About Me

Hello! I'm a French student currently living in the United Kindgom (Belfast) for a year as an exchange student. I've been studying political sciences for two years, and I'd like to work later in international relations, why not in an NGO.

I'm quite shy at first, but I really do enjoy meeting new people, especially from different cultures. I think it's crazy how much you can learn from other people, who might see the world differently than you. This is why I enjoy travelling so much. By living in Northern Ireland, I've realised how different can life be, even if it is not very far to where I'm from.

I currently live in a houseshare with 7 other people (from various places in Europe) but I cannot host anyone for the moment because it's not very practical (as you could understand with 7 people in a house).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here because I think the best way to discover a new place is to live the way people do in said country. I enjoy meeting new people and sharing experiences about places or even life itself :). And of course, being a student doesn't allow me to have a huge amount of money to do all the travel I want unfortunately. This is I try to combine the pleasant and the useful :)

Interests

I'm very interested in sports (huge fan of football) and politics. I also enjoy watching great movies and tv shows. But I'm more than anything interested in discovering other cultures and ways of life.
