About Me

(For Surfers: Please read the "My House" before sending a request :))

I am an outgoing, curious creature whose goal is to learn as much as possible.
I am keen to try everything ; I think that life is a precious chance to experiment as much as we can.

Meeting lots of people and their culture (especially their food ;p) is my favourite activity in the world. I love to have a good laugh and share funny stories. I feel comfortable with people from all walks of live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet a lot of people ; to have the chance to be hosted and one day, when I'll settle in a place, to have the chance to give back to the community and shake off weekly routine.

Interests

Everything can catch my interest but the most beautiful thing in the world is probably FOOD ; thank you Universe for all the chef in the world and their astonishing talent.

I love languages, I wish I could know all of them but unfortunately I'll have to choose. I learnt a bit of italian but forgot everything sadly and now my dream is to, one day, become fluent in german, spanish and hebrew but I just know few words in each of them

At the moment, I am crazy about ecological stuff and 0 waste philosophy, I am trying to figure ways to reduce my carbon footprint and I hope you can teach me stuff you know about it...

(update August 2022: I'm still concerned about the way humans are heading towards its own extinction but let's eat the riches first! (1% of the population pollute more than the 99% of us so.. Screw them)

My boyfriend and I goal is to find a piece of land and build our own self-sustainable, renewable energy powered eco-friendly tiny house. I know nothing about Permaculture and how to grow a garden, so this is also on my bucket list of things to learn...

We still have a lot of travel to do before we settle down in one place forever.

I forgot to say I'm pescetarian, I eat fish occasionally but no meat, but I absolutely don't mind if people eat meat around me.
