I think the first thing that comes to mind when people think of me is a short, lively, redhead! The second thing is most likely passionate! I think our life is meant to live surrounded by people we love and to do things that mean something to us, for which we are happy to wake up in the morning. I study philosophy because I am curious about our world and about how we are supposed to go about our lives. My family, my partner and my close friends mean the world to me and I like to take care of them. I like to cook and spend lots of time, after a nice day outdoors, chatting about life around a good bottle of wine. I am also a fan of spending time with animals, going for a walk with my horse on a sunny day has to be one of my favorites!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couch surfing because I think that traveling is meeting now people, understand how they live and letting them introduce you to their city, state or country. I think it is great if people can help each other discover the world (for cheap!) one couch at a time!

Interests

Aside from spending time with my partner and friends, I am a fan of climbing (rock mostly), I do daily yoga and meditation, I love hiking (in the Swiss Alps!) and skiing in the winter. Reading is also part of my daily life; philosophy during the day, good literature at night!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music is between old classic rock (Led Zeppelin, Beatles, Bowie, Simond & Garfunkel) and Jazz. A good jazz concert is always ranked high on the to do list! I also have my Quebec favorites: Jean Leloup and les Colocs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

An amazing thing? A thing out of the ordinary? I cycled across France (Paris to Marseille) in complete autonomy and by myself in 2011...and without a GPS! I camped along the way, and crossed dozens and dozens of cute french villages and bakeries. I saw all the different vegetations and climates of this beautiful country and finished my trip (18 days later) with 17 paper maps from all the different areas I had crossed.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to learn everything people have to share. Whether it is cool facts about their city or country or interesting experiences they have had. I also open to learn about any sport and to discuss about books and music!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share many things. I can teach yoga classes, meditations, I can chat for hours about philosophy. I can teach how to cook delicious vegan food! I can give horsemanship tips!
