About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Traveling to Singapore & Japan

ABOUT ME

Although I grew up in France, Saigon s been my home for the past 10 years..
Traveling for me is actually more a mindset, and that 's why love to meet people from different places and hear about their life journey while am at home (hosting).
I used to be more the party type and go out at night, but now I'd rather seat and enjoy a tea on a sidewalk..
My friends say that I am easy going, but I can be quite strict. I love to practice tai chi, hang out to take pictures, walking, hiking... discovering other's people life and cultures. I am more of an observer.. I like to take the time to watch and walk around to get a feel of a place.. its people.. that s what I like about travel.. seeing life from a different perspective, more feeling, intuitive. Encouter.
I think CouchSurfing is great for that, as it is about people meeting people.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life mindfully!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw Saturn and its rings, one night deep in the moroccan desert.
I took the road from Leh To Manali and thought I was on another planet. Had a great time volunteering in Philippines smashing down houses after the 2013 earthquake.

Teach, Learn, Share

i teach web & graphic design, and I like to shoot films without purpose. I love to cook healthy food, I began to practice Tai Chi a few years ago and I really enjoy it.
I love to learn, specifically i am now interested in medicinal herbs, and photography and generally how to progress as a human being :)
