About Me

Started to travel with my parents and my sisters when I was a kid, couldn't stop since then! Born and raised in Paris, I spend a year studying in Toronto, worked for six months in Kuala Lumpur and I am now on the road for 9 months visiting 15 countries with my best friend to make a documentary on food sovereignty and sustainability!

Travelling is more about the people you meet than the things you see! It is always better to get to know a country with the locals!

Easy going, I spend my time making jokes (it's easier in French but I'm improving my English humour), talking about movies, sports, comics and willing to discover new fields of interests!

My motto: Too much is better than not enough!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

You like French Crêpes? You've gotta tried mine ;)
All in to share my travelling experiences!

I did couchsurfing 3 times and always had a blast getting to discover the country from the locals perspective. Always better than anything you could get from TripAdvisor :D
