Hello !
I'm Sophie, 23 years old from Paris in France. After my studies and my first job, I decided to take a year off with my partner, Baptiste, to travel and learn through experience. We both studied ecological transition and the subject is close to our hearts. What's more, we're both keen on sport (football and trekking in particular) but also on good food and adventure of all kinds. We're also doing some workaways !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Through other travellers, we discovered the principle of the platform, which won us over, enabling us to meet people from different backgrounds (and maybe you too) and share moments of discovery through different eyes.
We travel lightly, meeting new people and following our instincts. We don't have a precise destination, but we're heading for Asia.

Music, Movies, and Books

Open to listen to every kind of music, the first i can think about are Abba's music in its entirety, Burna Boy, Wizkid and Jul.

For the movies i will say "Yannick" from Quentin Dupieux but difficult to choose one
But also classics as Lord of Rings, Star Wars, Inception, Catch me If you Can...

About books we'are mostly reading french authors, We can cite here Timothée Parrique : Ralentir ou Périr ; Juan Martinez-Alier : The environmentalism of the poor ; Michael Christie : Greenwood ; Ernest Callenbach : Ecotopia ;

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I experienced the 2018 football cup final in Croatia. We had to celebrate in silence.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think the best way to learn is through discussion and experience, so let's talk and share moments together !
