I spent the first half of my life growing up in the US. At the moment I currently live at the edge of Paris. I am principally a photographer/videographer and a writer, however I love to dabble in other art forms from time to time, because I don't think there is only one art form in which to express yourself.
I am a very laid-back and level headed person, who happens to have a highly energetic, adventurous, passionate soul! I love to take pleasure in the simple things in life, such as meeting new people, having a good meal and a glass of wine, going to concerts and listening to music, being in nature, and being as active as possible. And DANCING! I love to dance, I used to do Ballet and Jazz for years, and now I've recently taken up the Tango. I also love to go hiking and camping, doing yoga, playing all sorts of sports, and video games! I'm also a huge gamer, and even though I like to keep busy and active, I can always find a little time to kick some ass! lol
Before I moved back to Europe to travel I spent some time in the US doing concert, event, and fashion photography in the States, while and after I finished my degree. My ultimate goal is to one day write, direct, and film a movie of my own, and also do concert photography for larger bands all over the world!
I write a lot of poetry, and I've recently taken to writing short stories. I am an insatiable reader! I read everything I can manage to get my hands on, from biographies, comics, graphic novels, fiction, political journals, screen plays, newspapers, medical journals, etc! I am very passionate about political and social issues, especially those concerning inequality, women, education, and can spend hours engaging with others on their perspectives of those subjects to enlarge my own understanding while maybe broadening those around me at the same time.
As a fellow traveler I've always loved sharing my home when I am able with others and embracing new cultures, new ideas, and fun experiences.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

It gives me a chance to really engage with the people, cultures, and cities of the places I intend on visiting and to connect with people I might not have otherwise met! As long as I have a couch and a space that is my own visitors are welcome. I'd love experiencing new places more deeply than standard tourism allows and I love to open my home to those looking to do the same.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

Cooking is one of my passions, and I would love to teach and share recipes with anyone willing to listen to me talk about food and wine! I love to learn about anything and everything, however I really like learning about science, philosophy, and technology. I like to share my knowledge of art and psychology and experience/share new ways of communicating with people. I also speak french, and am learning Spanish and Italian, one of my life goals is to be a polyglot so I am very interested in any amount of other languages soak up.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I love cooking and I'm pretty good at it so, I will definitely cook a few meals in exchange for a place to crash! Also always there to be a dancing buddying, drinking buddy or just stay up and talk until the sun comes up.
