About Me

I am a 21 year-old masters student in law, currently living in Paris. In 2017 I had the chance to spend a year in the United States of America, studying and traveling in several states of the country, including mainly California, Texas, Tennessee, New York, Florida and Illinois. Now that I am back in Europe, my wish is to keep wandering and discover new cities in Europe!

I would describe myself as extremely friendly, curious and outgoing! I like doing sports and exercising in general. I am also fond of litterature, movies and indie rock. I am looking forward to meeting you along the road!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don’t really like going on a trip without meeting any locals. I wanna live the full experience and tripadvisor/google/guidebooks will never equal a direct contact with a local. Organised tours and resorts are not for me. Moreover, I’m very curious and meeting strangers never disappoint me!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When in the United States, me and three other friends hitchhiked from Austin, Texas to Memphis, Tennessee. The trip allowed us to make extraordinary encounters with locals and discover the south of the US, quite a cultural shock for us Europeans! The best part was being picked up by a couple that had been living and traveling in a van since 2014, and who offered us a meal for Thanksgiving. Once in Nashville, we had the chance to go and listen to the extraordinary soulman Al Greene.

In the United States again, I had the opportunity to get my driving license and go on a road trip in California to visit my friends spread in the country, and discover the most beautiful national parks the west coast has to offer!
