Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Enjoy life! (so little time, so much to do!)
ABOUT ME
My parents are both from Martinique (an island in French West Indies - Carribean). But i was born in Paris.
I left my parents home pretty early and, fortunetely, never had bad experiences. I had several flatshare experiences and keep very good souvenirs of all of this. I mean, good friends and good moments too.
After 2 years and a half in Brussells,belgium, i went back to Paris, France.
I like to meet people and have so many things to say!!! I love to discover other cultures and way of life. That's why i do my best to travel a lot and decided to host people.
I love music (a listen a lot of things... but not everything!) and assume to be an ipod addict!!!
I love sport : i do jogging and kick-boxing (but don't be scared! only fights on a ring!).
One of my dream is to speak fluently english and the other one is to live in California, a place i love. But it is quite difficult, long and expensive for a french nurse like me!!!
But, i think that when you really (i mean really-really) want something, you can success.
PHILOSOPHY
Life is short...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
An intense activity in Paris : i organise parties, meetings (at least one per week) and promote Couchsurfing.
That's why a lot of people think that i don't have life out of couchsurfing!!!
