CURRENT MISSION

Take part in creating strong and divers communities to protect nature and human societies against the greed which is consuming both. Learn from my mistakes and keep up the fight to free myself from mental slavery.

ABOUT ME

I am a 37 years old girl, learnt Spanish in Argentina and French in Belgium, grew up in France. I have studied and worked in Montréal, Martinique, Colombia, Edmonton and Yokohama. Science has been my best passport so far. I'd like to keep meeting the world while settling down at home (in a couple of months). Before leaving Japan, I will do a little travelling around Asia.

PHILOSOPHY

My favourite activity is talking passionately about anything and everything. Reading, travelling, learning, just to share my impressions.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couch surfing is new to me. I am presently living in a student facility but in a couple of months I'll be back in the beautiful city of Rouen (France) and be very happy to have guests from all over the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Travelled many places visiting friends but never before met in the internet!

Intereses

Cooking, singing and dancing. Meeting people (to sing and dance after a good home made meal). Explore nature and human societies. Walk, walk and walk. In cities, mountains and forests all around the world.
