About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be curious, enjoy, respect.

ABOUT ME

In a grad school program in political sciences in France, one more year to go before graduating in Latin American Affairs! Studies, but also non-formal education (vounteering) or visiting friends gave me the opportunity to travel around in the past few years, and it's a pretty addictive feeling!
Looking forward to enrich by meeting people and sharing their views on life!
I'm also more than happy to share my own culture and travel experiences! I've lived in France, Spain, Germany, the US and had the chance to travel to/ visit a couple of countries in Europe.

PHILOSOPHY

Happiness will find you if you find yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can't host people right now, but I would be glad to be a joyful and interested guest wherever I turn out to be !

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We regularly hosted couch surfers in our shared volunteer's house in Spain where I volunteered for a year, same thing in the shared house I rented in Washington DC, and I had a great experience while staying at a host's place in Sevilla.

Interests

I'm interested in contemporary stakes such as geopolitics, social and environmental issues.

I also enjoy cooking and nature-related (sportive) activities. I practice trail running and water polo on the campus back home.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love cinema and it's difficult to give a favorite movie!
I could cite Ken Loach, Cedric Klapish, Almodovar, Kusturica...

Same thing for music, I'm just curious! Like reggae, dub, old rock...
Fascinated and attracted towards Latin American culture in general.

The Alchemist and The Old Man and the Sea are books I was moved reading.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

At the end of my voluntary service in Tarragona we did a road trip from Barcelona to Budapest with my amazing flatmates (who are from Walles, Denmark and Hungary).
We visited some amazing people, discovered new places on the way and did some wild camping.
It was a great last step for an amazing one year life experience !
