About Me

Well hello there!
I'm a Literature student from South of France that likes to travel (as much as my wallet permits it..), loves to eat, and is a bit too keen on drinking.
I love arts, and always want to know more about new cultures and ways of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have known about couchsurfing from a friend and it seemed very interesting. More than the price it is about meeting others, integrate, be part of another culture. In a anthropologic point of view this would be the best manner to learn about the differences and similarities between two countries, I am curious and longing to exchange with this new world full of history.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went with a friend to Iceland for two weeks, we had no tent, no money, almost nothing except our 25kg backpacks (of clothes and food).
We walked for hours, hitch-hiked when possible, had a serious car incident, suffered rain storms but damn, that was one of the coolest trip of my life!
People were so nice, even other tourists that brought us with them to visit the glaciers, waterfalls and volcanoes even if we smelled like horses as we could not shower. You could call it a hella adventure!

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn as many languages as I can, languages from Northern Europa, also I want to learn about the culture, the beliefs and traditions.
I can teach english, dutch and french, cooking meals originated from France and I'm a pro at making toasts.
If I could, I would also be very happy to make friends in the country I am exploring.
