Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Discovering all I can about California in 11 days and for that I need your help, your advice and your hospitality in exchange of good laughs little gifts and LOTS OF LOVE :)
ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm a french journalist very curious about everything, I like to travel, drink beers and watch tv shows :)
PHILOSOPHY
I try always to appear with a smile on my face (except when I'm really concentrated) because I believe we have to bring others a little bit of joy even if it is just through a smile or a nice word.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I am a beginner in the couch surfing world so I have no experience but I am eager to meet new people in new cities and I hope I will be soon able to give back what was given to me :) I will travel with my best friend Margaux between the 23rd of april and the 5th of may and so this is a unique opportunity to try couch surfing with locals who are willing to share their experiences and tips about their home place :)
Interests
I always love to learn new things and discover places I've never been to. I like reading, watching tv shows in original language, travel with friends to discover new places (and not only the beaches), and ask questions as well !
- street art
- photography
- reading
- traveling
- hiking
- skiing
- journalism
- beaches
- mountains
- food
- tv shows
- street photography
- drinking beer
- bad singing
- learning to play the guitar
Music, Movies, and Books
So many of them ! But the books that marked me at most were those of Bernard Werber, Jean Auel, Christian Jacq, as well as stories about the 2nd world war.
As for music I listen to everything but I do have a preference for hip-hop and old rock groups such as Pink Floyd, AC/DC, Queen, Aerosmith as well as more recent ones (Sweatshop union <3)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Multiple day-long hikes in the mountains of La Reunion (little french island near Madagascar) and I especially remember an awesome night ride by train in Thaïland with local people who are the nicest people on earth (and their food is amazing as well !)
Teach, Learn, Share
I have experience in the journalism world, in redaction as well as in correcting pages. I have interviewed multiple CEOs and learning about nearby societies helps me understand the economical dynamism of a region. But I feel now more like a "humanist militant" wanting a better world and I was told I am a "socialist utopist", as well as a feminist :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
I do love discovering street art while walking in cities, I enjoy nature as well as urban places and I am eager to share all this with potential nice hosts :)

Belgium, Dominican Republic, England, Germany, Italy, Mauritius, Réunion, Spain, Thailand
