I live and work and study (geography) in Lyon. I am French-american and grew up on the east coast of the US. Like my reference says, I am an introverted but if we get to talking you will realize that I have a lot of life experience and interesting things to say! I love traveling and sharing.

I live with my boyfriend and my cat.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am couchsurfing in honor of my best friend who passed away at 22. He and I were going to couchsurf in Europe in summer of 2016. He died from a hiking accident in September. So when I couchsurf I think of him.

兴趣

Right now, I am trying to focus on my creative side (esp. in video production, photography, graphic design, and music).
I also sing and play guitar. I love to travel, especially by hiking and camping. Being outdoors is when I feel the happiest and most fulfilled. Especially in good company. It is also where I find my spirituality.
I love to play board games and card games and meet new people!
