About Me

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms.” Thoreau

I live in ROME now, ciao bello.
I was back in hometown PARIS last year.
I was living in VIENNA for a year. Sehrrrrr cool.
My Mum is English.
I am also French.
French and English, what the fuck.
I think the wild is the most beautiful thing ever.
I love animals, all of them, specially cows and horses.
I say the word cool, a lot.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Awesome way to travel ! Meeting people and making new friend around the globe.

Interests

Wanna go into the wild, the real wild. Big dream is a road trip through North America, yeak ok, like hippies, in a kick ass van, so cliché - then up to Canada, and live naked in the snow. But lets start with Europe. Always wonderful people to meet and to share with !

I love to draw weirdly beautiful clothes. I have a scratch book, full of colors and paintings. And then I go to the market, buy material and sew. I finally have an old sewing machine and I'm very happy.
