CURRENT MISSION
Be Happy

ABOUT ME
Hello ! I'm Jessica, former cinema student, and future social student, living in Toulouse !
Last year, I travelled to Greece in a van, and I realized my life couldn't be only made of work and carreer. So, currently, I'm trying to set up my own work/life balance.
I'm a cheerful and very optimistic person, always smiling and trying to help everyone in need.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is not waiting for the storm to pass but learning to dance in the rain.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CS is a wonderful tool to destroy the fence between countries, and make people meet each other. All different but all together !
For the moment, I never slept at a CS host's home, but I hosted a few travellers, and every CS experience I had was very positive.

Interests

Going to concerts, movies, festival, hanging around with some friends or people I just met..
Of course I love cinema, I'm always very happy to discover some unknown filmmaker, and even more if it's weird or experimental...
I also like creative handcrafts, like knitting, sewing, making some furnitures out of cardboard...
I did some WWOOFing, I'm very interested about ecology, and positive ways to keep the planet livable.
