About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Se connaître et trouver l'équilibre profond ;) être stable dans soi pour s'ouvrir sur l'en dehors en quelque sorte.

ABOUT ME

I am a talkative (too much sometimes), openminded person, independent but not lonely.
I like meeting new people (maybe you who are reading my profile) and making new experiences, I don't expect much about life, I only try to live it as best as I can!
CS is today a way to proove that generosity and hospitality still exist in 'this modern world'.
And I do believe in destiny meetings, you will meet someone for an hour, a day, months or sometimes lifetime, but it will always bring you what it is, sharing, experiences, joy, openminded and laugh !
Let's meet :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only had one experience as traveler and one as hosting, which were both pretty interesting.

I hope and know my next ones would also be great, and anyway, it's always rich to meet people, anywhere, anytime, any context.

I do like to travel and going from a friend home to another one, when I do not know anyone in a place, I think CS is a way to find a nice place to stay in return to give to your host some services like cooking, helping for house things... and little gifts, I like more "barter" exchange than money one, it brings more humanity and better relationship between each other.

Interests

cinema (mostly unknown movies, but sometimes, a bluckbuster is what you need),
art and architecture (of course, but too much and you get overdosed),
music (any kind, I can not really make a day whithout), nature (I'm a peaceful and happy girl ;) ),
sport is the life at least, one of my basic need. and what best that cooking after a nice run !

And what will be the world without beer, red wine and dark chocolate? (not mine)

Music, Movies, and Books

tarantino, almodovar, ciné d'arts et d'essais, les films un petit plus complexe que les blockbusters, les films qui font rélféchir, débattre.
La musique, ouverture totale, sauf sorties françaises de bien mauvaise qualité (pas de nomination bien sûr),
les livres, ce que l'on me propose, je m'y accroche ou je passe... En ce moment je suis surtout sur des livres spirituels, sur la méditation, prendre le temps de faire les choses et de penser.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Je pense aujourd'hui, que mon aventure de 10 jours à cheval au Pérou, perdue avec mes 4 amis dans les montagnes entre 3000 et 5000 m d'altitude, a été l'expérience la plus forte mentalement et physiquement de ma vie. ce qui m'a incité à méditer profondément sur la vie, sur moi et mes besoins, et l'atteinte de mes propres limites.

Teach, Learn, Share

J'ouvre grands mes yeux et mes oreilles.
Quant à ma part, je peux donner des petits cours de dessins, de cuisine, parlons français et espagnol au bon coeur.
