About Me

CURRENT MISSION

make the best out of my life and never look back in regret

ABOUT ME

I'm a genuinely lively and happy person and optimism is one of my main characteristics!I love meeting new people and doing different things as often as I can, but sometimes routine seems also very nice:)I'm still in a quest to discover myself and what makes me happy...

PHILOSOPHY

J'aime mieux avoir des remords que des regrets.
For those not speaking french:i 'd rather feel sorry for something I did than regret for something I didn't do...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can show people around the city (any city i might be leaving at the moment...it tends to change quite frequently those last months...) and make them have a great time!I also participate in various CS activities!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Although it was not officially couchsurfing, I surfed the couch(or rather the bed)of a friend's cousin in a small village next to Berlin-the family was really nice, their dog especially was too friendly!They even organized a poker night for me, because nowdays it's really cool in Germany ! I have also surfed the couches of friends in Belgium, the Netherlands and France (although not experiences through cs stricto sensu). My proper cs experience so far is limited to having shown two guys around Athens and Geneva and participating in cs activities through the athens group.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1.Played poker for the first time of my life and actually won!
2.Got from Mont Saint Aignan to the center of Rouen by foot(always with friends) while I was quite drunk, didn't get lost, get hit by a car or loose my bag!
3. Managed to find a very nice and cheap place to live in Geneva in a very short period of time- this city is notorious for the difficulty of finding a decent place to live:P

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach greek or cooking/pastry making. I am also a lot into human rights, so I could offer my insight. I am definately an Athens lover, so I know quite a few lovely spots/coffe shops /restaurants/bars/ views/places to go around:)
