About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Sharing and learning

ABOUT ME

I love to read, talk, watch films and get to know new people, languages and places! I studied Law (for tree years) and I did my Bachelors in International Relations in Geneva, Switzerland. I'm currently studying European Studies in Maastricht.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couch surfing is a way to share and to learn, I try to get the most out of each experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed: I was three weeks traveling in Germany, and it was amazing! I got the chance to know much more about its culture, people and places. Thank you all! Hosted: I live in Maastricht (student city), in my last city, Geneva, I had couchsurfers from really differents places (egypt, hongkong, spain, etc) a great experience. Now my place is rather small and I can not always host.

Interests

I'm curious and I enjoy talking. I like all kind of literature and cultural activities, but I also enjoy to go for a walk, or a run (trying to become more healthy through sports!). my favorite books : all Camus's books, I like also Max Frisch, Oliverio Girondo, Franz Kafka, Arthur Rimbaud, Noam Chomsky.. in fact.. I enjoy reading almost everything. :)
