lI grew up in the south of France and decided to move to Germany for my studies. There I started to study French Media and Spanish. The differences in all these cultures fascinate me since I was a kid.

Next to studying and traveling I spend lots of time in sports (climbing, swimming, hiking) and painting. I really love the cultural exchange with other people from all over the world and their ideas of Art.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

2014 I moved for 6 months to Oviedo in North Spain where I got to know the amazing concept of Couchsurfing. I was hosted but I also host and it was always a wonderful experience! I really like this idea of social traveling compared to commercial traveling. So far I met very interestingly people and all of them confirmed my opinion that a traveler can explore much more and especially more “natural” aspects of a city or a country when guided by a local.

Interests

Me gusta aprender nuevos idiomas. Empecé el Español el año pasado, y también aprendí alemán, ingles y un poco de chino. Me gustan el deporte, sobre todo la natación, la escalada y caminar en la montaña, y el Arte. Pinto mucho y me encanta ir en museos y galerías. Me encanta encontrar a nuevas personas, descubrir nuevas culturas, otras maneras de pensar y de vivir, intercambiar ideas...

I enjoy learning new languages, I love painting, I love the nature, the mountain, being outside or going to the museum... But most of all, I love to know new people and discover new minds and experiences!

September 2015, I was working in an organic farm in Sweden. I learned a lot of things like milking goats, make some cheese, sell it, chop wood, paint houses, feed all the animals and all the things you have to do in a farm. I was enjoying the life there in the forest where I could also go to pick some blueberries and mushrooms.
