About Me

Always ready to go on new adventures, travel, do new things, experience life. Staying in a comfort zone has never been for me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mostly I’ve been staying at hostels while I was traveling and met great people there. But heard so many good things about couchsurfing that i wanted to give it a shot. Never had the chance to host that much apart from friends or acquaintances but had the chance to try couch surfing in us and Canada and that was a great experience with great people!
Sometimes the most enriching is not by the number of miles you go away but with the person you share experiences.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach french, talk spanish and share anything that comes up living experiences. Hard to say without meeting a person. Each connexion is different.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My french cooking skills are a bit random but I can definitely make you crêpes in the morning.
And I can most certainly share a bottle of wine, red if possible.
