Overview
About Me
**IN NEW ZEALAND AT THE MOMENT**
CURRENT
I am currently traveling with my best friend in a campervan in New Zealand. Feel free to follow us on our Facebook page: http://urlz.fr/4WJn.
ABOUT ME
I'm a friendly, curious and enthusiastic French traveler willing to do its bit to make the world a happier and more respectful place. I like trying new things, push myself beyond my limits, and learning more about almost everything ;). What drives my everyday life? Adventure, people, coffee and wine (only the reds) ! :)
THE QUOTES I ALWAYS KEEP IN MIND
=> 'The best way to predict your future is to create it' - Abraham Lincoln
=> 'If you think you can, you can. If you think you can't, you're also right' - Mark Twain
=> 'You must be the change you wish to see in the world' - Mahatma Gandhi
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Traveling and meeting people with different backgrounds and cultures is for me the best way to find inspiration and becoming a better version of myself.
To be honest, I have never used Couchsurfing so far, but I am sure we will have loads of fun together ;)
Interests
I definitely love traveling but you already know that. My friends would say I am a "reading freak". I also play the guitar and could sing a song to you (but only if you are nice with me ! Ahah !).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I would say that the adventure I am currently living with my best friend in New Zealand is among the best I have ever lived. Actually, three years ago I was literally my dream to visit New Zealand and now it is just the reality. As I could not miss this opportunity, I decided to quit my job and refuse a promotion in my company to concretize this dream, and after almost two months of travel in our campervan, I must say, this was the best decision I have ever taken in my life.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am very much interested in all kinds of handiworks (cooking, gardening, DIY...) and I really would like to know more about how to grow my own organic food.
If you also have some tips to become a more environmental-friendly person, I would be very happy to hear from you.
What I Can Share with Hosts
If you have the opportunity to come in Normandy, I would like to show you around and take you to the best places to visit. Normandy is a beautiful region full of history and I would be happy to share with you the way people live locally. And the food is amazing ! :)
