About Me

I am honest and spontaneous, I like to talk and laugh, I'm a very easy going. I am very open minded and eager to meet new people. Sharing life experience is something I really like to do.
Cooking/baking is one of the things I love doing! If I can doing with/for other people it is event better. So let's cook together!
I try to live my life freely, without unnecessary self-imposed restrictions and limitations. I am determined: when I undertake something, I do it wholeheartedly. I am a reliable person who you can count on and trust.
Another thing : I LOVE FOOD!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I surfed in Stockholm for 1 week, with 3 different hosts for 2 nights each, and it was a great experience!
I had the chance to meet wonderful hosts in several US cities, they made my trip even better!
I can't really host as I have a very small couch to offer so now I am just attending Couchsurfing event organised in Newcastle.

Interests

Cooking! Cooking for just yourself might not be fun, but cooking for other people is one of the many ways to share good memories. Being French, cooking is in our heritage, but I like to learn new dishes from other cultures.
Wine-tasting
Reading modern litterature.
Concerts & festivals. I am not a musician at all, but I like the atmosphere in concerts, I am a very good audience!
Meeting people, and talk!
I started knitting last year, I always thought it was an activity for grandmas but it turns out I was very proud when I finished my very own scarf!
Right now trying pilates and so far I like it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm still young, so I definitely feel like I have so much more to see!

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you some French, and show you some dishes!
If you want to know more about the pharmaceutical world I guess I could explain you how it works.

I am always up for learning some new dishes, how other people live in other countries, their habits, their customs.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will definitely share a meal and drinks, and travelling stories of course!
