About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hi there, I'm a French illustrator/graphic designer living in Melbourne, where I work as the art director of a magazine. I am pretty chatty, I laugh a lot and I like to befriend people from across the sea, or just across the street.

Most of the time, I'm an optimistic and positive person, curious and interested by others, whoever they are. I like to take on adventures, little and big alike.

Fun facts : I'm afraid of slugs, snails and worms, I have asthma when I laugh too much (which happens a lot), and I occasionally sleepwalk.

PHILOSOPHY

Always try to see the bright side.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
