Overview
About Me
I'm a free spirit who's trying to enjoy life as much as I can. I especially love arts, astronomy, and .. bubbles! I enjoy every little things, I think little pleasures are really the best ones. Recently, I discovered that I like traveling A LOT !! My most recent trip, and also my first backpack trip, was in Frebruary 2014; I spent 7 amaziiing weeks traveling anywhere in Hawaii with a friend.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I always believed that humans all have something to share to others. It might be as some funny stories, some experiences they did or went thru, some values they have, or any part of their cultures. It might also be as concrete as food, meal, or books. Whatever it is, I think every human we meet in the whole world has something to tell us, to show us, to teach us. I'm couchsurfing because I want to be part of the place where I travel and create new affinities with nice people, and I'll be grateful for everything people will do for me, or help me to do. A special THANK YOU to everyone I'll meet in my trips :)))
Interests
I enjoy nature a lot. In my free times, the first thing I want to do is to go whenever I can see the sunset.
I've also started indoor climbing few months ago, and I love it. I would love to try rock climbing on my next trip. Whatever I do, I always need adrenaline. It can be bungee-jumping, parachute, or just some high rollercoasters; nothing is too high for me !!
I enjoy drawing a lot, especially mandala. When I have a pen in my hand, my mind goes on a trip. Sometimes, there's no word to describe what I feel, but mandalas help me to do it.
I'm also an astronomy lover. I'm passionate about the Universe and anything we don't know yet about it. I'm a wonderer, and I like to lay in the grass and learn about stars, constellations, planets, anything.
I am a really social person. I love to hear about others story, whatever it is. I think everyone as something interesting to say and share to others, all in a different ways. I think we have to listen carefully and open our heart to others, to understand the reason of why we met this person.

Music, Movies, and Books
I enjoy a lot of music styles, but I have to say .. I'm a 90's child... with the heart of a 70's. I enjoy the Beatles, Pink Floyd, Simon and Garfunkel, Lep Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, The Eagles ... and more and more. I looove 60's classic rock. The most "nowadays" artist I like are Mgmt, Alt-J, Passion Pit, Tame Impala, Florence + the Machine, Bon Iver, Jack Johnson... and more and more. I also enjoy hardstyle and celtic music ... ( I know, it's not the same at all. I said I enjoyed a lot of styles .. ;) )
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Last year, I've been at the Mauna Kea summit, a 14 000 feet high volcano in Hawaii, on Big Island. It is now a sleeping volcano, where the biggest telescopes has been installed. The most important astronomical discoveries, for the last 10 years, have been made up there. That was, for sure, the best moment of my life until now. I've been there for the sunset, and were bless to see the sun sinking into the clouds ... it's etched in my memory.
Teach, Learn, Share
I don't know if it can be consider as "teaching", but people often tell me that I remember them to enjoy the little things ... Little pleasures we forget to enjoy when "the real life" start to invade us daily. For me, life is all about nature, family, friends, and every little thing that can make us happy. Whatever is it. A wonderful sunrise, a beautiful smile at the grocery, a good song playing at the radio. Just make every minutes count, as if it was the last !
What I Can Share with Hosts
My favorite little thing to share, oh, so simple, so easy, are... bubbles. I often go in music festival during summer, and when I do, I always make sure I have my bubbles with me. You might think I'm crazy, but I promise you would be impress to see those amazing tricks I can do .. You would be just as happy as a child! Everyone love bubbles. :)
