Hello!
I am a French citizen passionate about travelling, having studied abroad in Spain, the United Kingdom, Canada, Mexico and Hong Kong. I speak fluently French, English and Spanish and am on my way of obtaining a Bachelors of Arts in Philosophy, Politics and Economics at King's College London. Aside from my studies, I have a strong interest in health, sport and culture. I volunteer in a french NGO aimed at improving wellbeing, and am a Fist Aider in London for St John Ambulance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is my first time on Couchsurfing. A friend of mine recommended me this website when I told her I am planning a trip to Japan. I wish to meet people from different horizons and immerse myself in a different culture. I would love to share a meal with you, visit a museum, go hiking, exchange our thoughts and experiences with respect of our common humanity.

Music, Movies, and Books

As part of my studies and because of personal interest, I have read quite a few classics in Philosophy, Politics, Economics and International Relations. I am also a fan of Spanish and Latin american literature, my favourite authors being Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Isabel Allende and Juan Rulfo. My latest readings have been related to Human Relations and Psychology. I am reading right now Emotional Intelligence by D. Goleman and Thinking Fast and Slow by D. Khaneman.

As for movies, I am pretty sure I have seen every single good French comedy, which makes it very hard to find new ones. I love historical/action/comedy/thriller/scifi movies, with a special taste for epic historical drama such as Braveheart, Gladiator and The Last of the Mohicans.

In terms of music, my tastes have varied throughout my adolescence, ranging from hard rock and metal to pop, jazz and even classical (movie soundtracks especially).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am most proud of creating a student association dedicated to improve wellbeing through culture, more specifically by drawing life lessons from different disciplines. This project is very new as the society just got ratified last June. With a group of KCL students we are currently working on a series of events for early September.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have taught French and Economics as a tutor and am happy to share this knowledge with others. I would love to discuss about philosophy, culture, sport, art, French culture, Europe, my experiences studying abroad. I wish to learn about your culture, your experiences, your thoughts.
