I grew up in Luxembourg but have been living in Paris for about twelve years now and I absolutely love this city. I have studied political science and am now teaching and researching on language policy. I am interested in music, art, experiencing new cultures and love to travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am an outgoing and openminded person who likes to meet new people and learn new things and show people a different side of Paris.
