About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make my life a grand adventure.

ABOUT ME

I am a writer -- poet, to be exact. I have a wonderful boyfriend, Nico, who steadies me on a sometimes bumpy ride through life. I love cheese and eat it frequently -- otherwise, vegetarian.

Nico is a former goalkeeper for Switzerland's soccer team. He is really really tall and I am really really small. He's the perfect combination of silly and serious and I love him with all my heart.

PHILOSOPHY

I am. I am. I am.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to participate both by hosting and being hosted... and being involved an interesting, unconventional and positive cultural exchanges.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had a man named Martin from the Czech Republic sleep in my living room. He knew not a word of English and, at the end of his stay, gave me banana flavored chocolate.

Interests

Writing and reading: Marquez, Plath, Lester Bangs... the list goes on! Vegetarianism and its counterparts.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a former and experienced English teacher and am happy to share what I know. Also, I have a serious backlog of vegetarian and vegan recipes to share.

Someone help me improve my spoken French? :)
