About Me

CURRENT MISSION

share my creativity and deformed vision of the world with every kind of people.
be healthy and use nature as much as I can to grow and cultivate a simple way of living.
LOVE.

ABOUT ME

I'm very passionate. Mostly about arts but as well in my relationships and of course about travelling, different cultures and languages, habits and traditions. I'm opendminded, I try to accept what's surrounding me. If it's there it makes sense. I'm pretty spontaneous, especially while travelling.
I have a part of crazyness inside myself and I learned to only use it for positive purpose. :) I try to be as natural as I can, to love and assume myself for who I am, as a basis of the love I want to share.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat each individual around you like you would wish to be treated.

"Happiness only real when shared." -Into the wild

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I percieve CS in the sense of karma. I give as much as I can to the people I host and I think that I'll get it back at some point from someone else hosting me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only good ones! It was great fun hosting travellers in Aix-en-Provence and Marseille, showing them my view of the city. While travelling in Canada I got hosted and even travelled with different people I met through CS. I made some real friends for sure and I'm really thankful about that!!
Right now I'm travelling in Colombia and the experience keeps getting better.

Interests

Arts and travelling are my passions. I spend my time expressing myself through painting; communicating with my art is what's giving me this enormous joy of living. Combining arts and travelling and touching people with what i create is giving me the feeling of total liberty.

I like cooking a lot and exchanging traditional meals from different countries. I stopped eating meat and I like vegan recipes as well, but I don't think I will ever stop being in love with seafood.

I'm practicing yoga and mediation and even though I love party, dancing and music a lot, I need the nature and healthy experience more than the big city polluted rush atmosphere.. I try to be as conscious as I can about my body.
