Hi there,

Currently? Travelling with my girlfriend :)

I’m a Frenchie who came to London (UK) right after graduation, where I started my carreer. Always in search of new adventures, I am in love with the outdoors, moving my body, living a sustainable and minimalistic lifestyle! Running while listening to music or a podcast is my meditation. Full of energy I vibe in busy environments. Also, in great need of some peacefulness, alone time, being in a bubble reconnecting with myself and collecting my thoughts to rise.

I have that odd interest of organising everything around me, declutter and planning stuff while living spontaneously! Also, always excited to create delicious plant-based recipes!

My interest in personal development makes me love giving myself challenges/goals, always. And I would put everything together to achieve them. And really into painting (any kind of prints)!

Everything travel related catches my attention, especially when travelling in “alternative” ways. On a budget, what are we gonna cook with those 3 ingredients we have in our backpack? Let’s get some wood or we are gonna freeze soon. Where are we gonna sleep tonight? What challenges are ahead of us? And who are we going to meet? Tomorrow is a new day and we are going to hike this mountain and watch the best sunset ever!! It makes me so happy and excited about life. To the next adventure!!

I'm eager to try out new experiences and learning from locals!

100% up for meeting up with locals + sharing unforgettable experiences :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing has always been a great experience to me!

Love meeting up with interesting souls from all around the world and hear incredible stories, sharing nice time and experiences.

It's an amazing way to get to know a place, locals and their culture!
I’m all about travelling like a local. Avoiding the tourist traps as much as possible! Where are the quirky hidden places? :)
