Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travel to countries profoundly different from mine, discover new cultures, meet new and exciting people!
ABOUT ME
I'm currently studying at university level in international relations and international law.
I like to discover new places and meet new people who have a different background in life than me and whom have different life experiences to share with the world. I'm always up for meaningful conversations about any subject, for grabbing a beer (wherever the place or the time), for having all sorts of meals, exotic or not (though I'm not that much into meat) and for playing games. I also like to think I have a good general knowledge!
PHILOSOPHY
Respect each other, treat everyone the same way you would like to be treated, be compassionate and don't miss an opportunity to discover the world (by any means) :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I can't host anyone right now, but would still like to visit hosts all over the world when such opportunities arise and spend time with them. And maybe I could host people some day, when I'll have my own flat!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I don't really have any couchsurfing experience as of now, but it's never too late to begin! I think it's a really good alternative to hotels, inns or camping.
Interests
I love art in general, especially cinema and music. I did a couple of movies back when I was studying film production at university, but now my interests are mainly directed towards watching movies. I also do photography from time to time (I even got a film camera, which I don't use anymore but would like to use again some day), read all sorts of books, from classics to more obscure literature, and stroll around museums from time to time.
Furthermore, I have an interest in politics, science, history and philosophy; I think I could sustain a conversation on pretty much any subject for hours!

Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach some French and maybe some English, and how to play a little bit of guitar (I've been playing for seven years but I'm not very good at it; I would still gladly share what I know) :)
I would like to learn some German, or any other language in general (though I prefer German, since I'm learning it right now)!
What I Can Share with Hosts
My time, my knowledge and (maybe) my soul. I'm also known among my friends for my sense of humor and my good company :)
