Overview
About Me
I am an open-minded person with lots of curiosity! I have studied International Relations and translation, and will soon begin to study for a Master’s degree in philosophy.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Meeting new people, getting to know their culture, their passions, their life stories. The travels I’ve made using Couchsurfing have stayed so much more vibrant in my memory, because the places I visited were associated with new friends. Hosting has also taught me that showing a stranger around in your city is a great way to discover more about it yourself! For lack of space, it’s been hard for me to host these last few years, but I'm trying to get back at it.
As a guest, I’m very accomodating. I’d love to hang out if you have the time; if not, I can do fine on my own. I try to leave each place I go to a little better than it was before I arrived.

Teach, Learn, Share
If your are learning French, English or German, we can practice together!
I can show you some of my favorite vegan recipes; they’re all quick, easy & low-cost (and delicious, in my opinion)
Do you also love drawing/painting? If so, why not go draw together somewhere? It’s a great way to discover beautiful places!
What I Can Share with Hosts
My respect and attention, evergrowing cooking skills, an extra player for any sports/games you like to take part in, a helping hand around the house, my enthusiasm!
