About Me

I'm currently studying architecture and interior design. At the moment I'm doing an exchange semester at UQAM in Montréal and it's wonderful !
What I like about architecture is that beauty is everywhere you lay your eyes on. I am always curious to discover old and new forms of buildings, and I think I will never get tired of that. I basically love to observe the world, notice the changes between cities, landscapes, countries, continents.
It's my first time on the american part of the world, and I am lucky enough to get one month of traveling by myself on january 2017. I plan on using mostly the train, to watch the amazing scenery pass by !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's been a while since my friends tell me about the amazing people they met through Couchsurfing, and I think it's time to see it for myself ! I would love to make my trips more meaningful by getting to know locals and sharing bits of life with them.
Sadly I never hosted because of the size of my appartment in Paris. Once I get a place with a separated room, I will love to !

Music, Movies, and Books

Old school rock'n'roll, Psychedelic, a lot from the 60's and 70's, and some of today's electronic music (Thylacine, Acid Arab, Jacques, Superpoze...), and I also love traditional and classical music.
The book I often carry with me is Boris Vian's L'écume des jours, because it makes me travel to an entirely new world every time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last August I got the chance to see whales and belugas from the shoreline of St Lawrence river in the north of Québec. In October almost at the same place, I saw hundreds of wild snow gooses flying over my head...
Seeing those animals in their natural habitat was stunning and humbling.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to cook something veggie or vegan, or french, for you !
