About Me

CURRENT MISSION

no missions, only experiences! Meeting people of all ages and cultures, drawing, travelling, thinking, sharing.

ABOUT ME

Hard to answer the question "what about you?"...
Which me?
The happy one, the serious one, the rebel side?
I'm 20, I live in France in the city I grew up, so I have a lot of friends I know for years. I live with 6 roomies, in a medium sized flat: we have to be in harmony to take it easy. And we do. This is great!
Other buddies are in colocation too, so we're a kind of huge family, but an open one. We use to welcome a lot lot lot of couchsurfers, some of them became roomies!
I started anthropology, politics and arts studies, but it's hard for me to focus on one mission, I'm too scattered. So I started to work, as a professional slave, in restaurants and bakery, to have enough money to travel.
My dream is finding alternatives solutions for daily issues: how to consume better? How to make culture accessible for all? How to make links between people?
I'm really interested in politics, in the philosophical way: organize social life.
I love drawing and taking pictures, reading, I would be a photoreporter or journalist, but only for fun.
I'm sociable, especially if I feel confident, with a weird sense of humor.

PHILOSOPHY

"Hell is other people" told Jean-Paul Sartre, an amazing french writer, philosopher, thinker, who were wrong ;)

Others are paradise, if you find the good people to live in harmony with. Everyone is an infinite world, and discover them is the best journey you can imagine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been a host thousand times and a guest once, in Buenos Aires, that was great.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We had so many couchsurfers. At least 100, really, in 3 years. In my ex flat, we had people everyday for several months. That was the best period of my life: I was just graduated and I was discovering life without my parents.
I felt so free, meeting nice people, hanging out with them, create beautiful links...
I had no couchsurfing profile so I'm sad to think that I'll never keep a relation with them.. But they extended my humaninty so much!

I love reading, my favourite writers are Kundera, such a genious, Sartre, Hayder, Mo Yan........ thousand others.
Movies: Brazil, Almodovar's staff, Inarritu's, Cohen's, Tarantino's, amazing work of Bill Plympton.... so much wonders in this world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well well!
I get in Argentine and I walked until a caterpillar.
I've been alone in New York by -20 in a short dress as I was coming from Buenos Aires, and people helped me by giving me their scarves...
I'm part of the happiness's home, we created a benevolent climate where people feel comfortable.
I met some of the greatest humans on earth.
I met hundreds people since 3 years thanks to CS!!
