About Me

I am a young French girl, living in Paris. I am a dynamic, optimistic and curious person. I studied in a Business School and lived in New Caledonia and Madagascar during my school years, which gave me a sense of traveling and of adventure ! I like to have fun and to party, but I am also quiet and can appreciate to be alone as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe meeting locals is the best way to travel and to visit a country (to have personalised tips on interesting places, as well as to meet the local culture and habits). I also think that travelers are open minded people worth being met ! This way I am pleased to meet people from the Couchsurfing Community !

Interests

I am a multi-passionate woman (which is not so easy to deal with in the daily life), and in particular in OUTDOOR (camping and trekking in natural spaces, skiing, surfing, kayaking, trailing, etc.), MUSIC (singing, piano, guitar, as well as electro parties and DJs), PHOTOGRAPHY. As a good Parisian, I also like culture, art, gastronomy, but the main question with the week-end approching remains "Where can I surf ?".

I also like ECOLOGY and ENTREPRENEURSHIP and strongly believe in the social economy (as we call it in France "impact finance").

Music, Movies, and Books

My timeless favourite musics are Pink Floyd, Archive, Ben Harper, etc. I also like African Music, Electro, etc. One of my favourate book is "Dans les forêts de Sibérie" ("Consolations of the Forest"), written by the french adventurer Sylvain Tesson. Some of my favourite films are Myiasaki's ones, but I also like slapstick comedy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Surfing in New Zealand with someone I met a hour before on a car park. He lended me a suit and a board as I did not have ones !
