Hey ! :)

My name is Clémence and I'm a French student, I study Latin America (history, political sciences, anthropology, sociology...) in Paris. I'm 24, I'm fond of dance, especially ballet ( I practice ballet for 17 years) and salsa.

I'm calm, and patient. I love going out at night to have a beer, meeting new people, talking and discovering eatch other.

I've always travelled with my parents or friends, but now I want to make my own experience alone.
From March to June 2017, I've been to South America for my studies. I've lived in Paraguay for 2 months and I backpacked in North Argentina, Buenos Aires, and Chile (Santiago & Valparaiso).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In my opinion, CS is one of the best way to meet new people. It allows me to discover people's way of life, but also learn about different cultures and languages :)

i think people can bring me something and contribute to open my mind as I can bring them something !

Interests

Reading : a lot, especially books of History (Middle Ages, History of Latin America, Cold War...), but also novels (Mario Vargas Llosa is my favourite author)

Music: every kind of music, I'm curious ! But I have a preference for reggae and trance !

Walking: I love walking, I spend my free time to walk in the streets of Paris, or in the countryside when I come back to my parent's house

Cinema: LOVE IT ! Going like 3-4 times/week !

Photography: it's one of my passion. I'm an amateur but I'm doing my best and my father gives me some advices. Paris is a perfect place to take pictures.
