Hello,
I'm Pauline, 22 years old. I love travelling, and as I’m on a gap year, I’m taking advantage of my free time to visit some new countries !! I was in Thailand and Laos for 2 months, it was my first time traveling by myself and I had so much fun, met some amazing people, we shared a lot and visited so many nice places… I’m now in Spain for 1 month to learn Spanish and visit the south of the country!
I’m a big fan of outdoor activities such as hiking, skiing and climbing (just started in Spain). I feel really good when I’m in the nature, by myself or with friends, we always have a good time !
I also love playing the piano. I started when I was 5 and I studied classical music during 3 years at the university, before deciding to take a gap year to explore the world, try some new things, and take more time to think about what I really want to do in my life :)
I love learning new things, whatever it is. It’s so interesting to get more knowledge, to understand things and people better or even how you feel when you do something… Learning languages is also really important for me as it allows me to communicate with more people from around the world

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It’s such a great opportunity to meet locals and know more about the culture and the way people live in the country we’re visiting !

Music, Movies, and Books

I love classical musical as I studied that for some time! But I’m also a fan of jazz music. I find it really impressive how well they can improvise !
I recently started taking salsa lessons, and I love that music! I think it’s impossible to not dance when we hear that ;)
