About Me

I'm a 26-year-old Caribbean French who's currently working and studying music at the Jacqueline-Robin conservatory in Taverny.

I'm interested in contemplating the world and its living beings, finding myself, growing spiritually, and finding healthy ways of being/doing for myself and those around me.

I live in France at the moment. I've studied social sciences and sociology in Sciences Po, France, and African-American and Caribbean studies in Florida AM University. I have a master in Sociology.

I'm an outgoing introvert. I love spending time on my own as much as I like making friends. I prefer kickbacks over bigger parties but I can get crazy when the time is right.

My primary passion is poetry. I love all arts in general though, I like to find ways to express myself in diverse ways - singing, writing, playing the sax and the piano, dancing, drawing, ...

I've published a poetry book in French in 2020.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I try to step out of my comfort zone, experience and discover new things, new places, new faces. The unknown is both a source of fear and excitement that stimulates me.

Interests

I write. A lot. Poetry mostly.

I love music and playing with people in orchestras and bands. I don't think I'll be traveling with my saxophone, but we can sing and play the guitar if you have one.

My favorite sports activities are swimming, martial arts and hiking, and everything that glides of course.

I like talking with people about topics that could get us going for hours on end.

  • books
  • poetry

  • yoga

  • music

  • manga

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm into lots of genres except hard rock and metal.
My favorite movie is "Moonlight" by Barry Jenkins.
My favorite book is "Call Me By Your Name" by André Aciman.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Saw NYC sunset in a helicopter.

Teach, Learn, Share

We can talk in French or even Creole. I also cook Caribbean dishes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love (mis)adventures, surprises, spontaneous decisions, and everything underground. If you want to share a bit of your country, culture, lifestyle or habits, I'm always down. If you're more of an introvert and need your alone time, it's also totally fine by me.
