About Me

~ NOT HOSTING UNTIL September 2020, as I am traveling for now ~
~ LAST MINUTE REQUESTS PREFERRED (will most likely won't be able to give you an answer more than a week ahead) ~

I'm a French girl, currently living in Canada for my studies. Addict to travelling and spontaneous, I'd take any opportunity to hop on a plane and go discover a new place.
I am obsessed with learning how others see the world and understanding what they wish to learn from it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

If you expect something from society, then you'll be willing to give something back. I find it hard today to create natural and sincere relations when everything we aspire to has a price... To me, Couchsurfing is a genuine concept because it all the gathering of people who simply forget about profit and the rule of money and want to help each other out, share their home, meet individuals with different backgrounds, different paths and a different vision ... it isn't hard to contribute to this world with kindness and peace. And we all can learn from our differences. Learning and unlearning is definitely my drive in life, and I can use cs to feed this curiosity of mine.
I'm very keen to getting to know locals, share stories, and hopefully make good lasting friendships. I would also be willing to practice, learn, and teach languages.

Music, Movies, and Books

Please, no American comedy, other than that, anything really! I can recommend some great French movies.
Music: never know what to answer to this question.... My taste in music is all over the place. I love reggae & Arabic pop, reggaeton & electronic/hypnotic, little jazz, little rnb, little everything, depending on my mood.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nevis Bungy, the highest bungy jump in New Zealand! Jumping off the edge was to most terrifying experience of my life, but definitely the best adrenaline rush! I can't wait to jump again!

Teach, Learn, Share

PEACE PEACE PEACE.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, food, good wine and laughter. I'll make a tiramisu for you if you're keen!
I’ll be a fun partner to go out with, always up for a movie, a drink, a dance, a drive, or go on any kind of adventure.
