Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
travel the world, meet great people, have fun !!
After living in Canada for 3 years with my boyfriend David, we decided to take a kind of sabbatical year and travel. Our main destination is New Zealand but on the way we want to visit some places like western Canada, Hawaii, Australia, south east Asia, quite a long list of countries where we would like to go :)
ABOUT ME
We love teaching and travelling. We like to go back to France in between two experiences abroad to catch up with my family and friends.
We love good food, and love cooking too :)
We are not much I to party although we go out sometimes with friends. We love outdoor activities (hiking, skiing, snowboarding). We love meeting new people and discovering new cultures.
PHILOSOPHY
Carpe Diem !
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
For my first Couchsurfing experience, I have been hosted in Croatia by very nice people and did some CS again when I was travelling. I think that's a great way of meeting people and get to know better "the locals" when you're travelling. I couchsurfed in Scotland, Australia, Malaysia. Met so many nice people through couchsurfing. I hope to have my own place one day and to host people!
I also find CS a great way of meeting people when you move to another country, it makes it easier to create a social life.
