( OBS: not accepting guests for the time being as I'm travelling)

Hi There!

Name's Awa, Abidjan born, Copenhagen raised and currently London residing.
SOAS graduate and struggling art writer who's gone corporate because bills have to be payed.

Perhaps a slight daydreamer but definitely a realist preferring company which involves engaging reflections/conversations about art, cinema, music, politics and anything else of commonality.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

To meet locals where I intend to go to.
Get to know the country, culture and most importantly to connect and explore the variety of local joys your city offers.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Pretty much open to all kinds of music but Disco/Boogie, House and notably Jazz I have a soft spot for. So if you're fellow lover we'll definitely connect on that.

Literature wise not particularly picky but do love critical theory and post colonial litterature.

Movies= Anything Comedy, New Wave and on the topic of existentialism.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Undoubtely traveling!

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I look to cook, so will happily share recipes with you while hopefully learning something about your local culture. I always curate new playlists for each place I go depending on spirit, duration and my own expectations, so you're guaranteed good music in my company.

Oh! Aaaand I bring, my weird yet funny humor and talkativeness to keep you company, that must be something, right!?
