I am a passionate and restless traveller! Travelling makes me feel free and independent, it makes me be myself. I come back from a study year in Boston, Massachusetts. There, I studied politics and international relations, interned with a human rights attorney and volunteered in a shelter for LGBT people. I also travelled all over the United States and made very good friends. This experience litteraly changed my life and my prospects.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing appears to be the best way to discover a place throughout a local point of view. It let us enjoy a cultural experience while mutually sharing a bit of our own culture, what is very important to me.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
- On August 2016, I hiked the Pacific Crest Trail - a five-day trip in total autonomy in total wilderness in Washington state. During that trip, I had to overcome many hurdles : walking through snowy ridgelines and steep slopes without any kind of help. Though I sometimes feared for my own life, it was an amazing experience that made me stronger! - I hitchhiked in the middle of nowhere in Washington state with a half-naked guy eating beef jerky and who finally was the cutest person on earth! - I volunteered in a Tibetan settlement in Northern India. - I did a humanitarian mission in a medical team in Cambodia.
