Why I'm on Couchsurfing
After extensive travelling and living various experiences, Couchsurfing is a new one to try! And what a better way to discover a city and a culture than with the people who live here ? Many friends have been giving great feedback on their Couchsurfing nights, so here i am to be part of that large network and meet international travellers !
Music, Movies, and Books
The Harry Potter books have shaped my childhood, Simple Plan sang all the perfect words for my teenage life, Edith Piaf & Jean-Jacques Goldman are the highlights of my French playlist (and will always be), "Into the Wild" inspires me, the FRIENDS serie still makes me laugh, and i recommend the movies "Pride" and "Alabama Monroe", among others.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Keeping close relationships with Family & Friends over the years without being in the same place (city/country/continent) more than 6 months (HURRAY to us again guys!)
Teach, Learn, Share
Taking care of 3 kids, I now know most of the Wiggles songs, how to make veggies & fruits attractive by cooking basic meals, and I know a lot about Disney characters (ok, this last one was true even before working with kids).
What I Can Share With Hosts
Can speak for hours about the world, how to pack lightly, tips on how to live in an hostel for 6 months, and confirm/deny rumors about red-haired people.
My Interests
The 7 F wonders : Friends, Foreign (cultures, lanscapes, languages...), Family, Food, Fun, Fantasy and (the glass is always) Full !
