Overview
About Me
HI PEOPLE! I'M NOT LIVING IN FRANCE ANYMORE. SORRY EVERYONE, I'VE TRIED TO CHANGE MY PROFILE BUT IT KEEPS SHOWING THAT I'M IN FRANCE, BUT I'M NOT... Enjoy your trip and good luck with next host :)
24 years old, and already thinking I don't have enough time in life to do everything I'd like to... Life is short and there is no better way to enjoy it than travelling and meeting people all around the world.
I like to experience life in wherever I travel to, not the touristy spots but the intricate package of living in a place.
As a primary school teacher, I'm always learning new things from children, and one of the most important things they taught me is that growing old is mandatory, but growing up is optional!
"You don't travel to see different things. You travel to see things differently."
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I never liked people who told me I couldn't do something because of my limited budget, so in order to prove they were wrong, I always kept trying to reach my goals, to visit all places I wanted to and to do what I felt I should.
That way, I realised money is not important when travelling and that alternative trips offer you unforgettable experiences and values.
CS is within this philosophy, and it also provides you incredible moments with people sometimes becoming friends for life.
HOSTING: I host couchsurfers whenever I'm able to, I'll just ask you to be open-minded, respectful and a bit talkative. If I decline your request without saying a reason, think about personalizing your messages to next hosts.
SENDING REQUEST: I always read people's profile before sending request. I try to be friendly and not to disrupt anybody's way of living. Oh, and I'll be grateful forever!
Couchsurfing is not a way of travelling, but a way of living. :)

Music, Movies, and Books
Music tastes are varied and eclectic. I'm easily influenced at this point, so I prefer not to say "I don't like that kind of music/litterature/movies/etc", cause you never know ;)
Love talking about music or movies for hours.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
To follow my instinct has always taken me to amazing experiences. I believe in living life to the fullest, to give as we have been given, and dare to dream.
Teach, Learn, Share
My philosophy, as I say to my students: To treat others as you would have others treat you.
Learning from different types of people, especially those who challenge my perception of the world I know and expand my horizons.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Some of my craziest experiences, and appreciation of good company (I'd add tasty food, as I actually like cooking, but I'm not very good at it. So only for risky people, I'll give it a try!).
