Overview
About Me
Hi everyone!
I left France in January 2020 to change my way of leaving. I crossed the Atlantic on a sailing boat and then discovered sailing life! I learnt how to sail and I live now on my boyfriend's sailing boat. We are currently in Dominican Republic after having spent one year between Guadeloupe and Martinique.
I use to work in an office, in the center of Paris, doing my best for companies that don't care about me. This is over. Now, I just live, driven by what is important to me.
I am driven by ecologic, feminist, humanist values. I try to be as open-minded as I can, and to understand the way of living of people different from me. I think that the real wealth is to get to know people different from me.
I love a lot of things and am always open to discover new ones. I practice improvisation theatre, music (violon, clarinet, flute, ukulele, and a bit of guitar), slackline and highline, I sail quite a lot, love to read, learn things and learn how to memorize. I like to hike, climb, bike... anything can be my thing with the right people :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I tried CouchSurfing for the first time in the country I grew up in, France. It was in 2019, and I had decided to go to the ocean hitchhiking and then discover people through CouchSurfing.
I met three different persons in three days. I was in my own country and those persons were so different in their way of thinking and of living from me ! I was surprised, and I loved talking with them, discovering their life. We were living in the same country and I felt like we really lived a different life. It was so fulfilling !
I am deeply sure that I will discover more way of living and people by CouchSurfing around the world.

Music, Movies, and Books
I can like basically anything, depending on who I am with, what my mood is, where I am...
I try to read as much as possible: currently I read feminists book. I also read books about, ecology, sociology, anghropology...
If we meet, I'll be glad to discover new musics with you and to show you my favourites !
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I participated in a hitchhiking race where I met someone I had met on the Internet before.
I took 10 friends to party on a desert island near Paris.
I hitchhiked 3000+ kilometers in 2019.

What I Can Share with Hosts
I believe in the power of instinct.
