About Me

I am a very simple girl : I just love meeting people, drinking with friends, talking about everything(news, music, politics, travel...) and listening other people's stories.

I moved to Montreal few months ago, I live now with 5 other wonderful roomates. We have a small apartment, we can't host. But I would be glad to meet new people :D. So don't hesitate to contact me :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

All my friends around me talked a lot about Couchsurfing and according to their own experiences and all the stories I heart, it seemed to be an interesting way to meet new people accross the World.
So I decided 3 years ago to start Couchsurfing when I was travelling accross Northern Ireland with my sister.... I had a wonderful memory of this experience. We learnt so much about the country and ourselves. After that I and my roomates in Southern France welcomed some travellers in our apartment. I also experienced CS during my travel in Denmark.

While I'm travelling, I love discovering local cultures, foods, people living there, etc...and I love living unexpected experiences (the fact is I don't like that much planning)

Interests

I like a lot of different things : going to cinema, hiking, swing jazz, walking to the beach while it's raining (a typical hobby for a Breton^^), chatting with friends with a glass of wine or a beer, cooking and of course eating ! I try to get more curious, openminded and positive in my daily life.

I have 2 main hobbies : piano (since I am 10) and theatre. I have played theatre for 5 years and I belong to a theatre group here in Montpellier!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a curious person, so I like discovering new kind of music, books or movies ;-)

About books, I am a new fan of comic books, especially the ones talking about travels or political situations (Guy Delisle, Etienne Davodeau, Marjane Satrapi...). I have also started reading the books of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie that I really love.

About movies, I am very interested in Ken Loach's, Wes Anderson's or Scorcese's movies.
And among all the movies that I do like : Black Swan, The Wind that Shakes the Barley, Mustang, Amélie Poulain, Mud, GoodBye Lenin,.... well too many!

From classical, celtic to rock music., I could listen everything. It just depends on my mind! And if I have no idea what to listen, I also love some radio programs!
