Hello CouchSurfing 👋. My name is Vivien, aged 31.
Originally from France, I've spent my entire life in the suburbs of Paris and currently reside in the city itself so you can imagine me with a French accent
Always wearing a smile, I have a penchant for all things geeky, particularly in the realms of computer science and aerospace, while remaining open-minded and sociable.
My dream is to travel around the world before I turn 40

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Following a bit of a midlife crisis in my thirties, I'm seeking to break out of my comfort zone and travel the world, aiming for authentic local experiences.
Meeting new people and learning about different cultures is what drives me.
It might sound cliché, but life is short, and it's important to seize the moment while we have our health and live without regrets :)

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I have a strong musical preference for all kinds of rock and indie chill, but I enjoy all genres of music, whether it's electro, rap, classical, jazz, and so on.
As for movies and series, some that come to mind are Inception, Interstellar, Breaking Bad, and Mr. Robot.
However, I'm not much of a reader

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

At the age of 30, I tried my first solo adventure, traveling to Sweden and Norway. I started from the southern tip of Sweden in Stockholm and made my way up to Tromso, using a combination of planes, buses, trains, and ferries. Along the way, I created unforgettable memories, with a special fondness for the Lofoten Islands. Nestled in a breathtaking landscape of mountains and sea, seemingly lost at the edge of the world and in my thoughts.
Solo travel turned out to be surprisingly positive for me. However, I did find myself missing the warmth of face-to-face interactions. That's why I decided to join Couchsurfing, to fill that void and connect with people during my travels :)

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

Among my friends and family, I'm the go-to person for advice or help with fixing their computers, printers, phones, TVs, and so on, basically anything tech-related lol. So I can teach you programming or exploring advanced uses of your devices for example.
I wish I could share my knowledge in piano with you, although I must admit, I'm a beginner and still learning haha

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I'm also up for philosophical discussions on a wide range of topics, where we can explore the intricacies of life and existence. It's always fascinating to dive into deep conversations and exchange ideas.
Of course, I know I'm not in a hotel, so I won't just be sitting there staring at you.
And naturally, if you're up for it, we can share a drink too !
