About Me

I'm a very open-minded person and even if I don't have only qualities, I can define myself as emphatic, generous and welcoming. I'm paraplegic but I can walk with crutches. I have chronic pains so I cannot work, but I like to give my time to help associations. I have also long Covid so I'm extremely tired since 4 years. I'm buddhist and my faith is very important to me. It helps me to be positive. Everything we experiment in life can be seen positively, even the most terrible events. We cannot change the events that are coming so the only way to be happy is to change the look we have on it. I have a lot of respect and compassion for every sentient beings so I try not to hurt any of them and that's why I am vegetarian. I have a dog. My boyfriend lives with me on weekends when I'm in Switzerland. I often go to my Lama's Buddhist centre in France.
I enjoy playing guitar but I'm not very good at it, I play flute much better. I like to paint and draw. It's a good way to express myself. And I take time every day to practice Buddhist meditation to improve myself in being compassionate and caring, with the aim to help every being.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet new people. I think that a lot of couchsurfers have many qualities and we often share the same look on life and the same wish that, on this planet there will be so much love one day, that the desire of money and power will disappear. Almost every couchsurfer I learned to know helped me to have more faith in mankind. What is important in life is trying every day to be a better person than the day before.
I don't have a lot of money so Couchsurfing is a cheaper way to travel.
At home, I like very much when I have the opportunity to know better the couchsurfers if they stay more than 1 night. So don't hesitate to ask to stay a few days.
