CURRENT MISSION

To leave the world and people I meet feeling a little less lonely.

ABOUT ME

I am Sophie.

My mom was born in Paris. My dad was born in Nebraska. I was born in Colorado and grew up in a hippie town. I'm an optimist and I like exploring and getting to know different cultures and people.

I love all types of art, music, and dance.

Je suis optimiste!

Ma mère est née à Paris. Mon père est né à Nebraska. Je suis née à Colorado et j'ai grandi dans une ville des "hippies." J'aime découvrir les autres cultures et faire des nouveaux rencontres, mais pas au niveau superficiel.

J'aime beaucoup de genres différents d'art, de la musique, et de la danse. Je ne me prends pas très serieusement car la vie est trop courte.

PHILOSOPHY

“May it be endless while it lasts." ~ Vinícius de Moraes

Soneto de Fidelidade:
"[...] Eu possa me dizer do amor (que tive):
Que não seja imortal, posto que é chama
Mas que seja infinito enquanto dure."

I believe in the principles of intersectional feminism and protecting the natural world from unnecessary waste and consumerism.

Lez talk about politics, philosophy, life, and love, ja?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Using couchsurfing while traveling in Amsterdam and Berlin made it an unforgettable experience and I cannot wait to start hosting people after meeting such wonderful and welcoming cs hosts.

I also love hosting my friends wherever I am living, so this is not too far of a leap.
