About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To grow up, discover and love.

ABOUT ME

Hello to all couchsufers! I love to discover new things and meet new people as well as enjoying what I've already found and the friends I've made :-) I'm traveling by bicycle since octobre 2014 with the idea to ride from France to China and study alternative education for my Masters program theses in Education Science. I'm a at distance student and can go wherever I want while studying, so I'm making the best of this occasion! you can take a look at my travel blog here: https://apprendreenpedalant.wordpress.com/

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm traveling for the next two years and won't be able to host people during that period. I hope that I can share a lot with the people willing to host me during my travel :-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Nashville TN is the most important.
But lots of great experiences. The first time I couchsurfed it was in Nashville and I ended up loving the town so much (thanks to CS) that I ended up staying there for 3 years! I hosted many persons during that period, but I still haven't surf as much as I'd like to.
