CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy that wonderful gift that is life!

ABOUT ME

French National but International at heart!
I've lived more than half of my life 'abroad', in Africa, England and these past years in Northern Ireland.
Wonderful to discover new cultures and so different people; really mind opening and helps put some things into perspective too!
Who knows where my nomadic life will lead me next?

Well, time for a little update as of July 2009: it looks like the next step of my nomadic life is now in Norway... and I hope to stay there for a little while as I love it! :)

Love traveling and music so trying to combine the two as often as possible. Whether music is a good enough cause to travel or traveling just a pretext to enjoy more good music doesn't matter as long as you just go and enjoy it and meet good people along the way!

PHILOSOPHY

L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux. On ne voit bien qu'avec le coeur. (St Exupery)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I participate by offering a couch to those couchsurfers traveling around my area and some info and/or advice when needed re. places to visit, transport, etc.
I believe that sharing stories, kind hospitality and tips and tricks about what to see and where to go can only unfold a few more lovely traveling memories!
I hope to also experience surfing some couches and meet great CS people on my next travels!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm fairly new to CS... although some years ago it used to be a common thing to offer your couch to little travellers or hitchickers you met on your path!
I've hosted a few couchsurfers and it's been a very pleasant experience... nice to meet people from different countries, share traveling and all kind of other stories, learn new things and... the icing on the cake: sometimes make new great friends!

Music, Movies, and Books

Eclectic tastes!
Music: as long as it gives me the goose pimples or makes me wanna jump everywhere and dance or provokes an emotional reaction or all of the above at the same time, I love it!!!
Without music life would be a mistake!
More or less the same goes for books and films!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My beautiful and smart daughter! ;)
I've done and seen so many amazing, interesting and weird things during my 7 years stay in the heart of Africa that it would be impossible to list them all.
I've realised a few of my life's big dreams; I am still amazed I was so lucky!

Teach, Learn, Share

There's always something to learn from any story or situation so if you keep talking to me about anything or everything I'm sure I'll learn something along the way...
As I want to learn the language, if you can teach me Norwegian you're welcome!
I can share my knowledge about all Office software (Microsoft Office Master instructor)and many web/graphic design software too (web designer too!). If you want to practice French no problem either!
