About Me

Hola :)
My name is Marion and I'm 29!
My principal interests are people, photography, languages, music and communication in general! I like rollerblading, walking in the nature, meeting strangers and have amazing connections with them. I found some magic while travelling and I try to bring it back when I'm home... So I'm a curious tourist in my own country! :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new kind people and live amazing experiences! Mostly to surf abroad or hang out in my city or nature. I can now host someone too because I live in a big apartment with 2 roommates and we have a "couch-bed" ready for couchsurfers to come!
While I was in South America, I had the chance to be hosted a lot with a mazing people! In Ecuador, Colombia and Peru. I found the connections so precious that I'm willing to have more with new couchsurfing buddies in the future!

Interests

I love photography, it's been a part of my life since I was a kid. Right now I'm struggling a bit to find my way with this practice, but it's always something that appeals my curiosity.
I am truly interested in discovering news places and people in order to create and realize many different photography projects.
As well as photography, I like visual arts in general, graphism, and especially all the process of making a photography book from the shooting to the binding, not forgetting the image optimization, the layout, the text and typography! I would be pleased to encounter other people interested into all that universe!

Moreover, I love learning other languages. I can speak 5 languages French, Spanish, Italian, English, Deutsch, more or less fluently of course! If somebody wants to communicate with me, feel free no matter what language you speak, I also know some words in Macedonian ;)

Cooking is one of my favorite activity too. I love sweet desserts and will cook some for you with pleasure (if you accept ;) )

I also like going out with friends to have a drink or dance, going to the cinema, rollerblading and ice-skating, running, walking in the nature, watching series and reading books on photography or anything else!

Since 2017 I'm volunteering for various organizations in Switzerland, as social help is truly important for me.

I'm also a postcards lover... So if you're reading this, feel free to send me your postal address if you want a little surprise in your mailbox!
