About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be myself,and try to understand this crazy world

ABOUT ME

Born in a small village in the countryside, I 've always been very curious about everything.
I am open-minded and I have always stupid questions to ask to stangers to know better their culture.

I live in Paris since 2004 and love this cosmopolitan city.

Above all, I love music.
I take some world music singing courses with an ethnomusicologist. That is so great to learn inuit, gypsy, russian, spanish, mongol songs...
I am the queen of the free concerts in Paris.

I am also very active in a fair trade organization. We have a shop in the 20th district and organize events, such as conferences ... not only about fair trade but also about big issues of this World.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

An Australian friend of mine introduced me to this amazing organization.
Whitout couchsurfing, I already hosted a lot of friends of friends of mine... from Latin America and Europe.
I participated to some meetings. I try to go as much as I can to the weekly meeting in Paris : Monday's quizz.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met really nice and interesting and open minded people thanks to couchsurfing from all over the world. I hosted some of them.
So far, for me, couchsurfing is a great experience.
