About Me

I am french, I am fond of discovering new places, new people, and different cultures.

I travelled a lot in South America, north Amercia, Europe and Oceania.

I have lived in Canada and in the US for the past 4 years.

When I travel, I always take a decent amount of time to enjoy my destination and try to connect with people. I am never rushing from cities to cities in order to check a box.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hosted a lot of friends of friends at my place in Brooklyn, and I loved showing them my neighborhood.
Now that I will be traveling a little bit in the US, I though Couch surfing was a great way to meet cool and open people and discover a city through their experiences.

Interests

I played and practiced a lot of different sports when I was younger (tennis, soccer, volleyball, speed running, snowboard, judo, hobie cat sailing, ...)
I got intereseted in art from a younger age thanks to my grand mother
I am very curious about sciences
I am vegan (1.5 years, best decision of my life), I love animals, and I try to always choose the best out of my options to have the smallest footprint on the planet.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always happy to chat about the environment and veganism. But I won't be pushing it on to people.
