Hello !

My name is Agnès, I am both French and Spanish, but I grew up in France, so I only speak french... I have always lived close to Paris and was working as an executive assistant in an architecture office, until this year, when I left everything behing me (including my lovely cat) to discover the world.

I am now travelling with my husband, Michaël, who left his job (he worked as a Cloud engineer in the French Central Bank - a rocker wearing a well-tailored suit) and his cat too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in courchsurfing because I think that you can't really know a country if you don't know the people who lives in there. I wish I could share the things I already discovered and understand the way that each one see the world.

I would love to hear about the everyday life in the cities I'm visiting, the non-touristical places, the good restaurant or bars, the small streets rich in history, the areas where I can listen to music...

Music, Movies, and Books

-- MUSIC

I listen almost every kind of music, but especially :
- A lot of electro music (C2C, Chinese Man, Opiuo, Scratch Bandits Crew) & dubstep music (Grim, the Mc Mash Clan, Mitis, Tristam, Deadmau5...)
- Dub / Reggae music (Dubamix, Dub Inc, Deluxe, Asian Du Foundation...)
- "Alternative" rock (as Prodigy, Fatboy Slim, Die Antwoord, Stupeflip...)
- Classic music. Yes, big fan of Debussy here.

-- MOVIES

- French comedy movies (the best one in the world : Nos jours heureux, Les Visiteurs, Quasimodo del Paris, Rrrr, Intouchables, la Cité de la Peur, le Diner de Cons...
- Every Marvel & DC Movies (hum... except Thor... and the last Batman, i don't like shit)
- A looot of cartoons movies, in particular Pixar !
- TOLKIEN & STAR WARS TRILOGIES OF COURSE
- Some others movies : Interstellar, Whiplash, biographic movies...

-- TV SHOWS

I am a huge fan of tv shows, so here are some of my favorites (of the moment) (not in order of preference) :
- The Big Bang Theory
- Kaamelott (french humoristic tv show about King Arthur)
- The Crown
- Games of Thrones
- Mr Robot
- Parks & Recreation
- Stranger Things
- Black Mirror
- House of Cards
- South Park

-- BOOKS

I read a lot. Most of the books I read are about society issues (sexism, racism, specism, but also ecology, internet dangers, justice...) and religion (islamophobia in France, bouddhism...). I try to open my mind by reading, so I'm always looking for books about the society and the world. But don't worry, I won't talk about these subjects, unless you ask me ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- When I was 20 (and never took any flight), I went backpacking in China for 2 month... By my own.
- I went to the Sziget Festival. Twice.
- I get married. Yes, this is amazing.
