Overview
About Me
I love travelling and meeting people, I settled down in Southern France to bring up my daughter. I came back to France after living for 3 years in Scotland and 3 other years in England. Now I am back catching up with travelling.
I AM now living My lifelong travelling dreams .
I have been travelling since avril 2021 first in Peru and now in Mexico Guatemala, Colombia. Marocco Corsica.
I am also a bit of an artist I enjoy painting and writing , so I organize creative writing workshop pretending it's to stimulate others ... I also enjoy playing board games. Ceramics...
I enjoy living close to nature as I believe we are part of it like the rest of the living beings , so I love beautiful landscape, wilderness, animals, outdoor sports, plants...
I love music too and everything artistic really
I am a teacher for english and also french as a foreign language. But I am also a professional cookies and pastries cook, and now learning bio construction. I also do ceramics, meditation, Tarot readings...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I believe there are two good ways to travel one is by meeting travellers at home, the other is by going places and meeting people there. I would be dead bored in a 3 star hotel at the other end of the world and I'd rather sleep on a mat and exchange cooking tips or the ways of our worlds with friendly people in a "real place".
I love travelling and regret not having done more. I was about to go in may 2020, but of course my flight was cancelled. So instead of leaving for 3 months as intentionally planned I decide to go for good as long as I like and just live my dream. Tomorrow is more uncertain than ever, so I see no alternative.
Somehow I feel like I should have been born in a nomadic tribe, I long for discovering new landscapes and new faces. I am always curious to get to know more people because everyone is a universe of thoughts ideas emotions dreams, imagination... Victor Hugo said that people are like books, it's even more than that... but not just people I believe all living beings have something to share with us if we just listen and watch .
I had heard about CS , tried it and hosts with delight for the last 10 years or so...most visitors are now good friends.
