Hello there! My name is Oum. I am 23 years old currently residing in Toulouse.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I decided to join this platform after hearing so many good things about it. I think we are naturally very generous with others and really seek to connect with other human beings. I think a place like couchsurfing where strangers can come together to share some time and connect is a beautiful thing.

Music, Movies, and Books

My love for music runs deep and covers many genres. Among my favorite artists are: The Neighbourhood, Her’s, Skinshape, Melvitto, Frank Ocean, aftertheparty, Ceramic Animal, Jaden…

As far as books go, I like to explore fictional stories that reflect our world and reveal deep truths about it, The Giver is a great example. Some of my favorite nonfiction books are those by Yuval Noah Harari, which tell us a lot about history and give us very believable ideas about its future.

When it comes to movies, many gems come to mind: Mr Nobody, A Cure for Wellness, Black Venus, Snowpiercer, The Platform (El Hoyo)...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love connecting with people through deep conversations and getting to know their outlook on life while sharing my own and finding similarities. I believe this is how connections between human beings are formed and I feel fulfilled every time I can share that with someone.
