About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a curious and dynamic person, triing my best to be kind and helpful to people I meet. I love traveling as it is a wonderful way to discover new places, cultures, activities and most of all people different to me that will help me open my mind each day a little bit more. I'm always looking for true and authentic relationships, I do not care for having tons of friends but those I have are the most precious thing I have (with my family), and they give me the energy to pursue my dreams.

Concerning my interests, I like studiing as it is a way to better understand the world we're living in. I just achieved a double degree master in business and public administration at HEC and Sciences Po Paris, however if I had to start new studies I would choose art, history or philosophy. I also love sport especially outdoors ones, drawing and painting and music (I'm a poor musician - started playing the Clarinette a year ago and love it - but I enjoy a lot listening to it and am especially happy when I meet musicians).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm just a beginner and will do my best to become an active member.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Because I traveled a lot and met people on the road, I had some occasions already to accomodate or be hosted by friends in France or abroad. It's only recently that I discovered CS through friends and I am very excited of the new opportunities of meeting people it will give me.

Interests

Everything!...or almost. What I mean is that as soon as someone is passionate with something and able to talk about it he/she will be able to transmit me his/her interest.

Appart from that my main interests are:
- traveling and meeting people
- nature and outdoors activities (hiking, horse riding, climbing, sailing...)
- drawing and painting
- music (as I already told I just started learning the clarinette and I enjoy a lot meeting and listening to musicians)
- everything that has to do with culture (including history, arts, literature, music, traditions etc.)
- food,cooking and drinking (I'm French don't forget!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't know what can be considered as amazing or not, depends of one's point of view,
crossing the Altlantic ocean on a boat was a quite amazing experience for me, as well as for instance hicking and traveling in some very untouristy places in China on my own, staying with locals who haven't seen a western people for years...I would add cycling from Paris to London with a bunch of other people (almost 400km in three days) to raise money for a charity, it was a really strong moment of solidarity, sport and fun!
