I am an international PhD student from France. I grew up in Nantes (south of brittany) and did my education in Clermont-Ferrand (center of France) and Marseille (South of France).

I am very passionate by biology and by the human health in general which lead me to start a phD in microbiology2 years ago!

I am so glad to do a part of my education in the U.S., it's such a wonderful opportunity to discover the country and learn more about people, tradition and history.
Travelling is not something that I only like, but something that I definitely need. That makes me feel alive :-)

To describe myself, I would say that I am a sociable, easy going and always open to share a meal, going out, have a beer in terrace, ...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling for me is synonym to meet local people and exchange with them. And what a better way to discover a city/country than with the lovely people who live there?
I am not only looking for a place to stay but eventually going out/visit your city with you :-)

Interests

My interest are multiple. I am very curious person always down to try something new with awesome people.

If I had to cite some of them, I would say that I love Ballet and Classical music. It's a part of me. Unfortunately I stopped practicing few years ago. Instead I start running, it's help me clear my mind after a hard day in the lab :-). I plan to run a Half-Marathon in NYC in 1 month.

And of course, and I love travelling, meet new people, hang out with my friend. Enjoy a good meal in a Parisian café in good company, hiking in mountains and being outdoors in general !

Oh and I almost forgot I LOVE food. Especially cheese and chocolate, they are my weakness haha!
