I'm a student in political science in Lausanne, which I really like. I'm a friendly person but don't mind spending some time alone.
I really like my lessons but decided to take a break before continuing my studies. To make the most of it I'm leaving my friends and family behind for a few months in South America hoping to meet great people and get a glimpse of how it's living over there !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Some friends told me about Couchsurfing and I thought it was a great way of travelling and meeting people so got inscribed on it as soon as possible.

Interests

I really enjoy my lessons of history, sociology and learning about political institutions and international relations. I like reading more about it and getting to understand a bit better whats happening around.
I looove spending time with my friends, sometimes just fooling around and others visiting towns, going for walks in mountains and forests or having fun in parties with good music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My travels in Morocco and South Asia !!
And also some lessons I took a long time ago to learn how to take good pictures and developing them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I took some spanish lessons to get some bases but I'm still far from being able to have fluent conversation. Someday I would also like to learn some Moroccan (Darija). Otherwise I speak fluently french and english and a little german.

I'd like to learn more spanish and also about living in South America and I'd definatly be happy to share about life in Switzerland (the chocolate, the cheese as well as the politics or languages) !

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live quite far from Lausanne so it's not very practical with the trains, buses and stuff but I'd be happy showing Lausanne around !

Cambodia, England, France, Laos, Morocco
