Overview
About Me
Hi there!
I'm from the south of France but moved way up North to Finland to study, about 5 years ago. I have been living in various countries (Fr, Fi, Romania, Netherlands). I truly enjoy travelling, meeting new people, sharing experiences and discovering new cultures.
I'm easy-going, outgoing, open-minded, I like to go out, love adventure (the most unexpected ones create the best memories)... in sum: life's too short not to embrace it! I guess that pretty much covers it :)
"If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine. It is lethal." Paolo Coelho
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Many of my friends have been using couchsurfing for years, and they had amazing experiences and stories to tell. I thought it was time to give it a try! Plus, what a better way to discover a country and its culture! :)
I have been using airbnb for a while already, so you can see references on my profile: https://www.airbnb.com/users/show/18936272
