Half French, half Iranian, I grew up in Paris. I moved to London when I was 18 to study Bioengineering at Imperial College. I lived for a year in San Francisco and worked for a start up in DNA sequencing. I then spent 6 months in India, doing a yoga teacher training and exploring Auroville.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
When I was in Pondicherry (India), I found myself in a terrible guesthouse with mean hosts and called for help on CS. A few hours later, a guy with big fizzy hair and a colorful tee-shirt picks me up on his little mopet and off we go to a blue house near the beach, where I stayed with 5 other people for a week. They showed me around, took me to different places. We danced, we went swimming. They were lovely, and they really turned my stay from uncomfortable to extremely fun !
