CURRENT MISSION

Doing a coast to coast in US!

ABOUT ME

Hi Everybody!

(Please excuse the mistakes of language =D)

We are two French girls (still students), two friends : Iris and Joy.
We have decided several months ago to spend all our summer holidays in the US doing a road trip! Our goal? Doing a coast to coast, starting from Florida in 2 months, but biginning with the visit of Big Apple, Philie, then Washington.
We are sooo excited by this adventure and we hope meeting a lot of funny and kind people there to discover this country!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short, we would like to discover the most possible things and people to understand where we come from, why we are in this world...

Joy : Carpe Diem

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since we arrived in US, 2 in Philadelphia and now we are addict of couchsurfing ! We meet so fun and nice people

Interests

We are both open-minded, funny and we love travelling and meeting new people! Iris grew up on a boat with her parents all over the world, so since her childhood travelling is in her gene. Joy enjoys adventure, discovering new cultures and learning languages.
We are a great team!

Joy is dynamic, she likes sports, she practices horse riding since her childhood, she practiced also gymnastics. Iris is more implicated in art, in addition with her engineer studies she's part of an art section (discovering sculpture, drawing, architecture, form design, photography...).

Also we love having parties, spending time with friends around a drink or going to danse!

Joy speaks a quite good english, Iris has more difficulties (if maybe in a first time you can think that I'm shy...it must be because I have difficulties to speak English! But I'm here to learn!).

So one more word to discribe you girls ?! :

Joy : I'm thinking about my futur studies, I aim at carrying on International Security ( to work in the UN, NATO or ... I still don't know).

Iris : I'm currently in a big questionning about human's origins (Big bang theorie, our place in the universe...) so I love having exchanges about philosophy, religion, art...
