Round glasses, mad hair, going uphill and down dale on my bicycle.
I have an unlimited interest for science-fiction, utopias and books in general.
I volunteer a lot and I make tons of things by hand.

Not accepting requests on couchsurfing but you might find me on BeWelcome https://www.bewelcome.org/members/emeline_b.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I became a CouchSurfing host a few years ago while living in Brussels. Some couchsurfers became really close friends. I try to always travel by Couchsurfing---It's just a lot more fun. I'm a very independent surfer by the way.
I tend to work a bit in the evening---if you want a tourism/visit companion, you should say so in your request, so I can adjust my planning, or tell you I'm not the host you're searching for.

I like sharing dinners and hot beverages and listening people talking about their lives.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Tons of :)
The sun rising on Saint-Petersburgh late in the day.
An impressive storm while cycling through Brittany.
Met one of my best friend on couchsurfing. And the friend of a friend of another of my best friend, whom I met on a forum when internet was still a nice place. Small world.
Tons of kilometres on bicycle/by train.
Escaped from a cult.
You'll have to ask :)

Teach, Learn, Share

TEACH
I know a lot about disability studies and activism. If this is not your cup of tea, try things related to history, sociology, crafts, or French.

LEARN
I definitely want to learn more about people's interest and lives.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Summary of current social research on lots of topics.
They say I'm really good at making people like museums.
I like to cook for couchsurfing hosts when that's possible!
