"Pour bien aimer un pays, il faut le manger, le boire et l'entendre chanter." Michel Déon, "To appreciate a country, you have to try its food, its drink and to hear it singing" could be the motto that follow me when I'm travelling...

"Travel","to be on the road", "to leave her confort zone" are words that inspire me...

A bit introverted, a bit naive, and a bit lost, I opened my eyes after my first "big" travel in Viet-nam in 2014 and I realized that the world is full of beautiful places, landscapes and humans...So, since then , my wanderlust is insatiable, taking my backpack as soon as possible, at every opportunity...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"Couchsurfing"? What is it? I remember reading text in my German courses when I was in highschool, thinking "woow this is so crazy, I admire the people who do that!"...a few years later, in 2015, a friend (thank you Audrey!) initiated me into couchsurfing in Montreal, and I experienced really nice couchsurfing experiences two or three times since then !

For me, doing couchsurfing is the best way to discover a city, a culture, feel the energy and vibes of a place, annd meet the Other human being !
