CURRENT MISSION

Travel in order to keep learning

ABOUT ME

Hey!
I'm Jade. I was born in Belgium but only lived there 3 years before moving to Portugal and then France.
I'm currently a student in a Business and Development school and hopefully after my master I will be working for NGOs in the humanitarian field. For now I've spent most of my summers volunteering for different NGOs but I will now have to consider finding an actual job... Which is a shame, because volunteering was one of my most rewarding and amazing experience so far.
I love to travel, mostly by myself because it's the best way to meet amazing people. I really now really want to discover sub-saharian Africa and Centra Asia.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I already surfed and now I'm ready to help fellow travelers to have a good time in Lyon. I would be happy to show them around if they want to. I really love my city and I would like to prove to everyone that France is not only Paris :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had an amazing time surfing in Rio and I got in touch with loads of very nice people. I think this is a great project and I am determine to make my part somehow.

Interessen

I love meeting new people, discover new cultures and traveling. I think it's the best way to learn more about the world and about yourself. So far I mainly traveled around in Europe and also in Nothern Africa. I also went to Japan which was an incredible experience and now I am in Brazil.
I like doing my part so I volunteer for two months in a turtle protection society in Greece and now I am running a fundraising campaign for an environnemental organization in Brazil.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I mainly like fantasy books and movies such as The Lord of the Rings, R. Feist and D. Gemmell's books.
Concerning music, I really discovered and love Latin America's music. Perfect for dancing but also chill.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Trekking the "Itajuru mountain" in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Quite an accomplishement for a non-sportive girl like me. Took us 7 hours, we suffered a lot but we finally did it!
