ABOUT ME

Few years ago, after I completed my study in Biology, I realized that I wanted to protect the animals I love so much, marine mammals, in a different way. Law was the better choice to reach my goal. So, I went back to university. I didn't expect to like it like I did. Of course, I had to work harder, but I found my place. I learned that you've never known what would be the next experience in your life. You might meet someone who will change your life just at the corner of the building. Who knows ? Be aware, open-minded and take the opportunities. Moreover, I want to travel as much as I can to meet people and to discover many cities. I am very sociable and generous.

PHILOSOPHY

I love life and I'm making it better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My fist experience was in Strasbourg and it was great. I was with two french friends and our host was very kind and gentle. So, when I was travelling in California, I did couchsurfing in every city I visited (9 times). My experience was completely amazing. I met many people that I would never forget. Every person was different and I had various discussions, sometimes funny, sometimes serious. When I'm talking with people about my trip in California, I tell them that without couchsurfing, I wouldn't appreciate my journey like I did. That was the better decision I took in this travel.

Interests

I have to stay active, then I do running, rock climbing, bicycling, roller blading, scuba diving. Also, I like to try new sports (like curling), anything that I can spend good time with friends. I started running few years ago, but everything changed last year when I did my first 10 k in a big event with my mom. I very liked that. The energy of everybody was motivating. In 2014, I have done 13,5 k in stairs and a half marathon. In 2015 and 2016, I participated at 6 running events of different distances.

Since I'd worked in coffee shops, I extended my knowledge and my tasting for café (latte, flat white, macchiato, ... like the third wave coffee's way from United States and Australia). For sure, I drink coffee every day, but I really like it (not just because I need it) !

I also like sharing a good meal and a bottle of wine (or more) with friends. I like to meet people and create an exchange of experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to try something new about music and movies. About reading, I'm very difficult. I love Patrick Sénécal books who is a french canadian author.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Vancouver is an incredible city. When I was roller blading in Stanley Park, I saw an amazing sunset on the sea between big mountains and sequoai forests. That was very beautiful, but the most beautiful landmark I have ever seen is the Machu Picchu in Perù. This historic site is fabulous. I've stayed there all day long (5 am until 4 pm), then I took the time to catch every moment and to put them in a specific place in my mind.
