Hi!

My name's clementine , i'm a 19 years old art student at Estienne, an art school located in Paris where i'm pursuing a degree in illustration!

I want to travel as much as possible, for i discovered that it can be a huge source of inspiration, and i love hearing other's stories :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel, but not taking a plane, sleeping in a hotel for 3 nights and just come back home, because 1) i'm broke and 2) it's funnier to go on a little adventure!

Interests

I've been drawing since i was 6, and i decided to make it my job. That means there is a pretty good chance that i'll try to draw you!

I did horseback riding for 6 years, and stopped when i started to ride horses on the beaches of corsica, or (more EXTREEEME:) on a volcano in guatemala. Turning in circle in a riding school suddenly wasn't fun anymore.

I started swimming about two years ago to add an option to my high school diploma, and i keep going to the swimming pool regularly. Lastly, i've been getting a bit into yoga last summer, and try to practice whenever i have the time and energy!

Music, Movies, and Books

I LOVE hayao miyazaki's animated movies, they are the first things that made me thing about working in the art field.

Other than that, i can enjoy a lot of thing, but sturggle to watch anything too violent or scary. One of my favorites movies is Kubo and the two strings!

I used to read a lot, but pretty much stopped during high school, i started again when i discovered some good philosophy essays, and i started reading a bunch of comics and visual novels when i got into illustration school.

As for the music, i once again listen to pretty much anything, although i don't like rap a lot. I love to discover new songs!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to Mongolia on the summer of 2016 for a 14 days trip, with 9 days of horse trekking. Easily some of the best memories of my life!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about painting and drawing, and we can race in the pool! i'm also a vegetarian, so maybe i could show you some of my favorites meat free recipes?

I'd love to learn other languages! Even if it's just a few word, language can reflect so much of one's culture, it's great to immerse myself in it. I'd also love to taste the (vegetarian) dishes of your country!

What I Can Share with Hosts

My stupid jokes and drawings, my great love of cats, my story and a great curiosity about hearing yours.
