Hi ! I'm Manon. I come from my beautiful Normandy in France. I used to live in Rennes (Brittany), Milan (Italy) and in Paris during my studies. I'm now degreed in art and culture so it's time for me to travel a bit around the world. I've started this year with a trip in New Zealand and in Asia. I'm hoping to meet a lot of people and learn about nature and ecology. I love music festival and cultural events.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I do Couchsurfing because I think it's the best way to meet nice people and have great experiences. Just talking, having a drink and listening to good music = the stairway to heaven ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 16 years old, I built a project with a few friends in order to understand all the challenges surrounding ecology and nature in India. We've met a lot of people and travelled by bike around Normandy to raise some money. A year later, we went to India during two weeks and we met incredible people who had a lot to teach us about ecology, respect and peace. It was wonderful, especially when we met individuals that were fighting against the government to stay in their beautiful small village submerged by water because of a dam.

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to play piano and guitar a few years ago, i'd love to learn again and play in a small band with some friends.
