About Me

ABOUT ME

I like travelling and meeting people as much as having a night in with my boyfriend and a comfi sofa.
I like to have an activity that challenges my body,martial art or bollywood, long walks or swimming...I'm up to try anything at least once.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's too short to worry about gossips.
We're only a split second in the history of the universe, so we may as well make the most of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had a great experience back in Australia. Also met up someone from my area over coffee which was enjoyable, talking about this and that, travel and experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading, mainly Forensic novels, Agatha Christie, Stephen King...but I am also guilty in enjoying a bit of Vampire or Greek gods raunchy novels when I want to switch off my brain.
I also love what we - french - call BD aka Bande Dessinees, the most famous format are probably Tintin or Garfield, but we also have loads of fantaisy stories involving Trolls, Vikings, Mythology, Space adventures...I really appreciate the details of the art put into it, drawings, colours, imagination.
That's pretty much me, I love all type of music, from Glenn Miller to GreenDay, french folk to Jamie Cullum, Offspring to the Nutcracker...just no Garage!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was amazed by the egyptian architecture, no matter what you see on TV doesn't quite prepare you to the real thing.
But the thing that will always make me smile broadly is the memory of my first night in South Africa lying at the back of a bucky on our way out of the bush, staring at an incredible amount of stars I've never seen before!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am the Queen of french crepes...and no they are not pancakes...they are thinner and tastier!
