ABOUT ME

I have a French passport and mostly grew up in France but I moved and traveled here and there since I was born. I'd say I'm adaptable, easy going and tolerant. Although I like company and meeting new people, I'm not the one who likes to be the center of attention and I need some solitude. I'm of the adventurer kind, want life to surprise me and escape routine.
I can't stay in one place. I need mouvement, feeling the atmosphere changing around me, the food in my mouth, the air I breath, the language I hear, the landscapes I see, the people I meet.

I finished a Bachelor in Religious Studies a few years ago in Montreal and since I've been going around a lot.
I have spend time in Europe learning flamenco, in China practicing kung fu, in the Pacific sailing accross from Galapagos to Polynesia, via Easter Island and Pitcairn... I regularly come back to Canada to work.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted some people in Montreal, Canada and I surfed quite a few couchs in Europe, Russia, China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Uruguay, Chile. Also meet up for a walk, a coffee or a CS event. I've also been hosted so many time by people and crashed people's couches without using CS website, in Asia, Canada, the USA, Argentina by people met randomly in the road or who pick me up when I'm hitchhiking...
I host when I can and try to give back what the world gave me when I needed or when I was travelling; either couchsurfers or welcoming and generous souls.

I like this feeling coming from the breast, which makes me smile - a smile that I can't repress : looking outside a window and see a snowy landscape, seat in the sun, listen to friends laughing, walk under the rain listening to music, looking at a starry night, having the sudden consciousness that life is beautiful, achieve something I fought for, realize that adventure is possible, wake up smelling cake baking, ...
