ABOUT ME

I am a 42 yo French Native Speaker, living in Spain to teach English and currently learning Japanese....Yup. I am fidgetty and I love my languages ! I enjoy meeting new people from different cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

mmm...."What doesn't kill you makes you stronger". I am a bit of a scaredy cat but I try to get over things. For example, I never felt comfortable in the water....there you go, I went to get surfing lessons !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am not always on CouchSurfing! I am an introvert who finds it difficult to find the energy to go out...but, from time to time, the social monster in me talks and I need to meet people!
I am also a very bad tourist. When I travel, I travel for a reason: a conference, seeing a friend, a concert etc... I am not very much into visiting stuff for the sake of visiting stuff. I prefer meeting people who live there and for them to show them to me, which I find much more revealing of the country/city customs than the buildings themselves.

Interests

I love flamenco, try to surf (very badly)as often as I can and enjoy hiking.
I am learning Taikon with @Taikomon
