Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
With a curious and open mind, I try to learn everyday, with a big smile :)
ABOUT ME
I would describe myself as a funny person, calm, very easy going!
I traveled to 35+ countries and studied one year in the US and one year in Brazil, so I love diversity :)
I work as a management consultant
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am currently living in a small flat in Paris in the 17th arrondissement.
I tried to use couchsurfing last year in Brazil, several times, and for some reasons it didn't work out. My first thought was: CS has changed a lot, let's forget about it! My second thought was: be the change you wanna see in the world ! So I will try to give people experiences as good as I had when I travelled with CS.
Now that I've used couchsurfing for like one month and a half as a host, I realize that I receive like 1 message every two days, and understand more why it was difficult to find hosts..
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I used couchsurfing at least 15 times, for meeting people, crashing on a couch, and hosting.
Interests
Like most people that i've met through couchsurfing, I'm crazy about travelling, of course. I also love modern art, having a good meal with friends, nature, cooking, gardening, meditating...
- arts
- drinking
- traveling
- socializing
- business
- hitchhiking
Music, Movies, and Books
I really love music (rap, electronic, jazz... Very diverse)
I also try to go to the movies and the theater as much as possible.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I went from Paris to Istanbul by hitchhiking.
I did a very nice trip (alone) first in Bengladesh then in India for like a month and a half.
I travelled 5 months in Latin America, mostly in Brazil.
I lived on three different continents.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love teaching in general. I taught theater to kids in the US, art sport and yoga to kids in a Brazilian favela, French in Brazil also, and for three summers I participated in a summer camp as a counselor.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I love cooking! I can teach you how to cook a french recipe or two, however now that i became vegetarian like 6 months ago, it's more difficult haha
I think one my host still remembers the meal i cooked him from christmas ! :)
I would also like to know if you plan to do things together or if you prefer do your things on your own. Usually on weekends i'm happy to enjoy the city with couchsurfeurs, but on weekdays I can't before the evening
