About Me

Hi !
I am young woman avid of discoveries and adventures. I have travelled in different countries but now i wish to do it in a different way, by getting to know people from the place i visit. I enjoy life's diversity and i am happy to learn how people live and what passionate them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

-pour découvrir/faire découvrir les villes avec une perspective plus réaliste, celle des gens qui y vivent
-pour rencontrer des gens de partout à travers le monde
-parce que c'est une manière de voyager qui me ressemble plus : plus responsable et plus humaine
-pour voyager en respectant mon petit budget

-to discover an area with the people's perspective
-to get to know people around the world
-to enjoy a more sustainable and human way to travel
-to be able to travel with a low budget !

Interests

I am an outdoor lover : camping, hiking, canot, climbing, simple life and nature.. That makes me truly happy. My passion for beeing outdoor has brought me to study in that field, and I now am a professionnal in the conservation / ecology field.

Ecosystem discovery / plants and animals : I really enjoy discovering more and more about nature. I try to do it in an intellectual (books, classes, documentaries) but I also want to immerge myself in new places and ecosystems. I've been carrying identification guides around many hikes and I am always very curious to discover what grows where, how animals live and things that we can eat from the forest ! Harvesting and cooking forest products is a new hobby that I developped in the past year.

-I really like music and all forms of art. Drawing, singing and playing piano are hobbies that I try to have time for in priority. I really enjoy reading and movies as well.

- I also really enjoy cooking and discovering new ways of making my food more and more delicious !
-Environment / social justice are main concerns for me as an individual.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books : these days, books about plants, ecology, reflexions on sustainability take most of my reading space. In the past years, i really enjoy some novels, like Le Chardonneret, Dune or Kukum.
