ABOUT ME

My name is Rachel, I’m 34 and I’m a social worker. I’m a smiling, sociable person who likes meeting new people and exchange with them. I’m naturally hearty and I like to have fun but I also like to sit down sometimes and relax. I like to have pleasant times with my friends and it often goes through going out or having a nice meal. I like to cook for people I like. This is also the atmosphere at home.

PHILOSOPHY

Regretting nothing in life and accepting your choices.
Don’t do to others what you wouldn’t like done to you.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I decided to register to CouchSurfing because since I became independent, I want to live my trips differently, to be closer to the locals and get off the beaten paths intended for the tourists. I really want to fit in as a resident of the country in which I go. That’s why I think going through CouchSurfing is a good way to start.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I travel and I host for several years now. I had the opportunity to meet people from all around the world and to embark on incredible experiences such as hitch hiking in Romania with an Israeli, ride a scooter across town with Vietnamese or just discovering my own town again with foreigners staying at my place.
Meeting people, especially locals, can only show you the good in people.

兴趣

I’m currently interested in photography that I practice occasionally, cinema, music, sports (hiking and I'm beginner climber). I also like to watch TV series or simply read a book. My living room is full of books. I’m naturally curious and I like discovering new things

音乐、电影和书籍

I listen most willingly British pop and rock such as Muse, Coldplay, The Beatles. But I also listen to other music genres, one of my former roommate being a DJ.
I like to go to the cinema, watching action but also auteur movies, comic as dramatic. It’s the cinema atmosphere that especially pleases me.
As for the books, I alternate crime novels, thrillers and travel stories. I also like testimony books and I expand my knowledge in social sciences with my work.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I hitch hike since 2015 and I had the opportunity to do road trips around the world with amazing social experiences.
And in 2020, during covid pandemic, I had the chance to do 3 lockdowns in 3 differents continents hahaha
