CURRENT MISSION

To wake up each day with still the excitement of a new discovery !!!

ABOUT ME

I am a physiotherapist, specializing in the field of research in rehabilitation (waiting for a PhD scholarship!).
I try to escape from routine experiencing new activities, planning projects, traveling... I am curious and I love the feeling of freshness, novelty, doing sth for the first time.
African dance, hiking, scuba diving are things I like.
I like sunsets in the silence of nature, having breakfast outside, eating a date before an effort and the feeling of putting down my backpack after a long journey.
I don't like hiking with blisters on my feet, spicy dishes that make me cry, waiting for a bus while I could walk and horns that wake me up on a sunday morning.
I really love to meet random people to share a moment with.
:-) A smile seems put on my face most of the time :-)

PHILOSOPHY

Live where you want, die where you must
Happiness only real when shared
You Only Live Once

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CS meetings, hosting and being hosted.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I experienced CS first spending 2 weeks in London : only hosted by couchsurfers. It was the beginning of great experiences to come.
I hosted then when I lived in Orléans and Tours.
I have been hosted many times while traveling, always impressed by how welcoming people can be and how quickly you can make new friends.
I am now back to Orléans with an awesome couch waiting for you!
