My philosophy:
Respect others, be curious, always be open to the unexpected, give second chances, and take time to smell the roses !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To share and discover. When I travel, I expect to learn from other cultures, to be the closest I can to people - that's not easy if you book an organized trip!

Interests

Traveling, going to concerts, or simply enjoying a nice evening with friends
Mending and offering a new life to vintage clothes.
Avid reader, yoga & photography beginner, aspiring bass and gaelic football player.
I also like arts, crafts and DIY (from painting to building and everything in between!).

Music, Movies, and Books

I love industrial music, cold wave, rock music, but listen to a lot of different styles. I enjoy reading Poe, Beaudelaire, Kerouac & Palahniuk among others, and anything instructive on any subject, really... I also consume a lot of podcasts and documentaries- maybe you'll have some to advise me

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, this is a really subjective question... Let's talk and exchange about it!

Teach, Learn, Share

-> Share smiles, laughs, experiences, cultural views, conversations

-> Teach the fine art of the "apéro", pastry making/cooking , practise French/Spanish speaking, sewing lessons

-> Learn everything - I think anything can be interesting as long as you put a little interest into it, practising languages

What I Can Share with Hosts

A deep connection, meaningfull conversation.
A communicative smile. I know it sounds stereotypical but I think it's always a good start.
I can also try & make you smile with my cooking: baking some pastries (tarte au citron meringuée, éclairs au caramel au beurre salé...), or sharing a homemade meal with you (I particularly like cooking risottos lately).
I'd be sincerely happy to learn anything you'd like to share, and help out around the house
