ABOUT ME

Eighteen-year-old girl who is engaged and curious about everything. Loves sharing new experiences with others, big conversationalist, has travelled a fair amount and would like to continue forever! I have been in France since September, taking a gap year between high school and college and in the meantime have been wwoofing (working on organic farms)throughout the south of France. In love with nature, cooking, speaking french, and many other things...the rest will have to be a surprise!

PHILOSOPHY

I havent discovered one sole personal philosophy yet... Am a militant believer in the idea that what comes around goes around, which is why I find couch surfing so appealing.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As soon as I am back "home" my couch/floor/bed will be open to any other travelers... am thrilled to be able to participate in this community.

Algo increíble que he hecho

My responses are going to get more and more ambiguous...Everything I've experienced has been, in one way or another, amazing. I am constantly dazzled by the people I meet and the things I see and the most amazing things in my (short) lifetime have been the "belles rencontres" between myself and many others.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Just by virtue of meeting new people we are able to "teach, learn and share." I can share with you the things I've been gathering and collecting for all of my life...my ideas, my understanding of different things, my desires, and so on. If looking for a more concrete response I love cooking and baking and I can teach you some of the things Ive picked up!
