Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None for the moment.

Interests

I have a deep passion for art and culture (literature, theater, cinema). I practice a bit watercolours and drawing.

I aslo have a particular interest for Japan (but I am not an otaku).

Finally, I love food, gastronomy and all these kind of things. I am pretty interested in discover new tastes and dishes.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach:
Sometimes, it's quite difficult to visit and introduce our own town to people from abroad. And I must confess I don't know so much historical facts about Toulouse... But I know some great places! And I will be pleased to share with you all what I know about.
I also can teach some French, but I am not very pedagogue and it could be fun!

Learn:
I can learn everything, I am quite open-minded.

Share:
It is why I am here!
