ABOUT ME
I was born in Brittany, France and am now based in Edinburgh, Scotland. Designing for Performance is my passion; I create costumes and sets that try to be as environmentally friendly as possible as well as engaging the local community to co-create.
I like traveling a lot but much prefer staying in a country for a while to live and meet the locals and their cultures, and avoid to be the usual typical tourist.
I love cooking for my friends and I love crepes and cheese!
PHILOSOPHY
"Ne ch'eller ket livan gwenn war wenn, na du war zu. Pep hini en deus ezhomm deus egile evit bezan en e jeu. Manu di Bango"
(You cannot paint white on white neither black on black. Everybody needs somebody to reveal themselves)
Treat others as you would like to be treated
"All power is from within therefore under your control"
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've always been receiving friends of friends to stay at the flat over the years. Unfortunately the flat I live in at the moment is too small for visitors.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
When I first moved to Edinburgh, I surfed for two weeks before I could find the perfect flat. It was such a nice time and made wonderful friends. Then, I had a surfer staying at mine who ended up moving with us. I also couchsurfed when solo travelling in New Zeland back in 2010. Lovely experience.

Music, Movies, and Books
Films films films! Love gangsters film or strange arty films like Almodovar or Michel Gondry.
Live music is best, festivals, concerts even if I don't go enough to them! Classical, dub, teck, all goes as long as it gots beats and good rythms to it. Favourite of all are piano and drums.
A perfect Sunday morning is spent in bed with a book and a cuppa!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've moved to London as soon as I could to study Art and Design and never stopped exploring around.
