Bonjour !

Je m'appelle Marie, je viens du Val d'Oise. J'ai beaucoup vécu à l'étranger mais j'expérimente d'autres types de voyages depuis que j'ai décidé de ne plus prendre l'avion, et je voyage surtout pas mal à vélo en solo ou avec des ami.e.s.
Je cherche un job en ce moment et je partage ma vie entre activisme environnemental et petits boulots en attendant :)
A part ça j'aime le théâtre, je fabrique des vitraux, et je fais un peu de sport (parkour, vélo, escalade). J'adore aussi la plongée mais je reprendrais dès que j'aurais un salaire héhé.Je voyage souvent à vélo (en Bretagne <3), avec des ami.e.s ou seule selon les occasions, et je suis toujours heureuse de faire des rencontres en chemin :)
J'habite encore chez mes parents donc je ne peux pas encore accueillir, mais la situation changera bientôt j'espère !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet and share.
I'm incredibly grateful towards many persons I've meet during my travels (not only on couchsurfing, I'm quite new on the plateform), and I'd love to give it back somehow.

Interests

I read a lot, it's the way I found to travel when I cannot be on the road. I also write quite a lot (poetry, press articles, short novellas, travel diaries) with more or less success ^^
Eating is a real passion of mine, as is cooking =P
I've been part of a circus band for many years ; now I juggle a lot, and I'm beginning slackline.
Concerning sport I love biking (especially combined with travelling); wandering, and I've begun Parkour this year, which I enjoy a lot.

Music, Movies, and Books

To many to write them ! ;) But I love fantastic litterature (Tolkien, GGR Martin, Robin Hobb, Pierre Bordage, fairy tales of all kinds...) some french, german and english "classical" litterature (Balzac, Hugo, Dumas, Bronte sisters, Grimm Brothers, Goethe) and other (Dominique Lapierre, Khaled Hosseini...). I also read poetry (french and german, as I don't have the skills to read it in other languages, but would love to),
Concerning movies, I love as well lots of different things. One of the most beautiful I saw lately is called "Mustang" ; but I love very different things from huge Hollywood movie (Star Wars for instance) to japanese animated films (Isao Takahata, Hayao Miyazaki) and french old movies (with Belmondo...), among many others...
For music: some french music oldies,rock, jazz... all kinds of music as soon as I like it (I've sometimes some very questionable tastes) ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Faire de l'urbex dans des endroits quasi hantés: des salles de bal, des châteaux en ruine, des villages fantômes...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm living in Bishkek for the next few months. Since I live in a shared flat and I have to travel a bit, it's better if you ask last minute (long time before is also fine but we might have to cancel if something comes up).
