Heeey !!
I am Pauline, I would like to become an adventurer after my studies. This is my main goal. Many people think I am crazy, that I will never make a living. But I don't care, I just want to make my dreams come true, and to travel around the world, by sharing my experiences and meeting new people.

Heeey !!
Je suis Pauline, je voudrais devenir aventurière après mes études. C'est le premier objectif de ma vie. Beaucoup de gens pensent que je suis folle, que je ne gagnerai jamais ma vie. Mais je m'en moque, je veux juste réaliser mes rêves et voyager à travers le monde en partageant mes expériences et en faisant de belles rencontres.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing for several reasons.
First, each country, each city, has a specific culture. And you can't visit a country or a city without dicovering the culture. If you don't know the country's culture you've visited, it is as if you've never been there. And the best way to discover city's culture is to meet its inhabitants. Couchsurfing is, in my opignion, one of the best way to meet local people.
Then, I think meating new people, talking about everything and nothing, listening music together, etc... is so far so better than being in the best hotel of the town, alone, watching TV to kill time (to kill time which is very precious by the way).
And finally, because traveling is essential !! In my opignion, discovering the world is as important as eating. Everybody should travel easily, without spending too much money. You can notice Couchsurfing is cheaper than all of the hotels.

Je suis sur Couchsurfing pour plusieurs raisons.
D'abord, chaque pays, chaque ville a une culture bien spécifique. Et on ne peut pas visiter un pays ou une ville sans découvrir sa culture. Si tu ne connais pas la culture d'un pays que tu as visité, c'est comme si tu n'y étais jamais allé(e). Et la meilleure façon de découvrir la culture d'une ville, c'est de rencontrer ses habitants. Selon moi, Couchsurfing, est un des meilleurs moyens de rencontrer les locaux.
Ensuite, je pense que rencontrer de nouvelles personnes, parler de tout et de rien, écouter de la musique ensemble, etc... est (de loin) bien mieux qu'être dans le meilleur hôtel de la région, seul(e), a regarder la télé pour tuer le temps (tuer le temps qui est précieux d'ailleurs).
Enfin, parce que voyager est essentiel !! Selon moi, découvrir le monde est aussi important que manger. Tout le monde devrait voyager facilement, sans dépenser trop d'argent. Tu auras remarqué que Couchsurfing est moins chère que n'importe quel hôtel.

Interests

I love sport, especially ski.
Nature is my passion, it's the only place where breathing is not difficult...
I love listening to music, it makes me feel happier.
Eventually, I like traveling, discovering new natural places. I would like to travel all around the world when I am older.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've climbed the Mont Joly so as to watch the sun set from there. I had my skis on my shoulder and I was walking in the snow with my ski-boots to reach the summit. Thanks to the chairlift we (my sister, two friends and I) reached the altitude 2 353m. The Mont Joly is 2 525m high. After hours on foot over difficult mountainous terrain, we were at the summit, without food and drinks. We were thirsty. I tried to melt some snow with my body heat. It was a failure. It did not matter. The sky was so beautiful that the thirst was forgotten. It was pink, mountains were pink, with a little bit of orange. The colours were amazing especially on the Mont Blanc which was in front of us. The we went back home by ski, during the night. It was A-MA-ZING.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Je suis montée en haut du mont Joly pour voir le coucher de soleil depuis là haut. J'avais mes skis sur mon épaule, et je marchais dans la neige avec mes chaussures de skis pour atteindre le sommet. Grâce au télésiège, nous (ma sœur, deux amis, et moi) étions arrivés à l'altitude 2 353m. Le Mont Joly a une altitude de 2 525m. Après beaucoup de temps à marcher sue le terrain montagneux, nous étions au sommet, sans nourriture, et sans eau. Nous avions soif. J'ai essayé de faire fondre de la neige avec ma chaleur corporelle. Ce fut un échec. Mais ce n'était pas grave. Le ciel était si beau que la soif fut oubliée. Il état rose, les montagnes étaient roses, avec un peu de orange. Les couleurs était incroyables, plus particulièrement sur le Mont Blanc, qui était en face de nous. Ensuite nous sommes rentrés à la maison en ski, pendant la nuit. C'était GE-NI-AL

Teach, Learn, Share

If you are not fluent in French I can teach you some words. I can also show you some card games such as "La Marmotte". We can also share our recipes. I know easy recipe to do a bread or crêpes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can propose to my guests to enjoy life and have fun. Because in my opinion enjoying life is VERY important. There is a quote that I like by Mel Brooks which is : "Look, I really don’t want to wax philosophic, but I will say that if you’re alive, you’ve got to flap your arms and legs, you’ve got to jump around a lot, you’ve got to make a lot of noise because life is the very opposite of death.”
