hi, i'm french but i wash on a daily basis.
i teach english - several years in junior high, and the last 3 at uni. i'm pretty open-minded, sociable, enthusiastic and always in search of new experiences.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

i'm new on couchsurfing because i've only recently understood through friends how cool it is - i can be a bit slow-minded sometimes - and so far i stayed mostly in hostels, which i also love because u get to meet a lot of travelers, but nothing beats local knowledge, and since i'm on a one-year trip around South America, NZ, Oz and SE Asia I figured i would never get to know the places i'm going to visit as well as by meeting the locals and enjoying their hospitality.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

surfed with dolphins all around me in a deserted australian spot. freaked out at first at first when i saw the fins and then they started racing under me and throwing algae to each other over my head so i was happy

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

i think it's pointless and counterproductive to have certitudes in life. i now know a few things - but mostly what i know is that i know nothing - but i'm always learning and i've always preferred being a learner than a teacher.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

my crappy sense of humor, my general good temper and enthusiasm, my experiences as a traveler, my amazing dancing moves, and a couple french recipes : i'm not a chef but i can make mean crepes!
