Hi everybody, I'm Jessica, 27 years old ! I love cooking, eating, dancing and smiling.

I'm living in Lyon, but my heart is still a bit in Auvergne, where I was born (countryside, center of France).

I've studied languages and communication, which, after all wasn't too bad :)
I spent my last year of studies in Madrid, Spain. I met great people there and really wanted to continue this experience of living abroad. So I moved for almost 2 years in Santiago, Chile, where I worked as a travel agent and travel around Latin America.

After that, I moved to Dublin, Irlande where I also worked as a travel agent, and learn a bit how to drink Guiness, but this wasn't a really success..

Now I'm back in France, and still really enjoy discovering the world. Let's see what's next ?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just want to enjoy the best I can find in everything and everybody.
I'm new in CS but I love meeting new people, discover new cultures, speak other languages, learn new stuff and share my culture with others.

I've discovered Couchsurfing thanks to a friend (who later, became my husband) who has travelled around Europe and who loved that :)
He told me that it was a great way to meet interesting people so let's do it !

Interests

For all my craziness, I love dancing - I'm currently taking modern jazz classes but I used to dance a bit of salsa, rock, valse, etc).
My perfect trip ? Learning the local dances, mucics and trying the local food from each countries I visit ! Oh...and yes, I'm bit of a foodie as well :)

I also like cinema, music, nature, hiking and swimming.

Teach, Learn, Share

Smile is the cheapest and best gift you can give to someone., so I would love to share this with my guests and hosts.
If we are speaking the same language, fine, if not, there is always another way to understand each other.
