About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore, explore, explore

ABOUT ME

This is always a difficult question, but I'd describe myself as friendly, warm and outgoing. I like meeting people and am quite adventurous. I love traveling, exploring cities and seeing all that they have to offer.

PHILOSOPHY

Any time spent being unhappy is time wasted

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My current living situation doesn't permit overnight guests, but I'm 100% down to meet up for a drink, coffee, tourism, whatever while you're in Bordeaux!

Interests

I love to travel and experience new cultures through museums, food, local life etc. I'm quite obsessed with the French culture and that is I'm currently studying a Master FLE in Bordeaux. Running is my main hobby, it gives me a chance to clear my mind and of course get some good exercise! I definitely consider myself a "summer person" so if the sun is shining, I like spending time outside, whether it is a walk, picnic, bike ride, or just nap on the lawn. I also love pictures, so taking them and become a recent hobby.
