Hi ! I'm Camille, a French girl traveling by bike for the very first time from brittany (France) to Amsterdam (in the Netherlands) to visit my brother who lives there. With this way of traveling, I want to enjoy every second outside and to move by myself !

I love meeting new people and discover new way of living because people makes places unique. I spent a year in Chicoutimi (Quebec) and then I travelled througt Canada from East to West by hitchhiking with 2 friends. We were staying at CS place and I loved this experience ! I also traveled by hitchiking around New Zealand last year and stayed some times at CS places. I met so nice persons and I found CS such a beautiful community that I want to experience it again, here in France, Belgium and the Netherlands, parts of the world that I don't really know well. I really like to share with people food and talks. I'm easygoing and always keen to discover new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is for me a different way of travelling : friendlier, more authentic ! It's a really way to meet people and share good time. I love discovering the culture of the country I'm exploring and there is no other best way do to it than meeting people.

Interests

I love theatre, learning new languages, litterature and Arts in general. I grew up in the French Alps so I feel like home when I'm surrounded by mountains and cheese. I like yoga, hiking, kayaking, swimming, drinking beers or wine, eating good food, listening to music, watching movie...

Music, Movies, and Books

Juno, Into the Wild, Le premier jour du reste de ta vie, Le nom des gens, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Truman Show, Hunt for the Wilderpeople (I love the movies of Taika Waititi and would be very happy to discover some other kiwi movies)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I paraglide up to the Annecy Lake !

I crossed Canada from Montreal to Victoria by hitchhiking with two other friends : such a long road !

During my hiking in Jasper (Canadian Rockies) I crossed in my way one black bear and one grizzly bear really closed to me the same afternoon ! During all my Canadian trip, I saw ten bears !!

Teach, Learn, Share

I think everyone is different and we can all learn about the others.

For example, I can teach you some french dishes.
