A very open-minded lover of nature, but also a dreaming, optimistic and idealistic woman, in love with Humans in general.

I am now living in Toulouse, after 8 years in Paris and before that Normandy and Brittany.
In need of a break from the hussle and bustle of my Parisian life, I decided to go on a year long trip., which I've just come back from.
After sailing across the Atlantic in February with a great crew and captain, after spending almost four months in Colombia, 1 month and a half in Ecuador and after navigating on the Amazon waters, I have finally reached Brazil, my dream and goal country :)

I'm a true "people" person ; meeting (good) people is what has made my trip so special so far.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because there's no better way to discover a new place than by meeting people who live there. That's what makes an experience unforgettable. I'm definitely looking for exchange! Share of cultures, thoughts, tunes, points of view, ways of living, and tips or advice as for what to do/see in the new place I'm trying to discover, a good laugh, and if there's a free spot on your sofa for me to sleep, that's even better! :D

I'm not a big reader, mostly because I get easily distracted, but I've enjoyed reading some of Paolo Coelho books :)

As for movies, oh, so many of them. I'm not always up-to-date and there are many classics I haven't seen (sorry Star Wars fans). Titles of movies I've liked: The Swimmers, Tell No One, Amélie, Tomboy, The Intouchables, Love Me If You Dare, Inception, Juno, Polisse, Short Term 12,...
