Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that the best way to really experience a country is to meet locals and people for whom their towns are dear to their heart. I think it's by mixing in that you truely see the magic of a place. No high end suit can ever give the precious memories genuine experience gives.

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste in music is very broad. It goes from melodic metal to indie or regular commercial pop. I love traditionnal folk music. Otherwise my current favorites are psychedelic rock oldies like Jefferson Airplane and trip hop with a eerie vibe like FKA Twigs.

For books and movies, I like historical fiction, quirky underdog stories, fantastic series and musicals. I love poetry and reading plays scripts, even old classics like Phedre.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've attended two years in a row to a writting marathon between colleges from all my province. We had to write on different subjects for 24hours with short breaks for food and other needs like complaining about how tired we were. On the second year, I won a prize for my submission to the annuel countest going on during the event.

I also went to many drama festivals during college. The first year, my friend and I started singing ''Bohemian Rhapsody'' in a theater while waiting for the play to start... And we realized that the whole room under our balcony heard us and started singing with us. It was so fun and powerful to hear 500+ people singing along with us.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe firmly in the importance of our role as a member of an ecosystem. Nature play by rules we have denied and we pay the price. Understanding that our behaviours deeply impact the homeostasis that keeps us alive is crucial. That means understanding that human is just a tiny bit of a big whole world. Our anthropocentrism has to stop.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Besides my seriousness about human, women and animal rights, I am a very joyful, easygoing and curious person. The thing I love sharing with others is happiness and experiences. I love to laugh and have fun. Whoever you are, I am up for talking and listening to you. I'm also a good cook, so I can share food :D And I am an artist, so I can draw something for you if you want haha!
