About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Keep discovering

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going French girl who tries to be funny. I'm not really organized in my personal life and I hate when things are fully planned. A bit of mess is necessary to my equilibrium. So, do not contact me too much in advance if you want me to host you. Usually, I can't tell what I'm going to do with more than 2 weeks of anticipation.

I'm fascinated by travelling, but especially Africa and Latin America. I lived in Mexico for a year, and I went several times to Western Africa.

PHILOSOPHY

A life is not enough to see, learn, discover everything we should.

I love meeting new people. I start chatting with strangers on trains, at the theatre, in shops, bars... Everyone has usually something to share, at least for a few minutes.

I'm trying to find my own definition of happiness.

* They didn't know it was impossible... so they did it. *

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted people from many countries, in the various places I lived in. They were all great human experiences.

I hosted and I have been hosted by too many people to list them here but I keep in mind strong memories of generous, curious and open-minded people.

I attended CS meetings in France and Mexico. My most incredible couchsurfing experience so far is definitely with the community of Mexico City: a bunch of smart and funny people.

Interests

Meeting new people is usually my main interest. Also, I make videos and it's gradually taking a lot space in my life.

I enjoy diverse kind of music (from french songs, to classical musical, folk, jazz, dub, electro), I like having cultural life and following international politics.

I'd like to know and try to understand what's happening in the world (hard job), and contribute to change it a little bit (even harder).

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't feel like listing my last movies, books or song, but I'm curious about what you're watching, listening to or reading.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked in the bush in Burkina under the rain, then saw children screaming and crying because I was white. I celebrated my 20 years old birthday in summer time (even if I was born in February) in Uruguay. I walked on the Great Wall and had a dinner in the streets in Bejing without understanding what I was eating. I went on a taxi-motorbike in Lomé I got super scared (actually several, but I was scared all the time).

But above all meeting wonderful people in all the place I had the opportunity to visit.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach? I can teach some words of French. I love cooking so we could cook together and share some tips.
I can also teach some basics of video-making and editing.

Learn? I'll always have new things to learn. I'd like to learn the guitar, arabic, and more about photography.

Share? That's why I'm here for :)
