About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get inspired by people

ABOUT ME

Thanks for finding me among these millions of friendly Couchsurfers!

"L'Auberge espagnole" is the film which, when I was teenager, turned my vision of the life upside down. I knew that one day, after hight school, I will embrace adventure. I studied, worked and travelled crossing my little part of the world.

Today, I like to combine cultures, speak a mix of English, French and Spanish with friends or unknows, practise CS.
Improving English at the moment and would love to meet natives English speakers who can practice the language with me.

I have an interest in fashion, decoration, current trends, I am also keen on DIY and photography. I went through a Master in communication/marketing and work as communications officer for a compagny specialized in flowers wrapping and decoration accessories.

People say I'm positive and happy all the time. I think I am ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I do think this is a community. When I stay at someone’s place or accept a guest at mine, I take my time to consult the profiles and see if they matched.
Please, avoid contacting me with an impersonal message you could send to 10.000 others couchsurfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Currently, I cannot host people because I am doing renovation works in my apartment.
Nevertheless, I love to try new things and meet new people. CS has afforded me the opportunity to do this on an international stage and will always be indebted to pay forward the gifts people have shared with me.

If you plan to come in Lille, I can show you the city and give you advice to experience the City to its fullest. When I am traveling abroad, I would also meet people from the place I visit.

I started to host couchsurfers with my roomie when I was living in Paris. I have had good time ! Then, I spent a year traveling in Australia, and enjoying meeting people while I was at their place.
After that, I’ve been back in France again, starting to work, living in Lille with my friend. Sharing and meeting people, that's still the type of experience I would like to continue to have.
