About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Create my company, enjoy my friends, learn meditation, do a lot of sports!

ABOUT ME

I'm a "yes" girl. Always up for a good trip. Love travelling (did a World tour in 2009-2010).
Now I just finished my studies and I'm starting a company creation with a friend, this is a crazy new adventure indeed!

PHILOSOPHY

I love the life I have, wouldn't trade it, I like to see it as unlimited opportunities! But unless you share it with people, it's worth nothing. And couchsurfing is good for sharing experiences!
I think you have to provoke happiness and luck for them to happen, and that's what I do all the time :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I traveled the World, I couchsurfed quite a lot, now I can finally host, having my own apartment (with a roommate)!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Was welcomed by so many people last year, who made us enjoy so much more our World tour with François, since we were able to see the places from the eyes of people who lived there!

Interests

My first passion is the sea : diving, snorkeling, wake-boarding, sailing...
And rivers also : canyoning, rafting...
I love music. I have played piano and saxophon, but now I'm only listening. It's better for everyone else's ears... Except I can't help singing all the time :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a fan of adventures novels, like Jules Verne's, Stevenson's. Also fan of Eric Emmanuel Schmitt, Paul Loup Sulitzer's novels...
In terms of music, I like pop rock, may it be old or new (the Clash is one of my favorite, Amy MacDonald, Vampire Weekend, the Police, Jean-Jacques Goldman... Classic ones).
My favorite movies are humoristic, adventures, and romantic ones. I don't like to be scared in front of my TV, or not to be entertained (like with those movies that show us "real life", as boring as it can sometimes be). I like to laugh, or cry, or learn (movies that make you think).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A 14m jump into the water (twice ;))
Crossing a nepalese strike (due to attacks and deaths in the government) on the back of a moto whose driver I didn't know, through paddy fields to reach Kathmandu
10 months with a friend around the World.
Getting tracked by a turtle, diving with a lot of sharks, lemon ones 50 cm from my face...
Not looking for a job but for ways to create one, or a few ones :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't know what I could teach. I mean teaching how to make a business plan wouldn't be that funny (though it could...). French? Tennis? Laughing?

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Brazil, Chile, French Polynesia, Indonesia, Kenya, Laos, Madagascar, New Caledonia, Réunion, Thailand, Turkey, United States, Vanuatu

Countries I’ve Lived In

France, Nepal, New Caledonia
