CURRENT MISSION

Seeing every bit of Europe and later the world

ABOUT ME

I am a very lively person never to be taken too seriously (I like irony so don't be too stuck up !), I am also a good "leader" who likes to organize trips, events and get things done which makes me reliable. I also don't know what the word "boring" means.

PHILOSOPHY

I am in a time of my life where I need to broaden my views, knowledge of the world and of the people before settling down somewhere.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to travel and to meet people from other countries. If I am in Strasbourg, I can show you around and maybe host you as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've tried a couple of times now in order to visit England and I really enjoyed it :)

Interests

I am currently working in the South of the Netherlands as a French teacher assistent and will be moving to Amsterdam soon. I'm fond of live music and go to concerts/festivals (Eurockéennes de Belfort, Southside Festival, Rock Werchter..). I also like cultural events of every kind, and also having loooong noisy dinners with loads of wine :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been hitchhiking through France last summer because I don't have the driving licence nor a car. I have been living in France, Austria, England and now I live in the Netherlands. I sometimes participate as a volunteer for festivals and used to be volunteer in a little theatre team (working on the costumes and scenery) as I love painting and creating.

Teach, Learn, Share

What I can teach you:
French language/culture (also cooking)
Painting/drawing (I'm pretty good at it)

What I am eager to learn:
I would love to improve my English, German and Dutch
I would like to learn Serbo/Croatian.
I would like to learn Salsa dance.
