About Me

I'm a French girl from Montpellier (south of France).
I've studied languages in Toulouse (France as well) before moving to Reading in the UK to do a masters in applied linguistics.
I've just finished a teaching qualification for secondary school and can officially teach French in schools which is exciting !
I'm now taking year off to travel and learn more languages (especially Spanish as most schools find it beneficial to be able to teach two languages) before I start my career properly.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I love to meet new people. What I'm looking for when I travel is to have interactions with wonderful and dynamic people who live there to learn new wonderful things and maybe to share some of what I have as well. However, it is hard to find such an interactive traveling opportunity in cold and solemn hotels, and youth hostels often only allow opportunities to meet other travelers. Couchsurfing is a wonderful way to meet locals, or people who live there, and give me a nice alternative to traditional tourism.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learning to dive on the reefs on Koh Tao in Thailand was definitely the most amazing thing I've done. It was like flying among rainbows of fish. Amazing! It was so great that I stayed longer and did my level 2 and I'm currently working towards getting some money on the side to go back do the level 3!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: French and English language, some really cheesy, beacony, potatoey, delicious French recipes, how to have cheese as a course ( with lettuce and red wine) etc...

Learn: anything really! I'm happy to learn any type of knowledge!

Sharing: some nice and funny work stories, some baking recipes and skills, some terrible jokes, some even more terrible singing etc...
