ABOUT ME
Current Mission: After 7 incredible years soaking up the vibrant culture of Mexico, my partner Luis and I are embarking on a 3-month journey across Asia before heading to Europe for a new professional chapter. Our goal? To connect with locals, exchange stories, and discover the soul of each country we visit.

Flor : I am a nomad at heart and a professional wellness practitioner. For the last 4 years, I’ve been running my own business as a massage therapist and Reiki practitioner. I have a thirst for learning—I’m always diving into new skills, lately focusing on holistic well-being.

I’ve been a "backpacker" since I was 23, often settling in countries for long periods to truly live them, not just visit them. I even wrote a book (in French) about my 10 years of adventures! I’m pluridisciplinary: I’ve worked as a kindergarten teacher and an event organizer. I love community life and I’m often the one "leading" the fun, organizing events for friends or local associations.

Luis : Luis is Mexican and a trained chef (expect some great flavors!). He is a nature and plant lover, a sports enthusiast, and a very patient, gentle soul. He’s incredibly curious and always eager to learn something new. He misses his two dogs back home, so if you have pets, he’ll be their best friend!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To us, traveling is about humans. After years of traveling, I know that the best memories aren't monuments, but the people you meet. We want to share a meal, a conversation, and a piece of our cultures (French & Mexican) with our hosts.

Interests

Wellness: Massage, Reiki, mindfulness, and nutrition.

Outdoor: Hiking, climbing, snowboarding, and dancing (Salsa & Cumbia are my fuel!).

Intellectual: Reading, studying new skills.

Social: Organizing community events and sharing a good meal.
