Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I would like to meet new people in Bury St Edmunds, as it is the town where I will live for a while! I am also currently looking for a place to stay at while I am househunting in Bury.
Music, Movies, and Books
Here's a (short) list of my favourite films: Pulp Fiction The perks of being a wallflower Call me by your name The place beyond the pines LaLaLand Begin Again About Time De rouille et d'os ... I can't figure out what's my favourite song because I love so many genres, I guess I have at least two favourite songs for each genre... One of my favourite books in French is L'élégance du hérisson by Muriel Barbery; in English it's The Handmaid's Tale (and, well, the Harry Potter series, of course).
Teach, Learn, Share
I think you can learn a lot from strangers by simply talking to them, exchanging ideas, trying to know them! I love learning about different cultures and countries, and I am quite pleased when people show interest for my own culture. I'm not a chef but I can cook so I'd be happy to share French recipes.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Culture, life experiences, recipes... Anything!
