Overview
About Me
Bonjour !
I am an architect, interested in people and what could be their own experience of life. I love travelling, alone or with friends. I like to share who I am and bring maybe something different to other people. But what is really important for me is to always learn how to move forward in life thanks to other people and new experiences. I believe that every human being has something precious to bring and share in this world.
Sustainability and health of the Earth have become a very important concern to me. Thus I am changing little by little my everyday life habits in order to produce less garbage and to be part of an ecological system.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Since I had travelled couple of times alone around Europe I am now eager to discover more diverse cultures and to share true moments with people :)
I think that meeting locals when you are travelling is the best experience !
Interests
During my spare time I do paint and carve wood. My long term goal is to spend all my time doing art ;)
I’m also a big jazz music fan, and I used to play the flute and the piano. Some of my other hobbies are swimming and cycling. Moreover I’m fond of architecture and landscapes, and always curious to discover something I didn’t know before :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
*I travelled by hitchhiking alone in Scotland last summer. It was my first time hitchhiking alone on such long distances. Not knowing where you’re going to sleep, who you’re going to meet and if you’re going to reach your destination was a thrilling experience!
I only had a backpack and a tent. My adventure was so full of surprises, and it was greater than I could have guessed.
The main goal was to push my limits a bit further, and I was happy to achieve it !
*Before this trip, the same year, I did some wwoofing in the South of France and in Portugal: loved it ! I learned a lot, especially about farming, and it was a great way to travel and discover a new region from deep inside, thanks to the people who live there in an alternative way.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm always eager to learn new words from foreign langages, it's so much fun ! I also like to learn about local cuisine, customs.... Of course I would be delighted if you want to share with me one of your personnal skills.
I can teach you a bit of French language, architectural knowledge, drawings and a bit of music.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can for sure share my sensitivity with you. I am a good listener and I love to share simple things like having nice conversations, cooking together, walking, singing and dancing...
