I AM CURRENTLY TRAVELLING AND WILL HAVE LIMITED ACCESS TO INTERNET. I am passionate about little things, trying to reduce my material needs, live in a sustainable manner and enjoy. When travelling, I always seek to engage in local activities and feel part of a community, having learnt about the socio-political surroundings. I appreciate touristic attractions too, but I enjoy more in learning through conversation and sharing moments. What I find impressive when visiting a country is activism and resistance to oppressive governments through creative independent actions. I love learning about initiatives for integration, inclusion and multicultural dialogue and find ways to participate. I prefer walking to transport, tent to hotel, vegetables to meat, board games to coffee meet-ups, wine to any other drink, native languages to English... Abandoned buildings and street art fascinate me because of their temporality. Music can touch me deeply to crying. Nature helps me find myself. Dancing and singing remind me how much I love life :)

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
To meet people that I otherwise wouldn't, enjoy moments together and learn.
Music, Movies, and Books
It's easier to list music types I don't enjoy : turbo folk, rap, pop, house. I prefer European than Hollywood movies (still discovering new transatlantic cinematography). Thoughtful books. Politics. philosophy, art, poetry, history., psychology.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
