About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Getting excited about work!

ABOUT ME

I'm fond of discovering, travelling, all that lets us to enjoy life and the world. I love sketching, painting, listening to music, making art with everything I can find out.

I still have a few years of studying to do (in French literature, arts...), and if you launch me on my research subject, don't expect me to stop! Also, it happens that i'm really into the tattoo universe, as an art and as a way of life.
I used to work for a living in schools and in an university library. No I'm waiting to start my PhD.

PHILOSOPHY

Always look at the bright side of life!

ALSO, and this is important to me:

-I'm now a vegeterian and I believe in cruelty-free, planet-minding food.
-I'm LGBTQI friendly, and wish my home to be as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can host whether i have time at the moment you send the request.

I prefer to sure to have time for that so it can be properly done: I can then welcome you, indicating which sites to go, to eat, to see, and so and, and even come with along as a guide :)

I love Lille and it'd be my genuine pleasure to make you discover it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been a CS member for over six years now, even if I haven't so much travelled; it's always a great pleasure to meet new people, to have the opportunity to visit a bit of their daily-life or of their way of living. I've been hosted in Liege, Edinburgh, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham, Bournemouth, Plymouth, and in Norway. I've hosted a few times as well.

Last year, i road-tripped through southern and eastern Europe, and even if i've stopped only at two couchsurfers's, it's been a real delight!

Interests

Arts of any kind (painting, carving, photography, or simply sketching), visiting museums, watching a great movie (and get to know the greatest directors!), chilling out with friends, READING (and writing, a bit, sometimes).

Getting lost in a giant city: discovering (life is way too short!)

Music, Movies, and Books

Jean Cocteau's works (to which I've dedicated my entire life); anything that could be interesting and fun.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There's no such a thing as "the most incredible thing i've done or seen"; a lot a small and insignificant events could be part of this description, and right now i cannot see what i could separate from my experiences as a whole: it could be my year spent abroad in England if we consider the amount of things done or seen for a limited amount of time, but it could be meeting this or this people if i have to consider one main event in my life. I'm glad i still have so much to learn, but sad that life is short; i wish i could do something extraordinary every day, or even, one day, make someone else's day extraordinary.
I've travelled a great deal in Europe and I'd be happy to share my experience with you if you wish.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can draw and stuff, i'll be glad to spend some time explaining or showing or it works, discussing art history; also, i'm fond of cooking, so if you want to prepare a meal with me, it'be a pleasure!

What I Can Share with Hosts
