Overview
About Me
I'm super curious and open-minded, even though...it's not always easy for me to be social when there are a lot of people around, but I do love to share life experiences with people I meet, talk about cinema, journeys, different cultures...anything that rocks your boat really!! I love to travel, and gather everything I do and everyone I meet in my notebooks. I love drawing and writing. It's my thing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love couchsurfing because you get to meet very generous people and share experiences with them. I like to ask people that host me what they recommend to do, or which places they like best in their country/city. It's the best way to discover unexpected buildings, cities, landscapes, and to get to know different cultures and ways of life!
I experienced Couchsurfing when I traveled through Iceland (backpacker / hitch hiking style) with my sister in 2012, and after that when I went to Japan, in may 2015 .
We stayed in Iceland for one month and got to meet very cool people that helped us and sheltered us for several days. Talking with them was a really rich experience and I'll never forget them. :)
We also met really nice people in Japan. We were hosted by a super nice japanese couple with 2 kids, who live in Tokyo, and then by a canadian couple who live in Osaka.
I never had a place of my own big enough or long enough to share it with couchsurfers, but this is next on my list !
