CURRENT MISSION

Research, teach and learn about garbage. Waste. Trash. Rubbish. That's right, everything you throw away without giving it a second thought, I go dig and I'm weirdly enthusiastic about it!

ABOUT THE SIM VERSION OF ME (Only for Sims addicts)

If I were a Sim, I guess I'be:
- friendly
- light sleeper
- artistic
- clumsy
- good
well, and since I'm not a Sim... human :)

PHILOSOPHY

wow, we're getting to the complicated stuff here : ok philosophically speaking I would stand for the Utilitarian view (or at least consequentialism), politically speaking I'm in favor of the de-growth movement, and as for religion I don't have any. I'm a feminist and as a gay woman, standing in favor of LGTB's rights.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hosted quite a lot of people when I was living in Norway (2010-2013) and it has been a wonderful experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only surfed once until now, in Stavanger (Norway), and it was really great! But mostly I've had a lot of wonderful experiences hosting people from all over the world!

Intereses

Well I have a weird interest for garbage since my research area is focused on recycling, and I teach grad students on waste... so I'm always happy to visit incinerators or landfills - you may not know it yet, but there is probably a remarkable site near where you live.
And in much less weird, I love board games, beers, and playing the piano in trainstations (makes th waiting more bearable).

Música, películas y libros

well, of course, I'm French, so... French classical authors (Proust, Camus, Gide...) and movie-makers (Truffaut, Godard, Lelouch, Demy...)
International directors : Almodovar, Fatih Akin...
Got a passion for "Tales of the City" by Armistead Maupin
I do enjoy stupid romantic comedies,
and I love American TV shows (The Big Bang Theory, How I met your mother, Six feet under, The L word, Friends, Mad Men, ...)
Music: mostly stuff from the 70's and 80's (french pop music, Leonard Cohen, Simon and Garfunkel...I am sooo very conservative in this area, it's tragic...)

Algo increíble que he hecho

I went paragliding in the french Alps for my 25th birthday, it was quite amazing but one piece of advice: do not do it if you have motion sickness!
Ok now I just did another quite amazing thing and it's impossible to choose: I went waterskiing in the fjords near Bergen, I didn't manage to stand, but still, loved it!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I'm always glad to talk about my country/language/culture, be it French or Norwegian!
I also play the piano, and love jamming, so if you have an old trumpet or cello somewhere in your basement, just get it out and let's play together!
