About Me

Hi all !

I am currently a French exchange student at MIT. My home institution is a Parisian social sciences school called Sciences Po, and its bachelor program includes a mandatory year abroad right before graduation. So here I am, studying in the US.

I would say that I am a very open-minded young lady who cannot wait to go wander around the world, by myself or with friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really wanted to make the most of this year abroad by travelling around the area. It would be even more interesting if I could meet new people during my trips, so this is mainly why I am on Couchsurfing !

Interests

I truly love art, and all cultural things in general. I am particularly fond of photography. If I want to travel around, it's also because I really want to visit all these amazing museums scattered across the world !

I enjoy good food and good wine. But I also know that good food and good wine are much more enjoyable when shared with great people and lead to a nice conversation. I truly believe that meaningful discussions are what makes life worth living !

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Victor Hugo's novel "L'Homme qui Rit", it is probably one of the most beautiful and moving book I've ever read. "La Promesse de l'Aube" by Romain Gary is also one of my favorites.

Sorry for all the French references ! I should not forget "Jane Eyre" that I've read so many times ! I loved the movie too btw...

Teach, Learn, Share

I cannot wait to learn about other cultures, lifestyles, philosophies, etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I guess I can share my experience, even if it is still limited by my young age.

My sense of humour is sometimes weird and often remains unnoticed, but I would be more than willing to share it with my hosts !

Countries I’ve Visited
