About Me

Traveling and language are my passions. I’m fluent in French and Spanish and would love to learn another one day when I have the time.

Right now I am currently traveling around Latin America :)

I am a pretty relaxed person and I can get along with most people. I love hanging out and meeting new people. I'm passionate about traveling and I want to go everywhere! When I travel, I like to stay for a long time to really experience the culture, but short trips are great too. I love being in nature, it makes me feel at peace. I do workouts, I run, and I sometimes do yoga. I really love literature and poetry and would be happy to talk to you about whatever book(s) I'm reading, haha, usually several at once!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love Couchsurfing because you get to meet other people that love to travel. I just started using the app but I've already made so many friends and received so many great recommendations of places to travel, and how to travel.

I love meeting people who are passionate about the same things as me and hearing all about their travels. One day, I hope to do a long trip only with CS, but for right now, I am just trying to get some experience with the app.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In the summer of 2017 I spent two weeks on a roadtrip with friends visiting all of the National Parks in the West of the United States. We went to Bryce, Escalante, Zion, Arches, and the Grand Canyon. We camped out in the desert, bathed in the river, and met so many different people and saw so many cool things! It's an experience I will never forget.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you English, haha! If you speak Spanish or French, I would love to learn from you. If you stay with me, I will eat dinner with you and show you all my favorite places in Nimes and you can hang out with me and my friends if you want. I also understand if you want to do your own thing, I know traveling can sometimes be tiring.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love to cook dinner and share a meal and good conversation with you.
