ABOUT ME

Open-minded person, passionate with good food and travels !

PHILOSOPHY

"Smiling is the less one can do" used to say an old friend : so true...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Born and raised in Paris, I'd be glad to show my city and its neighborhood : for a walk, to visit a museum or give you some advice about where to have a drink or a good meal.

Looks like i recently became an "Amelie Poulain tour" in Montmartre specialist. Seriously thinking of getting a gnome garden for the next visits !

CS is also about discovering how people actually live in a place. I'm not the couchsurfer with whom you'll go to the Eiffel tower but can show you hidden places in Paris, or its popular side. I live in the 13th district.

I was born in the North and grew up in the East of Paris, which is also full of interesting places : the Buttes Chaumont park, everything around Bastille, the Père Lachaise cemetery.... These are the places (with the center, of course) that i know well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CS changed my way to travel : no more hotel-restaurant-museum-hotel ! To get to know a country, it's soooooooo important to meet people actually living there !

Interests

Arts and travels are what i enjoy most. Also interested in politics, cooking, music and eveything related to Asia.

I like to go from one place to another by walking and discover nice places by getting a little lost :)
