About Me

Hello there !

On this profile you'll find someone deeply passionate about learning about new people and their own experiences of life. Growing up in a double-cultured house with a French mom and a Laotian dad, I've come to love the complexity of human nature and seeing how it manifests in anyone, as they are influenced by their culture, language and peers.

Of a very curious nature I love learning new things and have hobbies that go from sewing and retailoring pretty much anything a needle can pierce, to falling into rabbitholes on philosophical and sociological subjects. But most importantly I love to discover the world through food.

To anyone reading this little presentation, I look forward to meeting you ! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm travelling across Europe with my good friend Tim and making a few pitstops in Italy, Greece and Turkey. We're looking for unique experiences with amazing people along the way.

Tim is the guy you're seeing on my pictures, we've known each other for a few years but never really got to know each other very well until a random night about a month ago when he spontaneously asked me if I wanted to come travel with him for a month... And since then we've started this journey together.

You see, Tim is the kind of person you want by your side, the kind who's spontaneous enough to go live in Vietnam, Greece or Peru to discover more about the country and work on agronomy projects. He's easy going, always ready for an adventure and as we say in french a "bon-vivant" !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The biggest adventure I've embarked on was living in Shanghai, China for six months. I was surrounded by amazing people from so many different cultures whilst learning more about China's immense culture and history. It was a trip packed with suprises, great friends and amazing food. Amongst all of that I got to discover Shanghai's amazing night life and food scene. And to this day I still dream about the late night dumplings...
