My name is Florence. I am open-minded and definitely a travel-lover!
I come from France and after my university graduation I spent more time abroad than in my native country.
As a profesional translator, I like exploring different countries, lifestyles and cultures. That's why I have been working and living in different places in the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Through Couchsurfing, I had the chance to meet great people in different countries. I really like this special way of sharing and I always have good memories afterwards! :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did a 9-month European Voluntary Service in Estonia (2010-2011). This great experience motivated me to renew the experience and that's how I landed in Peru in 2023-2025 where I dedicated my time to 2 educational volunteering projects.

Teach, Learn, Share

Practice different languages and any of my hobbies :)

I would like to know more about native plants of Asia (to use in infusions, etc.)
