ABOUT ME

Hi everyone ! My name is Alice, 21 years old, born in Angers (Northwest of France). I grew up within two cultures: my father being Austrian and my mother French.

I am very creative and have an artistic mind. Everywhere I am I see the world through “drawing glasses”. I imagine the world in drawing colours. So, I always find an opportunity to create things and make art.
I love arts in all forms: photography, drawing, painting, sculpting, sewing and other manual activities as well as visiting museums and exhibitions.
People often tell me that I am a cliché of my kind. In fact I started colouring my hair when I was 17. I regularly change hair colour, it is became a part of my identity. It is a way for me to stand out from other people. I don’t like the feeling of being in the norms. Plus, I regularly receive compliments (even from unknown people on the street), so not complaining haha !

Besides, I like going for a walk and enjoying the beautiful nature (sometimes also with my camera).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just graduated in Visual Arts in Strasbourg (Northeast of France). These past 3 years were interesting and enriching - but also quite intensive. This is why, now that I finished my degree, I want to see something else than university. I want to explore new horizons and meet new people, learn how people live in different part of the world, see beautiful places, and especially improve my English. I gave myself one year to do so. And why not at the same time share this experience with you.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have read many fiction books in the past years and now I began to be more interested in psychology and "personal development". I also listen to podcasts on these topics. I like to understand always better human thinking and behaviors.

I listen different types of music, it all depends on the mood I'm in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

At 16, I travelled with my sister through Italie with our backpacks during 3 weeks. It was the first time I got to discover a country like this no parents on adventure!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always open to learn new things, new people and see new horizons. Also I would like to improve my English by sharing interesting conversation and I could maybe teach you some French too! I think we all have something to learn from eachother, we all have different hobbies and interests, so let's talk !

What I Can Share with Hosts

Just share nice discussions with you! I will be happy to learn how you live and learn more about topics you like.
I like cooking, so maybe we can cook together. I can also show you delicious French specialities !
