Overview
About Me
Hello!
I'm a literature student (in german and french literatures), so I obviously read a lot, but I'm into culture in general (I play the cello and drums, my boyfriend is a plastician and so on) I'm writing for a website about culture in Geneva, I teach French and German, I'm working for a radio, I used to be a windsurf teacher and even ran for the last election in Geneva in a feminist party.
I'm someone curious and easy to live.
This year, I'll be in Philadelphia. I'm gonna teach and study French at UPenn, and I'll be more than happy to meet new people to discover the city before starting the academic year!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on Couchsurfing because I love to meet new people, and discover new ways of thinking and visions of word. I also travel, so when I'm home, having a guest is a good opportunity to travel by procuration (:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I used to work with a guitar maker in London. It was rock'n'roll.
Teach, Learn, Share
My main question in life is: How can I teach and learn from people? And I think that discussing stuffs with strangers is a good way to open my mind and enlarge each other's point of view. So I'm ok to share more or less everything that I know!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share some tea, meals and recipes. I'll show you Geneva (the touristic places, but also my favourite places) and introduce you to some people who you might like if you want (:
