About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Be happy :)

ABOUT ME
I'm a quiet, easy going and happy girl from Switzerland. I had several au pair experiences in England, Mexico and Sweden and I really loved that. It is such a nice way to discover a country !
After my childcare degree I moved to Stockholm for one year and absolutely felt in love with Sweden. I am now back to Switzerland :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have been surfing a little bit around but only hosted a few times as I was never living in a good place for it. Moving soon to a new flat so might start hosting again even if I'll be living in a small village without easy public transport solutions.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I had a few experiences in Copenhagen, Cardiff, Lyon, Stockholm, Bergamo, Brugge & Edinburgh. I have met really nice people using the website so I love it ! I've been using it less for a few years.

Interests

Travel of course. I am fascinated by Scandinavia and love everything about Sweden. I am also dreaming of travelling to South America.
My other interests are : music (folk music mostly but I enjoy almost everything) ; cinema ; going for hikes in the nature ; animals (dogs and mooses) ; food ; etc
I am interested in almost everything and I love discovering new things.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies : any except horror movies

Books : Rosa Candida, The Catcher in The Rye, The Bean Trees, Volkswagen Blues, La delicatesse, Joel Dicket, and many more... I love to read.

Music : The Tallest Man on Earth is my absolute favorite of all times ! Amanda Bergman, Tracy Chapman, Joe Purdy, Balthazar, Half Moon Run, Foster the People, Beirut, Ayo, Teitur, Bon Iver, Andrew Bird, Amason, Feist, Of Monster & Men, Moddi, Black Sea Dahu, etc etc
I am also a huge fan of Christmas Songs which I start to listen to in October ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Some on the best moments in my life :
- Hitchhiking from Lyon (France) to Stockholm with a friend.
- Spending 24h with a truck driver between Germany, Denmark, Sweden & Norway without sleeping. One of the craziest night of my life :)
- Looking for mooses at night in the middle of nowhere in Sweden with a lovely couple I met 1 hour ago.
- Diving in Jamaica was a great experience too, even though I got kissed by a huge jellyfish !
- A night with fireflies in Malaysia

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess I could teach french and also share some of my recipes.

At the moment I would love to learn more swedish but mostly be able to speak it more because here in Switzerland there aren't so many opportunities.

I love to watch people cook (and help of course) so I can steal the recipe ! I always find it really interesting to know people's favorite music, movie, book or place.
