Originally from France (but I lived and traveled in a fair amount of places) and currently living in a ski resort in Switzerland, working as a manager in a healthy café. CURRENT MISSION Travel the world, discover new places and learn things from people I meet. ABOUT ME I love to meet new people from different cultures and backgrounds. I'm always keen for everything, I'm curious and love new challenges. PHILOSOPHY "I will go on adventuring, changing, opening my mind and my eyes, refusing to be stamped and stereotyped. The thing is to free one's self: to let it find its dimensions, not be impeded." -Virginia Woolf
Interested in Animals

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Because it's a wonderful way to meet open-minded people from all over the world and share great experiences.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: literally everything Movies: Captain Fantastic, Savages, The Fault in our stars, Lilo and Stitch... Very eclectic haha Books: Self development, Harlan Coben's books (I've read them all), The Alchimist, Le Petit Prince, etc Whatever your favorite music, movies and books are, I'm looking forward to hear about it !
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Travelled and lived in Australia for two years, stayed in a share house with 30 people while studying and met incredible new people !! Also got to see fantastic animals (snakes, spiders, sharks etc). I also traveled the East coast of USA while caring for someone in a wheelchair, which was a very good experience. Last summer I decided at the very last minute before my holidays to buy a bike and went road biking along the West coast of France and crash on people's couch along the way. Amazing adventure !
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you some french, cook some french food and especially I want to learn !!!
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can offer good company, stories about traveling, chatting around a nice meal or a drink, basically a nice time :)
My Interests
Traveling, food and sports (ski, dance, cycle, running, swimming, volleyball, surf, etc). I enjoy just chilling with friends, sharing a good meal or going out, laughing and having fun ! When traveling, I especially appreciate to see beautiful landscapes and magical places that tourists don't know about (kind of places that only locals can show you !). I also love animals (I used to volunteer at the local RSPCA in France), and try as much as I can to protect the environment.
