About Me

I'm in my mid twenties. I graduated one year ago from a university in south of France with a master in applied foreign languages. I had many experiences abroad, especially in Asia, either through internships, working or just travelling abroad.
I really like to travel and even live abroad: meeting new people, discovering new cultures and learning new languages. I am passionate about working with NGOs and small scale organisations, especially related to sustainable development and ecotourism.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really like the concept of couch surfing. I find my travels much more meaningful when I can meet local people and exchange with them. One day when I decide to settle down and have my own house, I'll definitely become a host myself.

Interests

I love making handicrafts especially using fabric and also making jewelry. I hope one day I can start to sell my own creation. I also love being in nature in every way, that's why I love camping, trekking, but also tried rock climbing a few times and diving once.
I like DIY and learning to build things myself, one day when I have my own place, I'd like to use recycling and up cycling as much as possible and also have my own vegetable garden.
