About Me

CURRENT MISSION

il existe un oiseau qui ne s'arrete jamais de voler et s'endort dans le vent. Il ne se pose qu'une seule fois dans sa vie...

ABOUT ME

Ciao couchsurfers!

I joined the community many years ago, when I lived in France, in Lyon actually (very lovely and adorable city), but then I "dropped out" my profile and the page for different reasons. Now I've come back and, for the moment, just to socialize becuse I'm travelling and I don't have a permanent address yet.
After one year spent in Rome, such a huge, amazing and also hard city, I decided to leave with my boyfriend and travel to the west coast of USA. After that, we will see :)
What about me...I consider myself as a sociable and respectful person and I like to discover other people, other places, other ways of life... sharing experiences and ideas, thoughts, philosophical and political thoughts, knowledge. I'm also interested in envirenmental issues and so I started changing my diet and, event if I like to have fun, I reduce my consume to defend this planet.
What I am interested in is to find authentic and genuine spirit of place and people and do my best to give them the same!

PHILOSOPHY

Walking on the path to accept human contradictions and follow the flow

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a new couch surfer, I like the principle of sharing experiences and space with people from all over the world and make them discover a piece of the country we live. Sometimes it happens that we discover where we live thanks to the people we host, we can see our environment with other eyes and that's magical.

Interests

I'm a Gemini and interested in so many field, even if what makes me vibrate is to discover the infinite ways that life finds to keep going, from plants to animals and humans, and the magical connections all the beigns have.
