About Me

One’s destination is not a place, it is a new way of seeing things.

I'm a very outgoing and enthusiastic young woman !
I grew up in a small French village, spent my senior year of High School in the US and I am currently at University. After two years on the Euro-American campus of Science Po Paris in Reims (don't ask, it's too complicated), I am doing an exchange in Montreal ! My parents (how thankful I am!) gave us (my sisters and I) a nice foretaste of traveling and backpacking the world!
If I had time (and talent) I would learn every language on earth and immerse myself into the most remote and unknown cultures.

Personal philosophy ? ... None, still looking for one (or not actually!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is amazing.
It is fun, it is all !

I stayed with host in Amsterdam, and several cities in Quebec ... until I hit the road again !
I hosted people in Reims .. which literally changed my life since I met Philippe, from Quebec, who told me about his country, his culture and history and got me so excited about it that I eventually moved here !

Interests

Nature and Humans.
BOOKS, music and films.
I (try to) play the violin. I played basketball for years but am now a Rugby player (Oh Yea!).
I love spending time outside to do all kind of activities: hiking, skiing, camping, horse riding, swimming in lakes and rivers...
Food, Surprises, Travels, Cultures ... and more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in Wisconsin for a year !

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a Yukulele (two actually) and I NEED to learn how to play ! If you are a Yukulele player, you HAVE to stop by and teach me some tricks !
I would also love to try your harmonica if you have one !

I can teach you some french cooking and language. Life did not gift me with much talent but I can share the amazing experiences and opportunities I surely had and tell you about the amazing people I've met!
