Hi ! I'm Jeanne, a french backpacker 🇨🇵
I am looking for intercultural exchanges, sharing with other travelers. I use this website to be hosted and also welcome peoples at my place.

♌🦁

👉 A new place is available to welcome travellers since september 2019, this time in La Baule ! I would be happy to receive you in a little appartment located in the center of the city, near the beach and shops, foot distances 🏖
You'll share the living room with my cat Luna 🐾🌙

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

At first I used Couchsurfing for my lonely travel in Usa, so many nice peoples hosted me, I immediately liked to share.
Since that, I'm being hosted in my expeditions and welcome people at my place during their travels.
When I'm not on the roads, I always bring the travel to me by welcomming people from all around the world.
I love the possibilities of exchange because that is what a trip is made for, acording to me. Giving and receive back.

🏠 Hosting :
I used to live in a house by the Sea, so everything you see in the references before 2020 is past.
Now I can receive you in an appartment in the center of La Baule.

👣 10 min walk to the sea 🌊 and only 2 min from shops, next to the train station 🚂 and publics transportation🚍
I can welcome a couple or friends who are travelling together 🤸‍♀️
🛸 I don't have wifi or tv but you can enjoy my books 📚 I have a bike 🚲 you can borrow and you can even express your creativity with drawing and painting stuff🎨

Me and my cat Luna 🐈 will be very glad to welcome peoples who loves to share good vibes ☀️

If you have any questions, just ask ! 😊

Music, Movies, and Books

I was in the winter of my life
And the people I met along the road were my only summer
At night I fell asleep with visions of myself dancing and laughing and crying with them
Three years down the line of being on an endless world tour
And my memories of them were the only things that sustained me
And my only real happy times

I was a traveler, not a very careful one
I once had dreams of becoming a great aventurer
But upon an unfortunate series of events
Saw those dreams dashed and divided like a million stars in the night sky
That I wished on over and over again, sparkling and broken
But I didn't really mind because I knew that
It takes getting everything you ever wanted
And then losing it to know what true freedom is

When the people I used to know found out what I had been doing
How I had been living, they asked me why
But there's no use in talking to people who have a home
They have no idea what its like to seek safety in other people
For home to be wherever you lie your head

I was always an unusual girl
My grandmother told me that I had a chameleon soul
No moral compass pointing me due north
No fixed personality
Just an inner indecisiveness that was as wide and as wavering as the ocean
And if I said I didn't plan for it to turn out this way I'd be lying

Because I was born to be the other woman
Who belonged to no one, who belonged to everyone
Who had nothing, who wanted everything
With a fire for every experience and an obsession for freedom
That terrified me to the point that I couldn't even talk about it
And pushed me to a nomadic point of madness that both dazzled and dizzied me

Every night I used to hope that I'd find my people
And finally I did
On the open road
We had nothing to lose, nothing to gain, nothing we desired anymore
Except to make our lives into a work of art

"Live fast
Die young
Be wild
And have fun"

I believe in the person I want to become
I believe in the freedom of the open road
And my motto is the same as ever :

"I believe in the kindness of strangers"
