About Me

2019/2020: TRAVELLING INDIA AND THAILAND

Easy-going and open-minded French girl, looking to meet new people and share about food and yoga!

Food is my devouring passion and if you feel the same, we're already friends!
I'm not talking about just "liking" food; I am talking about being so into it that you constantly want to know everything about the matter and will borderline harass everyone to get to learn more about the subject.
I love understanding how a culture works through what people eat, love to know how dishes are made, the way you eat them, the history of a local speciality. I want to eat at every secret food joints in a city.
I have a 10 pages' list of where you could eat in Paris if you're interested.
As you can see, I'm extreme and if you recognize yourself in these few lines, please get in touch, wherever you are. I WILL travel for food.

The other 50% of my time I am a yoga teacher.
I love sharing this passion and lifestyle with others. I'll be more than happy to share a yoga moment with you!
So yes, I don't eat meat and barely drink any alcohol.
No, I will not try to convert you.
Yes, I like going to bed early and waking up early.
No, I'm not rigid about it and can hang out all night long if we're having an amazing time.
Yes, I'm not into heavy partying anymore.
No, it doesn't mean I can't still have fun and be adventurous!
You do you, I do me. All in love and mutual respect.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm sorry but if you don't have any references, do not send me hosting requests. I won't be up for hanging out either. I don't mean to be rude but you need to understand that I'm a solo female traveller and need to protect myself. Way too many guys think this is some kind of Tinder zone. Spoiler alert: it isn't.

I sometimes don't answer all my emails and I apologize for that, but it can be very time consuming when you get 100 messages from people who haven't read your profile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing is a great way to meet people that know better than books what to do and what's good to see around. I love sharing experiences and listening to people stories. And if we can cook together local food, it's even better !

Interests

I loooove discovering new food (did I forget to mention it :D )! but also music, yoga, hiking, chilling on the beach, etc. And every new experience is always welcome!

Music, Movies, and Books

House music, indie rock, a bit of jazz, bossa nova.
Love sci-fi, historical and adventure/heroic-fantasy movies and book (I could talk about Star Wars and Lord of the Ring for hours)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I slept in the Amazonian forest, walked among penguins in Ushuaia, swam in natural rainwater pools in the Israeli desert, snorkelled and scuba-dived with turtles, slept in Wadi Rum desert under the stars

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll be happy to share my experience with French food and cook together if you also teach me a thing or two about your food!
I can also teach you yoga, whatever your level may be. Most of my students are completely new to this practice and I love making people discover yoga and break the stereotypes about it.
