Strong interest in human rights, feminism, education, urban issues.
Starting a trip in Latin America to meet people, discover their culture and ways of life through traveling and volunteering.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've quitted my job in order to fulfill a lifelong dream: travelling in order to discover other's culture and make friends. I can speak Spanish, that's why I'm going to Latin American, starting with Mexico in late September.

Music, Movies, and Books

Approximately any music I can more or less understand the lyrics... in French/English/Spanish.
I'm fond of indie movies that relate social events, from day-to-day lives to biopics of interesting people (Mommy by Dolan, Persepolis for instance). I also like watching classical and musical comedies (12 Angry Men, Chaplin ones, Singin in the Rain), animated films (Disney classics and Miyazaki's ones) and science-fiction ones (2001: A Space Odyssee, Star Wars, Matrix...)
The same idea with books, especially the ones that enable me to discover others' culture and biographies (I love graphic comics such as Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi and Catel's work, To kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee) . I am a great fan of Belgian-French comics (Astérix, Tintin, Gotlib, Bretecher...) and willing to discover others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've quitted my job to travel in Latin America and meet people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love drawing, all the more when I'm inspired by an experience (meeting someone, visiting some place...) and would love to share it!
I love learning a new language, things about different cultures, History, organic agriculture, etc.
I think education is a great mission that I wish to take part to, helping children with homework and with self esteem.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Drawings, passionate discussions about life, art, culture... Cooking recipes, laughing
