I'm a person who loves visiting the world.

To sum up I'm a tour guide - lecturer, globe trotter who loves to meet people and learn about different cultures.

But I'm also a sword fightger (medieval western martial arts) and a former dancer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting with people from the country we visit is so important! This is such a great way to discover new places, new culture, and maybe new friends!
I can't see myself stuck in a lonely room anymore I need to exchange, to meet the world and share with people.

Interests

I'm a huge art lover: visiting museums, going to see an opera, a concert, spending hours in a city to admire some architecture, etc... That's the kind of things that make me as happy as if I won the lotery.

Three years ago I discovered medieval martial arts (in my school we use AMMRO: Arts Martiaux Médiévaux et Renaissance d'Occident but you might have heard about HEMA: Historical European Martial Arts).
Since I've started, it allowed me to open myself to new interests: history, sewing (we make our own costumes for our representations).
It also helped me to become a better person. Through the martiality of this discipline, I managed to accept, express, master my emotions.

And finally as I said earlier, travelling became kind of a drug for me. I feel the need to go abroad, to meet other cultures, to watch other landscapes, to see with my own eyes how amazing is the world and to hear with my own ears stories from people I meet!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love having long talks about mutual cultures, maybe a sword fighting initiation... I also ended up making a custom shield out of a toilet seat once!
