Hi my name is Athénais, I'll move to Brighton in september to study set design. I'm big travel lover, I took a gap year and went to Berlin last year, I met there beautiful people and live a wonderful experience, what made me grow a lot.

Besides that, I'm always respectful and tidy when I stay at someone's place, I respect his privacy and space. To conclude, I think to be open-minded, easy going and friendly. I love to meet new people from different countries and share our experiences together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I think it's a nice concept, it's a real human experience, you discover the city with locals, you get to know each other and share good times, that's what I want !

Furthermore, I've got a lot of friends in Berlin who did this when they arrived and they were really happy about it.
