About Me

I'm just a very curious and passionnate person ! I can come across as a bit shy and quiet but i do love meeting new people and i think there's nothing like long conversations about food, art, friendship, films, experiences and all sorts of stupid stuff.
I'm trying to live my life to the fullest and to enjoy any opportunity i'm given. Basically a kind of " you only live once" kind of philosophy ! :) I love travelling, of course, and i really enjoy trying out new foods (especially spicy food) and activities.

I'm currently living in London, doing my best to enjoy this beautiful city
As you can probably tell i'm really into cinema and all kinds of storytelling and art. I also like photography and drawing, music, etc. Also, i love nature so if you can take me on a discovery of the nice walks and hikes of your area i'll be happy (and probably not shut up about "how beautiful and cool this is !")

Oh and also, i'm french

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel and meet people ! I feel like we tend to forget how awesome it is to just talk to people we don't know and that's such a shame because everyone is interesting and has stories worth sharing. Also, it's great to get to know people from all over the world and to have the perspective of someone who really knows the place. Encounters add something really magical to travels.

Interests

My main passions are art and travelling. I am currently enjoying a gap year of studying acting and travelling around england. I love anything that has something to do with telling stories
And i really, really love food.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music : i listen to a lot of different things, but if i had to mention my favourite artists ever i would say Tom Rosenthal, Aurora, Nick Cave and Johnny Flynn.
Books : i don't read as much as i used to but i'm getting back to it. The last book i read was The Bell Jar which i really enjoy, and i just started the town in bloom by Dodie Smith. It's about a young girl moving to London to be an actor which i found...relatable :) i also absolutely love fantasy books.
Movies : The Holy Grail, Pirates of the Caribbean (yes it is still one of my faves), The world's end (anything by edgar wright really), eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, spirited away, The darjeeling limited, before sunrise, Inside Llewyn Davis...and so many others i could talk about it for days ! I used to study cinema but since i graduated i really miss all of it so i think i can get a bit annoying when given the opportunity to talk about films, because i could just talk about it and never stop.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
