About Me

Frenchie passionnated about traveling and discovering cultures. I am very open-minded and love discussing about everything, sharing ideas and learn about culture differences. This is why I love meeting people from different background and habits so we can debate on a range of subjects with our different perspective.
I graduated from a Bachelor in Business Administration that made me travel a lot, learn more languages and gave opportunities in practicing marketig on the travel industry. I aim to mix my passion and professionnal life.
I like laughing, have fun at the beach exploring marine creatures in the ocean (as long as I feel safe aha). I am not a sportive person but I love activities such as water sports that make me move, strengthen my muscles and keep my body entertained while having leisure and fun!
I also practice and love listen to music. I know how to play piano and accordeon even though I don't have much oportunities to practice anymore through my travels. I feel like music is life, it make you feel alive and brings so much fun anywhere you go!
I come from France, lived a few months in Germany, Vietnam, Taiwan, Saint-Martin (French West Indies) and a year in Australia. I also have traveled in Poland, Italy, UK, Andorra, Thailand, Shanghai, Dubai, Saint-Barthelemy and Anguilla. Now I am about to travel to French Polynesia (Tahiti), Auckland, Hawaii and Los Angeles.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to couchsurf because I am often travelling alone and I know I don't enjoy it very well just because I am a people person... I am not lonely at all and there a lot of things that I restrict myself to because I feel boring alone. I remember that day I was having a dring on a rooftop at Dubai Marina. The view was perfect, the atmosphere was so fun except that I had nobody to talk make it amazing time! I want to meet people, share our experiences, local life, local food, share how to cook local food, do activities together... in one word: SOCIALIZING! I have so much to share about my travels in Asia, Caribbean, Asutralia, a lot of stories to tell! I would love people to tll me their story as well! I am very enthousiastic in meeting new international friends and invite them to my home one day as well!

Interests

My interests are a lot about travelling and experiencing. For me, travelling is experiencing life. I feel like life is not restricted to what you live, see and hear within your usual environment. Their are a lot more to expore that you don't have within your environment. People, wildlife, flora, nature, meterials, climate, etc. A lot of suffs that completely change local way of life. Life is a different concept whereever you go. I am interested in discovering those concepts. This is why I am interested in adventuring, exploring, meeting, traveling, sharing.

Music, Movies, and Books

Yiruma - "River flows in yours" that I have been practicing so much on the piano
Despacito, Sorry I know you probably have heard it way too much but I love latino music and have a lot of memories on this popular one aha
Basically, I love Latinos, Raggeaton, Socca and Dancehall musics, one of my favorite is "I love my life" that I have heard so much in Saint-Martin
The 80's and the film "Star 80" - I love my parents generation musics, the kinds that lasts for generations!
I don't watch too much films but mainly series such as Criminal Minds, One Tree Hill, Gossip Girl, 90210 Beverly Hills, Un, Dos, Tres, Grey's Anatomy. Yeah, I know that sounds so girlish but this was a way too learn and improve my english in junior and high school (except Un, Dos, Tres).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

An Extraordinary adventures that I lived was my experience in Vietnam because this was the first time I was traveling out of Europe. A very far asian culture that I didn't expect that litterally far! When I arrived, I was so desoriented, feeling alone and I wanted to come back home! I could imagine staying 6 months in that crazy environment. But I wanted to adapt, I wanted to discover a new place. I started to meet people, locals and international people. Discussing with them, I started to understand another way to see life and think about life. I started to understand that we don't see things the same way because we just don't have the same culture. I discovered a non-stress way of living that brought me so much peace in heart as I never experienced before. I never imagine living this way, thiking this way but it works well! I understood the environement make you live some way and you ust adapt and from that moment I new I was made to travel and experience such feelings and emotions!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love teach few travel tips especially in Vietnam and South East Asia. I have a lot to teach on Australia a well. I want to teach my language.
I want to learn from Latin America, I want to learn more languages, especially spannish! I want to learn about Maori culture in French Polynesia and New Zealand. I want to keep learning how to play piano! I'd love to be taught dancing!
I want to share French culture starting with food and cooking!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I want to share Crêpes, Raclette, Tartiflette and Bœuf Bourguignon! I definitely want to share meal time. The best time to discuss all together and share ours dishes.
