An artist, editor, and art mediator, I'm in the process of adapting to a new life in France. While it wasn't a planned immigration, I'm deeply interested in the local culture and society and eager to share my experiences with others.

I'm currently learning French intensively, so if you’re native speaker I would appreciate your patience during my practice :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that we can all contribute to each other's lives by sharing our ideas on how to make the world a better place, along with our stories and experiences. I'm very grateful for constantly expanding my worldview thanks to wonderful people, and I hope to be of help as well!

Exploring the architecture, history, and cultural life of beautiful Lyon! I can show you the loveliest countryside in the region as well, and if you’re into climbing and hiking, there are plenty of things to do.

Also, we do a lot of activities in the city during the study (artists' talks, theatre, workshops, etc.), and the teaching staff is sweet and knowledgeable, so most likely you can join us if interested.
