Hi ! I am Leïla, 35 years old, independent globetrotter for several years, I work with horses and am also a photographer and film director. After a few years working in Paris as a video editor, I traveled for a few years, lived several years in Canada and have been living in Costa Rica for a few years. I am now going on another travelling journey in Canada and hope I get to meet you!
I speak French, English and Spanish. I am neat, tidy and responsible, a non-smoker, and I love meeting new people and learning new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't have a very "classical" lifestyle and I don't particularly love going from hotels to hotels which I have done in the past while working on tours. Along my travels, so many human encounters led to amazing experiences and exchanges that I want to widen the range of possibilities to meet awesome people and share great moments!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was lucky enough to experience lots of crazy adventures, one great memory is spending time with gauchos in Patagonia, in the arid plains on horseback for days moving six hundred cows in very secluded places.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love sharing about what I do which is teaching communication between horses and humans, understanding more about our own non verbal communication and help people in life transitions. I can share photography and video tips and I know my way around marketing and creating websites. I can also teach French, Spanish and English. :) And some French cooking !

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to immerse myself in the culture wherever I travel, I am fascinated by how where we come from and where we live shapes who we are, how he behave and think. I love getting to know new ways of thinking and living.
