Although my friends say that I have a sad sense of humour, I am an easy-going and flexible person.

Generally, I don't like loud parties, I prefer face-to-face communication or activities instead. I enjoy hiking in forests/mountains or long walks exploring the urban architecture/street art. Additionally, I love modern drama (well, classics too sometimes), so if you know a good play in English or French near your place, feel free to share. Also, I'm a bit of a foodie, so I would appreciate your recommendations about the local specialities. Are you a gifted cook? That's perfect!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love listening to the stories and sharing the knowledge.

Interests

I'm passionate about the Chinese and Japanese tea. If you like, I'll share some Sencha or Maofeng with you! Sometimes I would draw comics about my friends.
