About Me

I am a student in languages and I would like to be a French teacher for foreigners.
I am actually doing an internship in Lviv as a French teacher.
I was for 2 months in Thailand as a volunteer and I taught English for children.
Now I want to take any opportunity to travel again because travelling is the best way to get richer ;)

I am open-minded, social, hard-working and I am always smiling :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Most recently I lived in Thailand in host families. I was there as a volunteer English teacher. The best thing by living with local people is that I discover their culture and places that are unknown for tourists.

So I want to continue to discover places and its people by having a real contact with inhabitants !

I recently lived for 7 months close to Frankfurt in Germany. I taught French at school and this experience was wonderful.
I also visited so much places during my weekends and sometimes I was hosted and I could host people by CS too.
It was the best way to learn more about the german culture and to have new friends from all around the world !

I love to talk about travelling and to discover new things!
I would like to share with you my experiences in France and abroad and I would like to understand more the world and its variety with you.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived 2 months in Thailand as a English teacher volunteer and I gave a bath of mud to elephants in Chiang Mai.

I lived 7 months in Germany (close to Frankfurt Am Main) and I taught French at school.

I went for 2 months in South Africa and I lived in a south african family. I followed school and I went to church every week.

In these experiences I learnt a lot and by discovering another and very different culture, it changed my opinion on life.
I think the better way to understand a country and a culture is to talk with inhabitants!

Teach, Learn, Share

To teach: French language or English
