About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to cultivate relaxed alertness

ABOUT ME

Alternating work/study obsession with serene debauchery! But overall CURIOUS.
I was very shy when I was a little girl, and hated parties. Then I discovered how great it is to meet new people and that even sharing a single moment of joy with someone you'll probably never meet again is something always worth it. Now I'm much more easygoing and love to party!
But I'm also very relaxed, in the sense that I love doing relaxing activities like reading and watching movies.
I love drawing. I'm studying and trying to become an animator.

PHILOSOPHY

Happiness is about being balanced, and balance is a continuous effort and challenge. That's what's exciting about it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm really thrilled with the CS project. I think it's one of the little steps to do to make the world a warmer place. I'm currently living with my parents so I cannot host for now, but I'd be glad to offer some coffee!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Every time it's been quite a surprise! There's no better way to know a place than to share a little bit of life with people who live there!
