About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel around the U.S.!!

ABOUT ME

I'm a young, dynamic, open-minded girl who is currently doing a teaching internship in Seattle, WA, but who is constantly looking for new places to go to and discover. I'm sociable, easy to talk to, respectful and interested in pretty much everything! I love to meet new people and hear all about their lives and country.

PHILOSOPHY

Always stay open-minded, spontaneous, and ready to learn or discover new things!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new on CS so I look forward to meeting nice people on my travels! I'm living with other people right now, so I can't host travelers, but I'm more than happy to meet, give advice or play the touristic guide for any one who'd like to visit Lausanne!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having vertigo, climbing the big pyramid of the Sun in Teotihuacan was quite an experience. The view from the top was priceless.

Teach, Learn, Share

I work a lot with literature and languages and would love to share my modest knowledge with anyone who would be interested. And as I said, I'm interested in pretty much everything, so whatever you want to teach me, I'll listen carefully!
