I'm Aurore, 22yo, a Belgian architecture student living in Paris. I've been living alone for 6 years, and like to travel alone and meet lots of people, hear stories, take pictures and visit buildings. I'm a dog person and I love music and art. I'm a food lover, a beer drinker and a party maker. I'm not peaky at all and feel easily at home. If you ask me what I drink in the morning I would say a big cup of hot water.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been sleeping in hostels for a few years and then I realised how much I need to bond with people. I'm an architect so your vision of the city is very important to me as I'm going to travel through your advice and previous experiences. The best way to visit a place is to talk about it with someone.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been travelling alone for 9 months now, living in Berlin, Barcelona and New York. I'm proud of what I've accomplished in this short time, pushing my boundaries to learn photography, play the drums, party alone and practise my drawing skills. I've realised how much I love people, I need this connection, to hear others' stories, to know their favourite tune, movie, and the best city spot according to their experience! We have so many things to share and I believe a random conversation can change my plans in life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you photography, drawing, sculpting something with clay or even playing the drums (I'm still learning though). I'm skilled in the Adobe Suite so if you need any design advice I'm here! I also like to have a deep conversation, as I'm open-minded and ready to share my point of view. I'd like to learn more about music, meditation, dance, cinema and basically what you're passionate about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to wander around the city and visit buildings during the day and come home early to cook and drink a beer. If I'm sure it won't bother you, I would wake up early to take pictures. I'm an early bird when it comes to photography. We can share meals, cooking sessions, drinks, concerts, board games, bike tours, city tours and deep conversations
