I was born in Paris, France but have lived most of my life in the U.S. Currently, I work as a marketing representative to extraordinary people, places and products. Formerly, for over 20 years, I worked in the Film Production/Entertainment Industry in Hollywood. My company not only produced TV commercials but also had the priviledge to design amazing attraction for the theme park industry. This career allowed me to travel the world, create wonderful friendships and challenge my dreams. Now, my aim is to return to Europe, work from 'both sides of the pond' and share my knowledge and experiences with others so that they may benefit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To find kind and interesting people who wish to discover all that is good about not only American culture but also the entrepreneurial spirt of a global traveler. I hope to learn from those I have the opportunity to stay with and be of a positive influence during my stay.
