Overview
About Me
Hi! I’ve just finished a degree in French and Philosophy in London, and now I’m taking some time to travel and try some new things.
In October I will start a teaching position in Orléans, where I will try to host people when possible. I love meeting new people and hearing about their stories! Some of my best memories have been made possible through couchsurfing and workaway, and I want to make even more!
I enjoy hearing about people’s values and motivations in life, going past superficial conversation. I’m also interested in different ways of mapping the mind, and how we constrain ourselves and others without even realizing it. This is what makes me appreciate travelling, meeting people from different cultures, questioning things I take for granted. It’s also what interests me about meditation and other techniques for getting out of our own way.

Teach, Learn, Share
I can help you to improve your English or French... Cooking with other people and eating together is always much more fun, as well as sharing stories over a beer. I try to meditate most mornings and would be more than happy to do this together, if you've never meditated before I will give what advice I can. I'm just as happy to go out partying as I am just chilling.
