About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning Spanish by meeting Spanish native speakers.
Except from that, discovering the world by meeting people from everywhere.

ABOUT ME

I'm quite adventurous. I mean, I like to discover new places, new people, and most of all, new food. I am a food addict, but it is probably because I am French. haha
I think I'm funny, even though not everybody understand my jokes. Otherwise, I'm trustworthy, honest and direct. If I need to say something, I'm not all the time smooth. I'm also quite easy-going and pretty easy to live with, at least, that was the opinions of my roommates. ;P

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I wish I could host, but unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment as I am travelling.
Hopefully in the future, when I will have a place of my own.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Summer 2012 was my first experience of CS, and it was just greeeeeeaat ! I got so much luck with all my host, because they were all so welcoming and friendly.

This was my first shot, and it went so well that I just can't wait to do it again and to start to host to return the favour.
I would really like to host as well. As soon as I can (time + space), I'll do it. Promise !

Interests

Travelling is the thing that makes me feel good. I love to be out of my comfort zone. To be in a new country, with new people, in a new culture.
I also like to go hiking, biking, ... to be outside. I also like to do sport, but those past few years I've been a little too lazy and quite busy with my studies, so no sports at all. In autumn 2015 I hurt my knee, just when I started to do sport again. I think it was a sign from the universe, telling me that sport was not for me anymore.
I love to read too. When I do really like to book, I just can't get off it. I have to keep reading until i'm at the end. I love romance book ( not corny romance!), police book, science-fiction ... Every thing that lift me to another world.

Music, Movies, and Books

All Tim Burton's movies, all Hayao Miyazaki's film.
Comedy, Action, Romance and Cartoons.
Not so much of a fan of thriller and do not like horror movies at all !

For the music, I listen to a lot of stuff. Very old, to very recent. Blues, Jazz, Rock, Electro, Indie-Folk....

I also watch a lot of series, more than movies at the moment, because one of my roommate was a serious geek ! True Blood, Peaky Blinders, GOT (of course !), Vikings, Under the dome, the 100 ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

NYE (2012). I was sitting in a hot tub, which was situated outside, on the shore of a bay. Temperature outside : 0°C (max.). At 00h, we could see all the fireworks from the surrounding towns. Best New Years Eve EVEEEER !
Another great souvenir is when I swam on the Coral Reef in Cairns. I just have been a little disappointed that it wasn't as colorful as in all the documentary I had seen.
Just sitting on the white sand beach at Liepaja (Latvia).
Iguazu Falls.

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't know what I could teach to people (maybe to cook some dishes ?), but we can have a nice chat at least.
We always learn something from others. Well, at least, that's what I think. Because, the people you meet are different than you, have different opinions, cultures ... so you cannot not learn something from someone else !

Smiles. :D
