About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I wanna hang a map of the world in my house. Then I'm gonna put pins into all the locations that I've traveled to. But first, I'm gonna have to travel to the top two corners of the map so it won't fall down. (Mitch Hedberg)

ABOUT ME

Curiousity, good-temper & care seem to apply pretty well to my personality. Besides, it could hardly be denied that i'm a party-girl.
I consider myself as down to earth since I'm aware of how lucky I am, and I'm thankful for the carefree life I lead, but on the other hand it has never prevented me from making enormous projects in matter of travel in particular. There is no doubt that i'm ambitious and I totally believe in my dreams!

PHILOSOPHY

Loneliness finishes you off piece by piece.
I need friends and individuals in general with all their vices & vertues

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Giving people the opportunity to have a look in the "real france", far from the Eiffel Tower, not the france of their book whose cover shows a guy holding a baguette and saying "J'aime le fromage", is my main goal. And this what i'm looking for: being off the beaten track and meet people in their everyday life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted two english Alice and surfed Rebecca's couch in Ireland. These 3 experiences were great!

Interests

Meeting new people, photography (website), music, party

The whole English-speaking world fascinate me!
I more particularly lay my attention on Ireland as I live there for one year.

Thanks to (or because of) my studies, I'm really interrested by the english movies as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

From Daft Punk, Big Soul, Fatboy Slim or Basement Jaxx to Ray Charles, Ben Harper, Norah Jones, Massive attack, Morcheeba and Jack Johnson, via The Cat Empire, the Moldy Peaches, Blur and Bob Dylan.

I'm fond of concert! And montpellier is such a good place for that. The best artists at least came once here. That's why i already had the pleasure to see Placebo, Groundation, Stacie Kent, Correy Harris ... and other french great bands.

Books from Swift to Pritchett, I read quite a lot since i've choosen Literature class!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Decide to cross the Atlantic Ocean despite my exams and work for 3 months at WildWood Camp, New Hampshire (USA) where I met the greatest people on earth!

Correy Harris's private concert with my brother at the Jam (Montpellier)... unforgettable!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am proud of my region (South of France and Montpellier above all). That might be why one of my secret -which thus won't be secret no longer- will is to make you fall in love with it.
I hope I could give you good advices for your French if you're learning it, or share my french culture at condition you're giving me a good overview of yours.
