About Me

CURRENT MISSION

discovering the world... and people living on it: globalization has not destroyed the various identities and personnalities, I want to enjoy that!

ABOUT ME

curious... I have lots of energy I want to spread and share with people.
I love being in the middle of nowhere, like in the mountain, sourrounded by sheep or cows.
What else could I say? just ask me!

PHILOSOPHY

See above... life doesn't mean anything if I don't share my emotions, my thoughts, my passions with people

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to share my flat and a little piece (at least) of my life with the CS community's members. I have so many things to learn from others, and I want to give/share what I can: a meal, a couch, my energy, my passions (about art, cinema, music, new concepts, etc)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted some different persons, and I was hosted some times. It was great experiences and I really want to go on! It's the world visiting you in your living town, and great discovers when you travel.

Interests

eating and drinking unknown, weird or good stuffs, cooking for friends, discovering new projects and dreaming about them (a new utopian community, a HQE house, a peacefull and brotherhood's world, etc), "art nouveau" buildings and objects, climbing, feeling free on my bike on the countryside, swimming in a cold lake or a river, feeling alone in the world, in harmony with nature in the middle of the mountains.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dancing traditionnal French "bourrée" in a small village in Bosnia with old Serbian persons who I made happy for one evening and who said that I was a real Serbian girl by dancing so!
And also spontaneous singing to answer to a Marocan guy playing drums on a "bidon" in the Atlas mountains
And the smile shared with an old Turkish peasant in the Kackar mountains....

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching is hard, but I can share my passions: cooking, art nouveau/architecture, traditionnal dancing and singing, Russian language and culture...
