Hi!
I'm Ingrid. I come from Mauritius Island and I've been studying in France for 6 years now.

After my 2ond year Master's degree in International Law, my boyfriend (Charles) and I got a bit lost about our future. Our encounter brought us to do what we both secretly dreamed about and didn't dare to do: stop following an already laid out path, and taking the risk to effectively get lost.

Doing that, we realised we were joining a great and unexpected community; we understood that we truly had the opportunity to choose, that we were all unpowered. Great News !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Getting on Couchsurfing appeared to be a perfect way to meet people wanting to share, from a couch, to ideas, to new experiences. I (Ingrid) was already registred (for an old journey) - we just decided to bring a new life to my profile !

I can't accept guests for now, as I left my appartment to travel for some months in South America !

Interests

We are both really curious, mostly about people, and the way each of us contemplate life.
We also love biking, hiking (soft ones !), reading. Charles spends a lot of time in antique shops and on flea markets. Ingrid comes from a tropical Island so she is happy whenever there is sun, and even more when there is sun and see.
