I'm a MD in Paris and a yoga teacher.
After traveling the world for a while, I came back to Paris and enjoy being a tourist in my hometown.
Currently working on a board game about… travels!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been on CS since 2008, had especially one great experience in Georgia and another great one inviting 2 Lithuanians girls in Paris.
I cancelled my account after having one too many bad experiences, and unfortunately sharing other bad experiences with fellow travelers, more specifically about harassment coming from male CSers.
I regretted not being part of this co-helping community anymore so I opened a new account.
Now that I am traveling with my daighter, i’d like to continue traveling this way with her.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to exchange language skills. I'm fluent in French and English, speak good Spanish, a bit of Portuguese, and right now would like to learn Russian and practice. I also have basic Italian knowledge.
I can cook Italian, I do my own cosmetics, I'm a certified yoga teacher and a certified reiki master and teacher as well.
I love gardening and I always love to learn from plants and medicinal herbs.

What I Can Share with Hosts

French, English, reiki, and I can show Paris
