About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Europe is my playground !

ABOUT ME

French - German thirty something who has lived in France (OK logic), UK, Italy and London. Very lively and always looking for a good laugh, I love discovering new cultures and meeting new people. For the moment settled in Paris (born there and partially grown up there too) but who knows where my journey through life could take me next.

PHILOSOPHY

No specific quote in mind right now but trying to respect others + live & learn?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd like to share the beauty and local tips of living like a true Parisian with other nations / cities. Having worked and lived in various cities (London, Milano, Nice, Berlin, partly St Petersbourg) I'd like to keep the experience of sharing and discovering going on across cities.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

absolutely fantastisch !
met great people with good minds and spirits.

Interests

Any types, shapes, kinds of creativity (but mostly arts, taking animation films classes).
Cooking (and not just French cuisine)
Urban gardening
Music, all kinds and yes classical too
Forro (Brazilian dance)

Not necessarily your average party girl but if the conversation's worth it, I'll certainly have another drink down at the pub !

I'm also a former baseball player

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm quite of a culture addict as I'm immensely curious.
Books: currently reading Zweig's 'Welt von Gestern' and flicking through a Bauhaus book

Music: anything from Verdi to Seu Jorge through indie rock via jazz. Techno music not so my thing but if you have nice stuff to share I'd be open !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going twelve times to Russia over the last 2 years including country skiing by -20c in the middle of nowhere north of Leningrad oblast (although for some of you this is 'daily' weekend routine)

Playing baseball as 1st base as the only female in a males' team in South London

Teach, Learn, Share

Risotto alla milanese (and how I learnt proper cooking with the Italians)
How to ride a bycicle in Paris
How to get started with Baseball rules (I used to play 1st base)
