About Me

Usually I host. I'm on the road now, travelling in South America.
I am travelling a lot, whenever I can. Not easy to take a big break when you work all year long. That's why I decided to take 6 months off. During this time, i'll travel in South America to learn speaking in spanish, and, of course, spending time with my family. From november 2019 to April 2020. My goal : learning how to speak in spanish!

About me ;
Born in Nantes. Great city, you should visit.
Now I'm resident in medicine, working in labs. Living in the Alpes, Grenoble. Very nice, you should visit. There are mountains all around where I hike almost every weekend and during the winter I ski. I practice sport frequently. I dance (rock, swing ++, charleston, lindy, salsa ++, bachata, tango), run, hike, ski...

In 2012, I was in Erasmus in Oulu, Finland. That's where I learn my english properly. It has completely opened my mind and give my the "spirit" of traveling and discovering. Now I spend my days just thinking about new projects of trips around the world.
In 2014 I spend a part of my summer in London, working as a bartender and discovered the city. Improving my english.
Summer 2015 was an explosion! I went to Pondichéry, India, for a practice. We had the opportunity to travel through the entire country of India. Quite hard. interesting. full of people, religions, spirits, huge gap between rich people and poor mendicants.
Another opportunity in 2016 when I practiced in A&E in Réunion Island. When this practice finished and before I had to start my residency, I went alone in Myanmar and Thailand. What an amazing trip. I recommend to everyone !
other countries I've visited this three last years ; Israël, Majorca (spanish Island), Ireland (amazing). I also enjoy discovering landscapes around my city, Grenoble, full of mountains. So amazing.
Traveling alone is an experience you should experiment !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been hosted and I have already hosted. I like the connection we built. We know It's only for few days but I really appreciate hosting and sharing a meal or a beer with my guest. It brings a kind of travelling feelings and good mood in my house.
Usually, I propose my guest if they want to follow me in festivals, or hikes. And usually they follow me :)

I live in a shareflat. We are two girls. We have a room for guests.
