CURRENT MISSION

Decide what your definition of adventure is. Then go find it.

ABOUT ME

I'm a recent college graduate with overwhelming wanderlust. // Je suis diplômée en sciences du language. Ayant fini mes études, j'ai envie de voyager.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted several people at my flat in Saint Etienne, France, and also met up with people at weekly hangouts. // J'ai hébergé du monde chez moi, et je participe aux rendezvous couchsurfing dans ma ville.

Interests

I love to cook and bake, especially homemade breads. I spend many late nights and early mornings waiting for bread to rise and bake.
I study linguistics and love foreign languages.
I'm into chill evenings spent with friends, good wine or good whiskey, and good conversations in whatever language we have in common.// J'adore cuisiner ; je fais très souvent du pain maison. Je suis étudiante de la linguistique et je suis amoureuse de toutes les langues étrangères. La nuit idéale pour moi consisterait à partager un bon repas, du bon vin ou du bon whiskey, et des bonnes conversations en n'importe quelle langue.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I've ever seen is the view from the top of an active volcano in Guatemala; we toasted marshmallows over the lava!
The second most amazing thing I've ever seen is a miniatures museum in Kiev. The artist hollowed out the inside of a human hair and fashioned a tiny rose that fit inside it.
I also admire anyone who knows how to sail.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am an English teacher and a student of French, Russian, and Spanish, so I would be happy to help you with any language! I also love exchanging recipes, cooking techniques, and opinions about good beer and wine. I can also teach you to knit, sew, make American pancakes, and start a great campfire.
