Hello! I am a French exchange student and I am currently studying at Princeton University. The uni is great but I want to get out the "orange bubble"!

I am a bookworm (don't let me in a bookstore!) and I love to speak about literature no matter the country and the type. I love also dancing, cooking, baking (and eating as well), going to museums, listening to music and walking (when I travel I can spend the whole day walking in the place I'm discovering). And on a family level, I enjoy spending my time saying silly things with my brother (this includes saying our favorite movies' lines).

I'm keen on foreign languages as well: I've started Chinese at Princeton. I've also had one year of Russian but I'm afraid I've forgotten everything... I've also studied a bit of Italian at high school.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I want to share, meet new people and see what's behind the tourist guide. Places, buildings, museums, parks ... are worth seeing but I want also to meet the people inhabiting them and living there.

Algo increíble que he hecho

When I went to Denmark, I swam in the Baltic sea nearly all day long: try it!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach you French of course. I'll show you how to make French brioche (my grandmother's recipe) and many other dishes. I'm more than willing to talk about France and about Auvergne, my native region (which, by the way, was ranked among the 10 top regions to visit in the world). And I can describe my experience as an exchange and Princeton student (lots of funny things I promise).

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

If you want to talk to me about your country, habits, lifestyles, food, I'll take it! I will enjoy seeing the places tourists usually don't. If you are less "social" and want more free space I'm also ok with that.
And of course if you wish to speak about literature, history or any other topic I'm in.
