About Me

My name is Caroline but my friends call me Caro. I was born and raised in France but I also hold Poland dear to my heart. In my short life, I had the chance to study and/or work in different countries across Europe and North America. Now in Canada, I'm working on making this great country my new home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think traveling is more than only sightseeing and following advices from travel guides. It is also meeting people. And couchsurfing is a great way to discover a place and meet people eager to share something. Whether you are a host or a guest, it is always an enriching experience.
