CURRENT MISSION

Be happy and enjoy every second of my young life !

ABOUT ME

I could discribe myself as a happy person: as I traveled quite a lot when I was a kid, I could realize how lucky we are in our developed countries so I try to enjoy every experience I can live. I am dynamic and curious, I love to do a lot of things (sometimes too much !)and you will never heard me saying "I am too lazy to do that" ! I am really open minded and love to stay with lot of different people, I talk a lot particularly when I am very interested by something but I can be a very good listener too and it is generally easy for people to open themselves to me.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't worry, be happy!
In an other way, I like to think positive: the world can be a wonderful place and we can work all together to keep it this way. I love my job in a Foundation and I am very interested in social business and the way everyone can be a positive changemaker.
My philosophy is to keep my taste for life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing is for me one of the best idea ever created ! It represents the generosity of the human being and goes against the "fear of the other", more and more common nowdays. This website make me dream about traveling all around the world and when I see all those people doing great things, I am very impressed but I think "yes, it is possible !"

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I did couchsurfing for the first time 5 years ago in Ireland. Seriously, I can say that couchsurfing changed my life: now all the world seems accessible with a great new way of travelling, it is the dream for me ! We had an amazing time in Ireland thanks to Hal, our host who made us feel like at home, we met some people from all over the world and then I knew I always wanted to travel like that !
I then had other amazing experiences in Spain, UK, Sicily, Sweden, Thailand...let's do it again!

Interests

I played the piano during ten years and I am singing in a gospel choir in Paris.
I am also interested in different artistic activities: I learnt difference type of dances, and I love to go to the cinema. I once had the chance to go to the Cannes festival, a unique experience!
And of course, I like to travel: it is one of the best gift in life and you always grow up after each travels.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't have a huge musical culture, but I like when somebody shares with me his knowledge! I could listen to a lot of diffrent styles: from hip hop to electro, from bossa nova to jazz, from indian music to rock, from celtic music to blues!

I am currently reading a book about Paul Watson and Sea Sheperd Organization which is very interesting. I will read K-Pax that somebody gave me, as I just saw the movie.

As french movies, I love the Klapish ones. Recently in movie theaters, I really liked Kings Man but also Mommy, which are totally different. I also love the feel good movies such as Little Miss Sunshine or NY Melodies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The sunrise on the highest road of the world (6000 metres), in Himalaya, when I was 11 with my dad; the evening spend with Jetsun Pema, Dalai Lama's sister, and all these incredible things I did thanks to my dad, when I took my travelling when was not even 10.
Then, I grew up, and discovered couchsurfing :) It was fun to unexpectedly drive a boat after a party at 6 am in Amsterdam, to swim with a turtle while scubadiving in Thailand, to hitchhike all around Ireland, to drive in a snow storm in Québec.
