One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling to Norway and watching the sun set on Dovrehill, an upper place among the mountains. It was truly beautiful and breathtaking.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’ve studied Physics and Maths in high school and for one year after I graduated so I can help you with calculus and gravity, or maybe just give you the love of science! I’m particularly fond of astronomy and I own a telescope which you can use as much as you want. Now I study Philosophy as well as Litterature, History and Languages so if any of these appeals to you we can talk about it & teach each other for hours! I’ll be happy to make you discover French litterature which I love, especially poetry. I speak French, Spanish and Catalan so I can teach any of these languages... maybe all of them if you stay for a while! Finally, I can teach you to play the piano or the guitar.
All the subjects I love to talk about are incredibly vast and if you have knowledge about any of them I’ll be delighted for you to teach me about them. I can never be tired of learning and I am curious about truly anything. There are some things I’m especially interested in though: I love languages (please talk to me in Italian, German or Russian), science... If you’re a good cooker I’d like you to teach me - as well as help me with it if you stay for a while.
We can share a meal, and a long guided-by-me walk in Paris! I’ll be also happy to take you to the best places to have fun, party or have a drink, or just to see some of the numerous breathtaking views that Paris has.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can make you visit Paris and its surroundings which I’ve known since I was 5. We can also play the piano together and share French meals - or sushi, it’s up to you!
