Overview
About Me
Hello!
I am a happy traveller from France and have grown up everywhere. I'm 24, passionate about life, dance, theatre, meeting people, climbing, yoga, writing and trees. I'm also obsessed with constitutional environmental law, but can keep that on the DL.
After finishing my Law studies, I started an independant theatre school with friends. Our aim is to explore performing arts in all its forms and create a 2 day festival to take on the road next summer - we're looking for a house to make all this more stable right now! We've put on a few shows whenever we find a space large enough to house us, and it's really exciting to see how we grow together, as individuals and as performers.
I'm looking to meet people and get to know their town, am tidy and very easygoing.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because I like people! I'm currently living in Paris on and off and would be delighted to show you around this beautiful city.
As soon as we find a forever home large enough for my theatre collective, our door will always be open to whoever wants to discover France, and play with us for however long.
Interests
I am interested in people, yoga, dance, the environment, climbing, law, music, learning, and theatre.
Yoga is a huge part of my life, and Dance is the light that waters my garden. Theatre is my everyday ray of sunlight and tango is a recent discovery I want to explore...
I love words. I love reading them, writing them, speaking them. I love playing with them, twisting their sound or meaning to shift the boundaries of what is percieved and perceptible. To try and bring a new light on meaning, or complete absurdity.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love hip hop, blues, gospel, South African choirs, Native American music, jazz, raga, and hang. I dance to traditional french and european music so it is a huge part of my life. I want to learn to play the concertina or the accordeon, but haven't got my hands on one quite just yet..
Alain Damasio is my Hero. The Invisible Committee and Paul Eluard are true loves, Terry Pratchett makes me daydream and Shakespeare is my BFFL.
Grief Is The Thing With Feathers by Max Porter and The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society are favourites, too.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've been to many places and seen many people, and I'm not sure how to answer this question.
I'm starting a crazy art project with some beautiful people and we're going for it with full faith in the Universe providing us with what we need when we need it. I'm scared of what may happen, and can't wait to find out.
Teach, Learn, Share
Guimbarde, musical instruments, yoga, travel tips and stories, time, secrets about Paris.
Creative moments. I can share some of my work, or we can create together.
A nature walk, hike, mountain climb.
I'll teach you to dance traditional dances from all over France, and take you to a ball if you so desire!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Anything I know about anything they want to learn. Food (I'll cook a meal!), laughs, stories, time. A cup of coffee.
Music! Poetry! Dancing!
