About Me

Well, where to start.... The basics:

I am a French teacher from Colombia who decided to take a gap year to travel that became almost two... Great time, great people I met. Then I decided it was time to go back in my country and work for a while and stayed there for a year and I realized my mind was getting kind of lazy and felt I wanted to study again and travel as well... So I moved to France. There I met an American boy (who by the way had been an active host in couch surfing) and I ended up moving to Texas to live with him. Now we have an adorable girl ;)

I guess I am open-minded, easygoing and patient if you want to read the good things to start. I'm very smiling, that's sure. The not-so-good things: I have often my head in the clouds and have a very bad sense of direction, which has a positive side: you discover unexpected cool places otherwise you wouldn't have seen...

I work full time but I can show you some places in the city in my free time. Houston is a city that can be interesting to visit if you know how to move around and where to go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When travelling it's much nicer and interesting to talk and share with people living in the area than to stay in a hostel.

When not travelling I enjoy just talking and sharing with different people and I like showing them non touristy places.
