Bonjour, I'm Océane (but if it's hard to pronounce, you can call me ocean... like the Pacific Ocean), and I'm from France.

I'm used to be a calm and shy person, but put me some salsa music, or more than one glass of wine, and you will see the real crazy me ;)
I like to contemplate simple or extraordinary landscapes in silence. I am a truly sky lover, in the day and the night. I also have the magic power to find heart shapes everywhere in the nature (but hush, that's my secret).
My English is not really fluent but the best way to improve it is to practice, right ?!
You should know one more thing about me : I am a terrible singer but when I feel happy, I can sing all day long... sorry.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I realised that I'm used to travel in order to see beautiful places but rarely in order to share beautiful moments with beautiful people. Now, It's time for me to travel alone, to meet and talk with people far from my home, to discover differents ways of life, to learn new languages, and finally share beautiful moments with beautiful people who can make me discover their beautiful country... I think I could become a better me, thanks to others !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw a volcanic eruption in Reunion Island, it was one of my dreams. It was so beautiful to see the lava and so powerful to hear the sound of the earth's depths, that I cried when it was time to leave.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would be happy to learn a new language with my host.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you some words in French, some salsa steps, how to make a friendship bracelet, or show you some constellations in the sky.
