Overview
About Me
Hi! I'm living in Paris for 8 years now, working in animation industry as storyboarder, working on a tv animated serie staring a certain super hero girl with a black dots and red lycra suit, pigtails and a yoyo, (Miraculous yeah).
It seems i catched the travel virus three years ago after my first lone trip in Japan, and now, one time a year, i try to go in new country or place i did'nt go before. Meeting other people open your mind and sight to the world, and yourself and your own culture on the same time. It is the best way to know yourself and grow up with experience.
Usually i travel alone, this way i can go anyway, meandering in towns and places.
But as a lone girl traveling away, meeting locals and people along the trip are the most important things -more than visiting museums or historical monuments.
Sharing stories , making unexpected meetings... in fact : socialize.
Life is an everyday challenge, to try be a better myself everyday, having no regrets in my acts.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like embracing new cultures in the daily life way, listening stories and experiences of locals people.
Discovering off-the-beaten-track places, everyday life of cities and countries, and meeting unusual encounters is an enriching experience and make me grow up.

As an artist in the animation industry, art and cinema are great hobbies : plenty of animation films, series, and truly admirative for the Japanese animation !
Because my country, France, is the country of Gastronomy, i love to try new restaurants all the time, new foods, and spend a lot of time cooking meals and other pastries.
But i also care about ecology and earth protection, and try to harmonize my acts with my thoughts, ... "you must be the change you want to see". Gandhi.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I spent one month travelling in Japan by my one, from spot to spot, and met in a small village what i would call my second family, that i swore i will meet again.
Another story, starts in the evening in Connemara in a pub, with perfect strangers and a pint of beer in the hand, and ends by scubadiving the morning after with those same guys.
Teach, Learn, Share
Coming from the country of gastronomy, I love testing and trying the typical food from other countries, but i also try to cook myself, and prepare recipes, cakes and many other dishes... so if you like pancakes would be glad to prepare some ! And lets share our gastronomy and cook together !
I can give some tips in french; always funny words to learn .
Drawing is also my passion, my work, my life, and i relate my adventures and people i meet into my own comics.
