I am currently on a working holiday visa in New-Zealand until the end of March and I am looking forward to discover more amazing places after the end of this adventure ! I am 24 and I have been travelling since I'm a child. It has taught me much and I hope to keep travelling as much as I can !
I am a very positive person, I like to meet people and share stories, ideas, meals... I am always curious and try to be more open-minded every day. I love being outdoors, hiking, climbing... I really want to discover as much as I can of this incredible planet we live on.
I have been studying German and Politics, and then children's literature ; in Nantes, France, and Düsseldorf, Germany. When I am not travelling or studying, I work as a camp counsellor in France, or I train new camp counsellors. I am especially interested in the role of environment, intercultural and gender equality in education. If I ever end up doing the same job for the rest of my life, I want to keep working with kids, in education and/or languages. Education if for me one of the most important things for human beings !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people and share ideas ; to discover other ways of living I wouldn't get to know otherwise ; to step out of the touristic places and paths.

Interests

I love to speak and learn other languages, travelling, meeting people from different countries...
I want to learn more about what is around me and self-sufficiency, more respectful ways of living.
I also like to play and listen to music, I read a lot and like watching movies, board games, and a lot more !
