CURRENT MISSION

Travel, meet new people, learn new things

ABOUT ME

Hey everyone! I'm Chantal, I'm a French-American born and raised in Washington, DC (USA). I moved to France in 2013 to pursue my masters degree and i am currently working in Marseille. I have since caught the Travel Bug and crave traveling, meeting new people, learning and exploring.

PHILOSOPHY

"a journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had several awesome couchsurfing experiences, in Turkey and in France. I hope to get more good experiences under my belt :)

Interests

Aside from studying and working... i love to do sports (gym, running, soccer, swimming), explore the city to find new places i haven't yet been to (AKA getting lost), go to the movies and hang out with friends. I try to make the most out of my days and like to be busy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one?! Well backpacking South East Asia solo was a trip that i will never forget. All the places i've been to have had a valuable/memorable thing seen or done that will stick with me forever.
