Hiya! I'm a broke teen who travels a lot. I live with my gran in Paris studying illustration Among Other Things and writing in my spare time Among Other Things. Apart from art and writing I'm into urban ecology, music, rap, films, etc. I'm a social bean and I think we can all share and exchange cross the globe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why book hotels with no personalities when we can all exchange among interesting humans?

Teach, Learn, Share

I WANT TO FEED YOU (I cook) (see next question)

If you do music, I like singing and I play a wee bit, let's jam, why not?

If you have a book that needs binding, an album that needs a cover illustration, or you want tattoo ideas? Great, I'm in art school :P

If you wanna discuss travel, zero-waste lifestyle, or languages? Yiss.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I cook a LOT. I love cooking. I also love storytelling, be they travel stories (and there are plenty of those) or folktales or bad french jokes. Honestly, I just love meeting people and getting to know them. Tell me your life story!

I give cooking classes and I love making meals when I stay over at friends' house. I cook a lot of East/South/Central asian food (coz I'm ""ethnic""), also Mexican, vegan food and vegetarian junk food. I will cook for you because food is the #1 reason to travel and meet people.

Dish ideas: sticky rice dumplings, Tex-Mex stuffed sweet potatoes, chilli-carrot cake, cardamom-jasmi e baked fish, curries, beans, springrolls, a sandwich.

Totally cool to do the washing up, walk the dog, sew your trousers etc.
