About Me

I am a happy and conscious extroverted introvert who enjoys the little things in life. I love to recharge in nature : in the woods, the countryside, the seaside. You will see me exploring around with my camera. I very much enjoy good food, especially vegetarian and vegan food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Exploring another way to connect with people all over the world. I love to connect with others, listen to them and share stories about cultures, personalities, arts, travelling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have done a 4 days kayak trip with killer whales around Telegraph Cove, British Columbia.
It was fantastic to see killer whales, even a small one, coming quite close to the kayak!
