Hey hey! My name is Yael from France but I lived in norway for 5 years. I worked as a 3D modelling teacher, but I also taught structural analysis, manufacturing technologies and some other subjects. My contract was finished in July, and combined with bad time in my life, I decided to change my mind by making a last world trip before my 30 years :) I just have finished to visit all the countries of europe (45 countries!) and ready to explore the rest of the world !

CURRENT MISSION

travel around the world and enjoy life

ABOUT ME

I practise basket-ball and gymnastic in club and many sports just for fun (wakeboard,snowboard,kitesurf,beach volley,squash,running etc).
I'm really dynamic (maybe too much :) ), sociable and too much talkative!

PHILOSOPHY

The best way to predict the future is to invent it.(Alan Kay )
I have not failed. I've just found 10000 ways that won't work.(Thomas Edison)
I'm always ready to learn, although I don't always like being taught.(Winston Churchill)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A wonderful norwegian hosted me some years ago, it was a real positive experience and after that, i wanted to make the same! Otherwise When I was in Svalbard (close to the north pole), a couple hosted me, and now... I'm the godfather of their son! just incredible... anyway, i had other experiences on CS but i didn't mention it

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to learn norwegian!I take norwegian courses but it's hard ... Otherwise I'm willing to learn from other cultures!

What I Can Share with Hosts

The best: a place where to sleep, but my flat is really small, so it's hard to host more than 2 people...

The average: something to eat or drink, meet people in the city, give them advices about what to visit and come with them

Ther worst: Give advices and let them go by themselves
