About Me

ABOUT ME
Mummy with two kiddies Titouan 10yrs old and Cléo 8yrs old.
Origin: Yvelines, France, studies in Europe and Mexico. Initial profesional experience in the field in Cambodia.
Settled in Geneva since 2007.
Spent a year off traveling altogether (+volunteering) in 2017/2018 to explore our vast Mother Earth and locals!
No flat mate for the moment so may host couchsurfers

PHILOSOPHY
Happiness and successes are more tasty when shared and developed as a team! Inclusive, whoops culture, a bit of foolishness too. Empathy and Empowerment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Spirit of our family: "Une maison du bonheur n'est rien sans hotes", confirmed with learnings from experiences abroad: "Mi casa es su casa"

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Have had lovely time with couchsurfers and more generally visits are almost at a continuous pace at our place.
Similarly we met lovely people and learnt so much as we were on our journey around the World two years ago.
So grateful!

Interests

We love art and cultural insights. We practice sports (from table tennis to randonnee skiing, trekking, climbing, yoga, urban biking, scuba diving, lake swimming...)
We also enjoy spending time with people and have a strong interest for reportage/portrait interviews/photography and human experiences
We love cooking, playing cards (Coinche/Jass), discovering new books, music, meals and cocktails, new destinations, new arts, new ways of seeing life...

Kids love short movies from all around the World plus classic Disneys
Music: Erykah Badu, Beat Assaillants, Feist, Gilles Peterson, Mr. Scruff, Isaac Eyes, Bobby Womack...
Books: Kids love comic books and I like fictions with historical insights such as the ones wrote by Amin Maalouf, Alessandro Baricco...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumping into the sea with whales, a night walk in the Amazon forest or skyDivinnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggggg!!! (So frighting)
But strong sensations too in the mountains every weekend - such a beautiful World we are living in...
Oh and... giving birth naturally in a pool was also a thing!

Teach, Learn, Share

We can teach how to play cards: coinche/yass, play board games, how to make sushis or maracons (Although we would need to practice again) or if weather allows float down the river or go on a via ferrata or urban ride...
We can share BD/books/movies/music/meals
Happy to learn about stars, countries, healing, massages, tips and tricks with kids...
