About Me

I am addicted to dance, recently obsessed with Konpa, a beautiful dance from Haiti and always happy to dance Kizomba and am dying to find a good Swing community to dance Rockabilly Jive. I always enjoy going out with my friends and meeting up with new people, especially the Couchsurfing community that has added so much to my life since I joined it.

Currently in Melbourne after living in China a few years. Still lots more to explore inshallah, next destination in the books, New Caledonia, pourquoi pas!

Living, enjoying every moment, ici et maintenant!

PHILOSOPHY

Live life with honor, honoring what your roots have given you, and honoring what you give out to the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to share my experiences with others and get to know more about the world, culture, languages. One person can change your world, so why not let the world change you and let you become who you were always meant to be!

Interests

I love everything about languages, and being a teacher and a life student, if I have you repeat something it's really because I wanna grasp the correct pronunciation. It's truly a passion hence me choosing to teach English and also French.

Music and dance are and have been a big part of me. I'd love to connect with more people around the world that wish to share more about it as I feel it has a big story that needs to be shared in so many ways.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'd recommend to every woman and really everyone that wants to reach into their soul, Rise Sister Rise by Rebecca Campbell

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have traveled in different countries every three years with my family. We lived in Fiji Islands, Australia, China, Mexico, Chile, Argentina and Peru by the age of 16. I never chose traveling, it chose me, us and hope to hear more of your story!

Teach, Learn, Share

If there is one thing of life that I have learned is that we always evolve. I've learned so much from all my past experiences and continue to learn through the different people I meet and love the non-ending road that it is.

Breathe to take in every moment, Realize what surrounds you and understand its worth and Live full on to not miss any second of what life has to offer you!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you some afro dance moves or how to take the Quebec accent in English haha or if time allows it why not some empanadas from Chile or the famous POUTINE from Quebec.
