About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm in Canada for a year (from May 2015 to May 2016) with the Working Holiday Visa. I'm planning to visit east of the country until september and then go to Montreal. I'll finish my trip in Vancouver.

ABOUT ME

I'm 26 and I'm French. From Toulouse.
I didn't start a real career for now, but when I work, it's in restaurants (as a waitress most of the time.)
I'm graduated from a catering school. Yes I'm totally obsessed by food.

What I enjoy in life, (except food!) is meeting people of course. Sharing, laughing, partying, cooking. I like the others !

Writing in my fresh new blog is my new addiction. Maybe it will become my job one day if I'm lucky. Please take a look at it if you want. http://ici-et-la.org/

And, right now, I'm in a travel phase. Of course it's amazing. Want to do that as long as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Have a slow life. Don't miss anything. Keep your eyes and your mind open.
And travel !
Don't work too much.
Eat everything, but with moderation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a newbie... For now, I haven't hosted anybody, and I haven't been hosted.
My travel experience is beginning now and I hope I'll meet a lot of couchsurfers during my trip.
Couchsurfing seems to be the perfect way to meet people and to discover a country, a city.. It perfectly fits with my travel philosophy which is learning from people about everything (and especially about Canada!) and having a lot of different experiences with different people.

Interests

Cooking, cooking, cooking. I spend the most of my time cooking for my family, my friends... And when i'm not cooking, I'm thinking about it !
Going to the restaurants is also something that I love !

I like to walk, in the streets of a big city or in the nature.

I like to party. But not going to the club. I'm more interested by concerts, laughing at a bar with friends...

Of course, I like reading and going to the cinema, but who doesn't ?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Toulouse, we were in the street, it was late and it was time to close the bars.
With some friends, we talked to strangers before going home, it was great.
And, this people started to make a song. They didn't know eachother, and they created the song without talking together before. It was really great because there were several languages, and several voices. I loved that moment !

Teach, Learn, Share

I live for sharing things about gastronomy !
It could be some good places to eat, or some recipes and knowledges about cooking, or anything you would like to learn from me !
