given the notable differences between French and Quebec French, I advise you to familiarize yourself with Quebec French before you leave! You will find all the differences between French from France and Quebec French on the internet!

What is my favorite season in Canada?

Although all seasons are suitable for visiting Canada, my favorite season is summer. This season lends itself well to outdoor and nautical activities... In Canada, the seasons are very distinct, whether you come in summer, spring, winter, or fall, you will always feel like you are in a different country so much does nature change with the seasons.

What souvenir to bring back from your trip here?

You can bring back local products that will always be very much appreciated by the people you offer them to: microbrewery beers, ice cider, a regional jam, blueberries in chocolate from Lac St-Jean...

Don't forget to pack in your luggage:

For Canada and the United States, do not forget your 110-volt power adapter to be able to recharge your electronic devices: camera, laptop...

What is my dream trip?

I would very much like to visit Indonesia, as this destination offers numerous cultural attractions, lush vegetation (volcanic mountains, jungles, idyllic beaches) and diverse wildlife.
