ABOUT ME
Hi, I am going to Bali from 1st to 17th March on my own and I'm looking to hang out with locals or anyone happy to give me tips on what to do and where to go !
I have travelled with Couchsurfing in Brazil and Australia and had a great experience each time.
PHILOSOPHY
Life can be hard and unexpected events can turn everything upside down so I take the positive side in everything. I cherish spending time with the ones I love.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm a discrete person adapting to any environment. If I go to someone's house, I'm as respectful as I would like people to be when they come to my house. I can cook, clean and be of help as needed in my host's place.
I'm very curious about life, people, cultures and I love to exchange ideas and learn new things.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Last year in Brazil, I stayed with my friend who was backpacking with me at couchsurfing hosts in Sao Paolo, Itacaré, Rio de Janeiro and Sao Luis. It really helped making our trip about meeting the locals and not only other backpackers.
For it is the best way to travel with a real exchange.
Interests
I'm into arts like theatre, literature, painting. When travelling, I love walking to discover an area.
I do yoga, pilates and have tried learning to play drums. I started stand-up paddle in the Atlantic ocean in France and have done some in Brazil too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Moving to London on my own. Driving there from south of France when I was 20. Didn't know anybody. Planned to stay for a year and ended up staying for 9 years.
The second best was backpacking in Brazil, staying on a boat on the Amazon and sleeping in a hammock for six weeks!
