About Me

CURRENT MISSION

After 10 years of nomadic life, I'm stepping out of my backpacker confort zone and opening a new chapter : settling down in Colorado!

ABOUT ME

I'm very sociable. I love meeting new people and I'm able to speak with someone that I just met like if we knew each other for long time. I'm a dancer so I love music. I love going out, having fun but also share rare moment and speak all night about our crazy world and what we can do to make it better.

PHILOSOPHY

A problem is a problem only in the way you look at it. In reality it's just a fact, we create the problem.
Same with happiness, the happiness comes from the way we look at our life, no from material and gadget. When you get that you're happy most of the time :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

never host yet since I was a happy home free for 10 years but all this experiences as a guest have been amazing and I can wait to host now 😄

Interests

I'm a dancer, I love to improvise in the street with musician. But for me being an artist is also analyzing and thinking about art, I guess that's why I spent 5 years in university to get my master about performing arts (theater, dance).
I wrote two books (in french) along my travels, and I'm writing the last one these days (it's a trilogy). Since I live in the states now I got my 1st book translated in english.

Music, Movies, and Books

Terry Pratchett, Jean-Paul Sartre, Tom Robbins,
Dead Man, Terry Guillam's movies, Tarentino's movies, Pierrot le fou

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

burning man, hitchhiking 45000km (27000 miles) by myself, performing burlesque in San Francisco and Las Vegas, did twice a week of silence in a buddhiste monestary in Thailand (and I'm a VERY talkative girl)

Teach, Learn, Share

It's very important for me to give the same quality of attention to anyone, it can be a kid, a businessman or a begar. Human being can be so healing when you let him the space to be/express himself.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm very energetic and because the Life is pretty nice with me this energy overflow of me in a constant positivity and motivation for everything. It can be exhausting after too long but in just few days you should feel only the positives aspects ;)
