CURRENT MISSION

To surf the world!

ABOUT ME

Hey! My name is Chelsea, and I am an exchange student visiting Lyon, France from Los Angeles, CA. I am trying to visit/ explore as many places as possible before this wonderful journey ends (temporarily, since I will be visiting often-- I know it:P ) and would love to meet as many people as possible and exchange cultures! I speak French, but am in the process of learning more of the language :) Hope to surf your couch soon! ^^

PHILOSOPHY

"It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors" - Oscar Wilde

Carpe Diem!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am welcome to having coffee with travelers in Lyon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed around the Loire Valley once! It was a wonderful experience

Interests

I live for music! I play the drums, but also dabble a bit in piano and guitar.
I am very into animal rights and natural sources of food, as well as energy conservation, etc :)
I loveee to read! I am expanding my literature to start including French authors, but I adore a lot of American authors, like Virginia Woolf, Oscar Wilde, John Steinbeck, etc.

Music, Movies, and Books

Indie Music, Experimental, Rock n Roll (if I started adding bands, I wouldn't be able to stop) The good stuff that is real, and not Keisha-esq...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have visited Barcelona, Spain, and many locations in France. In North America, I have traveled around the West Cost, California, and Mexico.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love cultural exchanges! As am American, especially as a beachy Californian, even the way I communicate with others in unique with a specific type of lingo. Also, I am a lover of peanut butter. I woukld love to absorb more European culture, though.
