About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Taking care of the most important things: children! I am childcare animator, I take care of kids around school time (lunch/afterschool) and during Wednesdays and holidays.

ABOUT ME

I'm curious, open-minded, social, enthusiastic. After trying to work in video editing and teaching, I realized I wasn't fit to stay behind a desk. So, after being host in schools and leisure centers for children, in parallel with my studies in Paris, which I liked but I think I could do better, I wanted to take some time to think about my life, so I decided to travel for 2 years around the world, from South-East Asia and their Buddhist temples to Australia and New Zealand... And here I am, back on duty in Paris, France, after having lived for 6 year in the South (Montpellier) just after this world tour!

PHILOSOPHY

Tolerance, dialog, solidarity, ecology, curiosity... I love to talk and share opinions, talking for hours to remake the world...
I also try to act as a careful & concerned customer, to buy fair trade and eco-friendly products, buying less stuff, become more and more vegetarian...

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to share my culture with you, and I'd love you to share yours with mine!
I've just a small 1 room flat for now, so I can't share it with you, but as soon as I settle, I'll be happy to share my couch!
