CURRENT MISSION

After six months teaching salsa in China, I'm taking two months to travel around Asia, discover new places and dance with as many new people as I can!

ABOUT ME

I'm a citizen of the world, as cliché as that may sound. Born in Ukraine, I grew up in Belgium and am definitely French in my heart, with no real ties anywhere, ready and eager to explore new people and cultures. That's why I chose bar-tending as a job, to be able to do it anywhere, and always meet new people. But for the last few years, the one passion that really motivates me is dance : salsa, bachata, kizomba, zouk, merengue,... I never feel as much alive as on that dancefloor, sharing a dance and a smile with my partner.

PHILOSOPHY

Happy? Great, it's the perfect mood to dance! Sad? Then it definitely is time for a dance to get out of it.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Paris is a tough city, I've always lived in tiny appartements, so I only host friends for the moment as we usually have to sleep in the same bed. I'll definitely be sharing my couch as soon as I get into someplace bigger, though!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In my childhood, I was used to sleeping around in friends' or family's homes when I travelled, and this thus feels very natural to me. I've had only one CS experience so far, a few years ago that went very well in the south of France.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Organising the Paris International Salsa Congress is a new and bigger challenge every year, but it's absolutely worth it to see so many people get together to have the best time of their lives!

教，学，和分享

Salsa dancing is my passion, and the only thing I enjoy as much as dancing is sharing that fire with other people and teaching those that want to learn to the extent of my abilities!
