Overview
About Me
Previous life: working for music festivals, art venues, artistic projects. Lived 2 years 1/2 in London.
2017: decided to become a social worker (then a social work teacher for a while)
2020 : moving to Canada!
I love traveling, music, movies, books, exhibitions, cooking, discovering new places, hiking (never been on a big hike yet), yoga, visiting Mother Nature... and obviously meeting people.
You can find me doing nice (?) stuff right there: https://www.instagram.com/_feel_your_senses_/
Or stupid stuff there: https://www.instagram.com/ju_octopus/
...Oh, and plants. I love plants. And T-Rex too. Yeah, dinosaurs.
In short: I love simple things, I'm a normal person ; a curious one, a complex one.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like to travel and couchsurf here and there, to meet people.
I've also met people in France and London for a drink or two when I couldn't host.
I have a guest room BUT I'm not super available these days so I can't always host... just give it a try if you want and I'll let you know!
I might be more available for a drink or to show you around
Also... I am currently organizing my move to Canada... where I might do some couchsurfing!
I had great CS experiences, and a bitter one in Berlin (bye bye my camera and mobile phone... loved you a lot xxx). But I keep hope in humanity. Well, at least I try.
Interests
Give me a beer or wine, put some Mamas and Papas' music, start a conversation about gender, normality, culture, boundaries, sexuality, dinosaurs, why cats are cute, how to prove the existence of unicorns, anything, really... and I'm happy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Visiting Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, the Spanish Synagogue in Prague, organizing a trip to Teufeslberg with couchsurfers, going to a 'kallbadhus' in Malmö... all the cities I've visited so far have beautiful treasures.
But I have to say that the 8 hour train trip from Oslo to Bergen, in April, in the snow... was f*cking amazing.
