~UPDATES~ Hi guys! I am currently unable to host due to my living situation, but I am still appearing in search results. Please do not send me any couch requests. Thanks! ________________________________________________ ~MY PROFILE~ ________________________________________________ Favourite methods of transport: four wheels and a thumb, two wheels and a saddle, or no wheels and a paddle Favourite times of day: a sunny winter morning or a breezy summer evening Favourite places to sleep: in the wild under the stars, gently rocking in a hammock, snuggled under lots of blankets and duvets—or all three at once Favourite things to watch or listen to: steel pans, flickering flames and shimmering shorelines, a chanting crowd, deep dramatic thunder and heavy rainfall (as long as I'm under something dry!) Favourite sensations: a deep meaningful hug, a hot and powerful shower, jumping into the sea on a baking hot day, taking shoes off after a long walk, the dreamy haze just before sleep, the first taste of an ice cream The impression someone gives you depends on where you both are in the world, and where you are in your lives. Sometimes these things align just right, and sometimes you miss the right moment to meet. So how I appear to you today will be different from tomorrow, or a week from now. The best way to find out about me is to meet me in person—so let's meet!
--◆ PLEASE READ MY PROFILE BEFORE SENDING A REQUEST It's very important to me, and since you're already reading this, why stopping now ? Also note that I don t use CS for dating purpose and will report messages or behaviour leading this way . There are a ton of dating apps and CS is not one . - I dont host man alone - I dont accept CS request if you havnt read my profile and showed me you did - I work during the week so only available at night That being said here I am : ) I am a 34 year-old French woman living mostly abroad but back in France for now . I am travelling in Turkey at the moment with my boyfriend Alex . He has never uses CS before. I discovered Couch Surfing when I was a student through my flat mates and we had the pleasure to meet quite awesome people from all over the world, hosting them in our crazy big flat in Lyon . In July 2016 I went on an amazing trip in Colombia and Peru where I did quite a lot of couchsurfing. I had the funniest weekend in Medellin walking around the city with my host, and in Peru speaking with my host up until late at night after a super fun Couchsurfing night in a local pub where I also met people who hosted me after . I guess what I like the most about Couch surfing appart from the obvious cultural exchange and opportunity to speak another language is the fact that you never know really who you are going to meet.. In my case it always ended up to be a very good surprise ( sometimes you actually get along with people you never thought you would have! ). With Couchsurfing you also end up in quite unexpected situation , eating amazing food and going to places you never thought you would have ( like a church in a cave in Columbia ) . Lately, and especially since I have started spending most of my time abroad I would like as much as possible to travel on a slower pace and with different transport ( my next trip will be with a bycicle and a tent ) and I believe Couchsurfing is also matching with this travel philosophy as you get to have the most authentic experience possible by being around local people.

CURRENT MISSION Motionless traveler for the time being! .... Hosting! Voyageur immobile pour le moment! .... Alors j'accueille pas mal! ABOUT ME I write first in french, then in english sometimes: see down! Je n'aime pas du tout ce type de description!!! alors allons y pour les clichés! Plutôt "bohème", je me crois éclectique mais en fait assez casanier (malgré mon abonnement àCourrier International par exemple)!!! J'ai beaucoup "arrangé" ce côté casanier grâce aux meetings d'Aix ou de Marseille par exemple, et au contact de tous mes accueillis! Je pratique le chant choral et l'expression théatrale/improvisation (ce sont des "grands mots"), par moment je passe beaucoup de temps àtorturer de vieux ordinateurs pour les ressusciter et les donner àqui veut (heureusement je suis capable de passer àautre chose aussi!); je suis la plupart du temps en retard d'une saison (d'une année, maintenant!!!) pour m'occuper de mon jardin (et pourtant j'ai des accès de "passion" pour celui-ci). Je partage ma maison avec l'occupante très indépendante (c'est une de mes nièce) d'un studio attenant, un(e) colocataire dans une chambre (actuellement une femme un peu plus jeune que moi et nouvelle couchsurfeuse: "mimi24") et pendant un an (2007/2008) j'ai accueilli un jeune thaïlandais de 17 ans scolarisé au lycée voisin. Un temps, il arrivait que si mes enfants venaient de Paris, Nice ou Aix, je m'organisais pour les loger dans les recoins (mezzanines ou canapé), désormais (en oct 2009), mon fils aîné s'est installé provisoirement quelques mois (mais peut-être déménagera-t-il comme le chat?...) et il prend en charge beaucoup des tâches pratiques de la maison du jardin etc. Ãâ¡Ã y est, je m'y suis mis: Here it is, I have made!!!! I dislike this type of description! Then let's go for the shots! I am a bit of drifter, I think I am eclectic but actually quite stay-at-home (despite my subscription to Courrier International, for example)! I practice the choral and theatrical expression / improvisation (they are "big words"), by the time I spend a lot of time torturing old computers to resurrect it and to give to anyone who wants them (fortunately I am able to spend on something else too!), I am most of the time late in a season to care for my garden (and yet I have access to "passion" for the latter). ______ see the "god version in french : I did'nt translate what follow!_________ I share my home with the occupying (it is one of my niece) an independent studio, a roommate (e) in a room (currently a Brazilian so busy that I see barely) and a young Thai 17 years is there for a school year, he learned the french very gradually. When my children come from Paris, Nice or Aix, I try to stay in the recesses (mezzanines or sofa) PHILOSOPHY la jeanpierrade ou jpritrerie ??? Je dis ça parce que je ne me sens pas d'une chapelle, et je ne sais pas affiner maintenant traduction anglaise à venir (j'ai la flemme maintenant)

CURRENT MISSION Find the way I want to live the world :) and enjoy life with people! ABOUT ME Today I decided to settled down for a while! Maybe! In 2011, after one year arround the world, I came back to my hometown, Aix en Provence, where I can enjoy all the things and people I love, then in 2013 I lived in Tahaa, in the middle of pacific ocean, french polynesia where I was technology teacher and film maker and I came back to Aix after more than two years! In 2018 I left again arround the world and came back to work in 2020! My friends are very important for me and of course all nature activities in Alps and country side,rock climbing, hikking, skiing, moutain biking... Well, Mediterranean sea is nearby, kite surfing, scuba diving and more! Aix en Provence is just perfect for me!

I’m a French scientist with a strong passion for travel, mountains and cultural encounters. I love discovering places through the people who live there rather than simply visiting them as a tourist. I’ve travelled quite a bit, but Nepal has a special place in my heart. After several trekking trips, I spent nine months immersed in the country and became particularly close to the Sherpa community. These experiences taught me that some of the best parts of travelling are the unexpected conversations, shared meals and friendships you never planned for. I’m curious, open-minded and always happy to exchange stories, discover new cultures, or simply share a coffee and a good conversation. I also enjoy music, science, hiking, spirituality and learning from people with different backgrounds. I joined Couchsurfing because I believe travelling is much more interesting when you connect with people rather than just places.
CURRENT MISSION Putting the best on earth ... NOT ABLE TO WELCOME TIL END 2026 PHILOSOPHY Respect, solidarity, putting people at the center
