About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finish my studies and start traveling all around the world with my job...

ABOUT ME

Hi guys!

My friends say of me that I'm a very open-minded person! I always look for new experiences and I love to discover new cultures.

In my university, I'm a member of an association who takes care of the Erasmus students. I love my association because each semester, I get to know students from all around the world. I try to teach them a lot from my culture and I tend to show them the best sides of Paris. However, I learn a lot from them too and this share is what I find the most beautiful in this experience.

PHILOSOPHY

I'd rather get a job very low paid but being happy when I go to work, instead of earning millions with my job but sick of waking up every morning thinking about the end of the day.

As Confucius said : "Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to show around the nice places I know, have some drinks with the couchsurfers I meet and talk about a lot a different topics!

I've never hosted someone yet because I've just moved out from my family home. But now, I feel ready to start as soon as I get a couch (or a mattress, a flying carpet, a trampoline or anything where you could sleep well on.)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before surfing couches, I started to meet couchsurfers for drinks, walks, etc. In Paris, I met my first Couchsurfer, Valerio, an Italian cool guy. I showed him one one my favorite districts of Paris : Montmartre. We spent a really nice time together!
Then, via CS events in London in 2012, I met awesome people I won't forget. We went around the city, went in many pubs, did some picnics in Hydepark many times, and even played football together!

From this moment, I realized how big and interesting the CS community is, and decided to go further with CS.

In November 2013, a friend and I decided to go to the Netherlands (Rotterdam and Amsterdam) but only with Couchsurfing. We found two lovely hosts, who made this travel unique! I'm still so grateful towards them.

Now I'm waiting to get a mattress so I could host surfers as well in Münster!

Interests

TRAVELING might be number ONE. I have one big dream since I'm little : go all around the world with someone and with one backpack.

I do watch a lot of documentaries about countries, cultures, tribes, etc. And they make me want to travel even more!

Then, hanging out with my friends is one of my favorite activities I guess.

My association is also one of my priorities (after my studies of course)

But I also love to ride bike (that's why I love Münster so much!), shopping,(only if I have money, if not, shopping is a torture) and last but not least, watching stupid american series.

I enjoy politics a lot, especially French politics because they tend to be quite funny sometimes. I like to go to political and geopolitical conferences in my Uni, in other to understand what the hell our governments are doing with our world.
