About Me

Hello! I am a French girl going from Greece to India by bicycle with my Australian partner, Ben. It is a whole new way of seeing the world for us and we are really loving it so far :) We would really love to meet locals who teach us a bit about the country we are in and share smiles and good experiences with us, and I believe couchsurfing is the perfect platform for this :) We are easy-going people and super keen to meet people and help out for whatever needs be!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from all over the world :)

Interests

Travelling-biking, surfing, climbing, hiking, and lots and lots of food :) (this applies to both of us!)

Our best memories while traveling are often thanks to amazingly friendly, caring and generous people that we met on the road ! Just makes you think that the world is really a big community of people willing to meet, just have to dig into it :)

Music, Movies, and Books

The list would be way too long!! But on the top of my head, here are a few books that I loved: Shantaram, White teeth, Monsieur Ibrahim et les fleurs du coran, Ulysse from Bagdad, Three cups of Tea and many more!

I was also (am still a little bit) a massive fan of Star Wars :D

My music taste are various from classical music to good rap, old and new pop music.. a bit of everything depending on the mood really.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well.. Travelling by bicycle is amazing! A lot of amazing things happen everyday :) And when you are on a bike, I feel you are really learning to catch them all, even the tiniest amazing things :) That said, we also have days where its a bit harder to see the amazingness of the world.
A friend of a friend gave us this really good tip for not-so-good days: to paint the sole of your shoes in yellow, so you are constantly....walking on sunshine :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Ben can teach you how to set up a website, and a wide range of adventure sports! I can teach French, and what I know of Spanish :) We are keen to learn any new language, even just the basics - and any life experience, lesson, coming from couchsurfing members!
I can also teach you how to make really weird faces, as when I am really bored, it is a past time of mine (yes, yes I know, it's fun I swear).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Ben is a fantastic cook! We also share very widely and without any limits our cleaning skills and our smiles :)
