Overview
About Me
I am a French engineer in sustainable town planning (i've just graduated) and I love travelling and learning foreign languages ! So I try to discover new languages and culture by travelling.
I like to experiment new cultures : meet the local people, try the typical food and drinks, learn about the traditions...
I really love food and cooking :) so when I'll be couchsurfing it would be a pleasure to cook for my hosts !
I'm open minded and like to talk about anything, while having a good drink and listening to good music.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want to travel more on my own, and for this, I think the better way is to travel by couchsurfing! I also want to make new friends in the CS community, from many different countries if possible.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I had my first Couch Hosting experience which was great, and then I moved to many places for a while where I travelled quiet a lot so no time to host really..
But I've been hosted quiet a lot, especially during my nordic trip (Norway/Sweden/Finland) and I had so many nice experiences... It felt like you have friends everywhere in the world, and the only way to meet them is to... travel!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Roadtrip around Gaspesie (Quebec) in a old big car with 7 friends...
Living is in Italy for (just) 5 months was pretty amazing too :)
The half marathons in Paris and Berlin
My nordic trip which was a mix of a wwoofing and couchsurfing experience, and during which I had to learn some finnish despite this langage is pretty difficult :-)
Leaving in a finnish community for 2 weeks in an ecovillage
