About Me

Hi, my name is Manon. I'm not great at describing myself, but I like to think I'm sweet, optimistic and motivated. I love travelling, visiting new places, and sharing a little bit of my adventures with new people :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea of Couchsurfing all together! It's a fun way to travel, and allows us to meet wonderful people we would not have met otherwise.

Interests

I really enjoy doing sports. I'm usually up for trying any sports, I just love exercising. My three favorites though are climbing - which I have been doing for a while now and I really enjoy it, swimming and mountain hiking (especially when it's a whole trip of a few days).
I am also a big fan of theatre. I like watching plays, but I also really enjoy being on stage (as an amateur, but still).
Finally, I am fascinated by culture differences. I like to discover other ways of living, and experience new things around the globe.

Music, Movies, and Books

Ah my favorites movies (no specific order) are The broken circle breakdown, La La Land, Boyhood, Into the wild, Moonlight kingdom and Captain Fantastic ! I've seen all of these movies more than once :)
But I am truly not difficult when it comes to watching something, I'm usually up for anything.

As for books, have a small preference for thrillers, because I get caught up by the suspense. I also enjoy fantastique books from time to time. But I unfortunately don't take much time to read lately. Although I should because I really like it!

The genre of music I listen the most to is indie-folk, but I can listen any sort of music, depending on the context :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have tried ice climbing, and it was amazing! Much harder than I thought it would be, but a lot of fun :)
I also had an amazing time hiking in Corsica with a few friends, the whole trip was perfect.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Simply a little bit about me, my time, and if someone is interested, some of my stories.
