About Me

Hi folks!
I'm a French Girl studying Political Science and trying to make the most of my time by traveling as much as I can in order to see places I have not been to yet!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well first of all because the idea of meeting locals instead of just staying a couple of nights in a hostel is way much more appealing to me!
All the people I have met so far through CS were amazing and I have had such incredible experiences that I want to keep on doing so!

And as soon as I go back in France (to start my Masters in International Relations) and get settled in a new place, I will gladly return the favor and offer my couch!

Interests

I am into Sports. Like a Lot! I have been playing Basketball for 10 years now. But I also love Tennis, and Track and Rugby...
I skateboard and also snowboard as well when it gets freezing cold in France in winter !

I also Love music: I have been playing the drums for like 5ish years now. And I love all cultural things in general: I'm into photography (never travel without my Camera, and often since that is not enough, I also carry my GoPro because you never have enough pictures of the places you go to and of the wonderful people you meet!)
I also love movies and TV Shows and art, even though I am no expert I just love wandering around art galleries and museums!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: jeez such a tough question. I will go with the boring answer (but which is true though): I am pretty much into all kinds of music: from electronic music to rap, from classic to old rock and roll... I just love music.
1 band though: The Police.
1 song (well 2 songs actually): Heroes, David Bowie; Butterflies and Hurricanes, Muse.

Books: Harry Potter will stay the books' series of my generation.
But these days I mostly read essays about politics and history.

Movies: V For Vendetta

Tv Series: True Detective - Orange is the New Black - House of Cards - Game of Thrones - Scandal etc...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dived at the Great Barrier Reef in Australia a couple months ago!

Backpacked the East Coast of Australia by myself for a month last December.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learn: how to cook haha; the American accent; new stories about new people; special little things about the American culture; anything and everything you guys have to share!

Teach: a bit of French, how to play the drums, anything that I know that can prove useful to the people I meet!

Share: stories of my travels, and everything that I am passionate about (yes that also includes politics, but I can assure you it is not as bad as most people think ;)!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd say my cheerful disposition, my love for music and photography and travel stories, anecdotes and a bit of everything that I know and am passionate about! I am excited about learning as much as I can from all the people I will meet along the way!
