About Me

I'm 29 years old and originally from Biarritz.

Graphic designer and illustrator, I have always a sketch book or something to draw with me.

I'm a creative, respectful, and easy-going person, passionate about culture, art galleries, cinema, music, and cooking. I love meeting new people, exchanging ideas, and exploring different lifestyles and perspectives!!!

Well, I like also skating / skiing / pool / pétanque / watching the sunset / read / sketching / goat cheese with honey / watermelon with feta cheese / pet sitting / tufting rugs / dirty chai latte / nikka whisky / iceskating /
basketball / ping pong / chess /

I learnt a lot of capitals, now I need to focus on flags, can you help me?

What I don't really like : well not so much - Vegemite ? :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing not just to find short-term accommodation, but to connect with people who share values of openness, mutual support, and cultural exchange. I'm used to doing volunteer work through platforms like Workaway, which has allowed me to meet amazing people and immerse myself in different ways of life. I love forming genuine connections and discovering places through the eyes of locals.

Travelling alone is so good, but sometimes I feel a bit lonely, that's true. Especially when I move to an other city.
You know, when someone is asking me : What is your life goal? I always answer : To find the best gems around the world. And I think Couchsurfing can help me
