About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To ride a camel!

ABOUT ME

This question always embarrasses me, I never really know what to answer haha

Let's start with the studies, I'm studying the middle east area, but I'm interested in lots of things.
I guess I'm trying to understand the world as much as I can, I like to discover new places, new people, and to hear new stories. I'm sensitive to the refugees cause (what is the proper word?) and I show a special interest in social sciences and gender studies.
I have the chance to travel a lot with my family or friends! I guess one of the best things in life consists in sharing experiences and thoughts.
I feel the need to be outside most of the time, I'd rather have a beer with people than stay at home alone (well, this happens to be the opposite when I'm hangover)

I really enjoy going to parties, chilling at the lake, organizing huge apero,...Basically I'm just looking forward to LAUGHING, I love when people imitate accents, so if you have a special talent for this, please come to my place!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think CS is a great way of traveling, since I'm looking for the hidden places and the local tastes. And it's the best way to meet people who really know where to go, what to see and eat, etc

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm living in an old great house that used to host Voltaire's houseworkers in the late XVIIIs. Nowadays the house is full of students (we are 14 sharing the same kitchen).
We all feel very lucky to live in this unbelievable and beautiful place in the center of Geneva. Besides, we have a garden in front of the house, where we grow all sorts of vegetables and fruits, and we organize a lot of projects too.
We share great moments together, there always an available mattress in the corridor for people to join us!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In Berlin, Vienna, Prague, Israel and Palestine, craziest experiences I've ever had, some great moments I would never have had while staying in hostels!
