Hi everyone, my name is Camille, I am 27 years old, I am a Franco-Vietnamese rap artist, I perform under the name of George Ka. I frequently travel alone with my bike, I am passionate about literature, cinema, music, and rockclimbing. I enjoy cooking for my hosts, having a long chat, playing with the children and telling them stories. I speak French, English, German, Spanish, and a little bit of Vietnamese!

I have been living mostly in Paris, but also in Saigon and Santiago de Chile for a while.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy connecting randomly with openminded and caring people, I met wonderful hosts in Latin America while hitch hiking down to Patagonia, and am looking forward to hosting travellers too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I no longer take planes, so my last adventures happened closer to my home :)
- I biked on my own from the center of France to the ocean for 5 days, sleeping by strangers met on CS or on WarmShowers
- I hitchhiked my way to the South of France from Paris with a microphone, recording the stories people were eager to share with me on the way. Was camping on my own or sleeping by the persons who were picking me up!
