About Me

I’m 25 years old and I live in Lille, a city I love as much for its lively atmosphere as for its quiet little streets where I often end up wandering. I study in the health field, a world that fascinates me because it combines science, human connection, and constant curiosity.
I’m naturally curious and sociable, and I love discovering new cities and observing how people live, speak, move, and cook. Cultures fascinate me, especially in their small everyday details.
I’m really into sports — cycling, running, hiking — they’re often my way of disconnecting and discovering a place from another angle. I also love reading: sometimes a classic, sometimes a crime novel, and sometimes just a few lines of poetry that stay with me throughout the day.
But what I enjoy most are simple moments: a coffee in a place I’ve never been before, a walk that wasn’t planned, or a conversation that takes an unexpected turn. I love meeting people who live differently, who have stories to share, or just a contagious good mood.

J’ai 25 ans et je vis à Lille, une ville que j’apprécie autant pour son énergie que pour ses petites rues tranquilles où je me perds régulièrement. J’étudie dans le domaine de la santé, un univers qui me passionne parce qu’il mêle science, contact humain et curiosité permanente.
De nature curieuse et sociable, j’adore découvrir de nouvelles villes et observer comment les habitants vivent, parlent, se déplacent, cuisinent. Les cultures me fascinissent jusque dans leurs petits détails.
Je fais beaucoup de sport : vélo, course, randonnée… c’est souvent ma manière de déconnecter et de découvrir un endroit autrement. J’aime aussi lire — parfois un classique, parfois un polar, parfois simplement quelques vers de poésie qui me suivent toute la journée.
Mais ce que je préfère, ce sont les moments simples : un café dans un endroit que je découvre, une balade qui n’était pas prévue, une conversation qui prend une tournure inattendue. J’aime rencontrer des personnes qui vivent différemment, qui ont des histoires à raconter, ou simplement une bonne humeur contagieuse.
Je suis quelqu’un de respectueux, autonome et ouvert d’esprit. Si on se rencontre, je serai toujours partant pour marcher, discuter, partager un repas ou juste profiter d’un instant calme. J’aime vraiment ces moments où l’on se sent à la fois chez soi et ailleurs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I see Couchsurfing as a different way of traveling: by meeting locals who bring their city to life and discovering places that no guidebook would ever mention. I love the idea that we can share a moment, an idea, a story, or simply part of the journey — and that it leaves a much deeper mark than any hotel reservation ever could.
For me, Couchsurfing is also a chance to exchange cultures, learn new perspectives, and step out of my comfort zone.

Je vois Couchsurfing comme une façon de voyager autrement : en rencontrant des habitants qui font vivre leur ville et en découvrant des endroits qu’aucun guide ne mentionnera. J’aime l’idée qu’on puisse partager un moment, une idée, une histoire, ou juste un bout de chemin, et que ça laisse une trace bien plus durable qu’une simple réservation dans un hôtel.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Call Me By Your Name for the summer vibe and the cinematography; Interstellar for the music and emotion; The Grand Budapest Hotel for its unique style; I never say no to a good thriller like Shutter Island

Books: I read a lot and in very different genres: classics, crime novels, poetry… there are far too many favorites to list!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I can teach a few things about French culture, language, and food, and maybe even some basics about health sciences if you're curious. I’m also happy to share sports tips, especially for running or cycling.

Learn: I love learning about local habits, hidden spots in your city, and anything related to your culture. I’m also always curious to learn new phrases in different languages or try a new recipe from your country.

Share: I enjoy sharing good conversations, walks, coffees, playlists, books I love, and the little things that make daily life unique. I’m also happy to cook something together or just exchange perspectives and stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love exchanging stories, especially the slightly ridiculous ones… like the time I tried to eat a still-moving octopus during a trip. Let’s just say it was memorable and a bit too interactive for my taste

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Germany, Italy, Jamaica, Portugal, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, Vatican City State
