About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Better knowing the Earth and People who live on it, including myself

ABOUT ME

Bonjour ! I am a smiling, sometimes crazy French girl aiming to travel while working and volunteering in the Middle East and the whole world. I love dancing, hiking, literature and the poetry of this world. I don't want more than sitting in the midst of nature, admiring the sunset with (new) friends, and knowing that I have all the night to live, and the day after.

PHILOSOPHY

You never know. Life is beautiful.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I go visit or live in a new place I start by looking for local host to introduce me to their city and country. I hope one day I will be able to do the same for world travellers where/if I settle.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I went to Beirut to work for 6 months I decided to start with couchsurfing - and it was the best experience I've had, best choice I made to meet wonderful people, and travel around the city and the country. My 2 weeks trip in Iran was only through couchsurfing and again allowed me to meet with the greatest persons while discovering this country through their eyes.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all music - above all Beirut, Michel Gondry's work, the poetic writing of Boris Vian

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking in Yosemite definitely is one of my favorite memories, I will always remember the cascades, the grandiose nature, this feeling of infinite peace. Another intense and unforgetable experience was spending the night on top of a mountain in Lebanon, admiring the shooting stars full sky while listening to Piazolla.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn more from you.
I love to learn new languages and I can teach French. I like sharing dance moves too!
