About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Saving money to go to Indonesia

ABOUT ME

My name's Claire, I'm 22 year old and I live in Paris, France.

I can't really say "all about me", as the title suggests, so here are a few things that seem important to know and let know in a CS context :

I'm easy-going and can get along with pretty much anyone who is willing to share stories, experiences, opinions.

I do tend to make jokes and puns a lot.

I love food. Cooking it, eating it, sharing it, hunting it if I have to.

I'm severely addicted to coffee and won't be very sociable until I had one. Generally not a morning person, though I'm not agressive. I just seem to be unable to make a full sentence before 9.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can sometimes host people, according to my roommate who often leaves for a few weeks, otherwise I might soon get an extra couch. Then I'll be able to host more often, but right now it's still complicated. I am a smoker but can deal with smoking outside if your flat's non-smoking (even in the winter), I don't have particular diets or anything.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was couchsurfing in Berlin with a friend (I didn't have a profile at the time so we used his) and it was a great experience with lovely people, so I decided to create an account.

Sadly I haven't been very present on CS the past year, and I let the profile unattended for a while.

I'm now back and fully operational!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Chicago, at its best : seeing a huuuuge storm coming towards Chicago while on the top of a really tall building, and seeing the skyline disappear in the clouds.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a pretty good cook, and willing to share what I make and (if interested) the way I cook it.
Also, I am willing to share my interests (Geopolitics and Social sciences)and exchange points of view.

Oh and I really want to learn spanish, I have only very basic notions
