Overview
About Me
Hello Couchsurfers,
After i set off on my first adventure—a month of backpacking in Mexico in 2008 i knew i was going to be hooked for life :)
For the next 10 years, I alternated between working as a physical education teacher in Paris and exploring the world. Summers were spent on roadtrips around Europe, while my travels took me across Southeast Asia, through Central, South, and North America, and lately through the Pacific.
In 2019, I decided to learn how to sail. I crossed the Atlantic and hitchhiked on sailboats around the Caribbean. When covid hit, I chose not to return home. Instead i continued sailing throught the atlantic, the Pacific until here, New caledonia.
I love meeting locals and travelers, getting to know their cultures, and sharing experiences. Whether it's through outdoor sports, music, or just hanging out.
PHILOSOPHY
"Don’t worry, be happy!"
"Live your dreams—don’t just dream your life" "Trying is always better than doing nothing"
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Started couchsurfing back in 2012 during my travels in Central America. It’s such a great way to connect with locals, but also with fellow travelers. I traveled with some or just grabbed coffee or went wild on the dancefloor ^^
I love sharing travel tips, practicing languages, swapping recipes, and spreading good vibes.
I also host whenever I can.
