I am originally from Alsace, but now I live and work in Paris !
I studied literature and art history in Strasbourg and Dublin before moving to Paris to study museum studies in the Louvre. Now I basically spend my time working/volunteering for cultural associations (I organise concerts, workshops, exhibitions and cultural events), playing music (I take cuban drums lessons and play saxophone + drums in a brass band) and going to concerts/parties/cinema.
When I have time (and money) I love to travel... alone or with friends. My last destinations : Armenia (alone) and New Orleans (with friends) !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I have enough space at home, I like to host travelers and share moments and experiences with them during their travels. When I travel, it is always a great pleasure to meet people through couchsurfing :)
