About Me

Always a pleasure to meet travelers !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea of sharing : a moment, a drink, an appartment... So I like the idea behind couchsurfing : to host people from all over the world and to be part of a few moments in their journey !

Interests

I am very much interested in alternatives to the actual system such as the sharing economy, fairtrade, alternative pedagogies... So I like to discuss about all this. A few years ago, I also got interested in environmental protection and sustainability.
I like meeting new people and get to know their trajectory through life !

Music, Movies, and Books

At the moment, I listen to a lot of swing jazz music because I pratice Lindy Hop and Charleston ( swing dances from the 30's).
But I also like latin music like cumbia ; and balkan music (brass bands...).
Favorite books and movies are difficult to choose... I would say I'm pretty much opened to any style even though I'm not a big fan of Sci-Fi.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For my thesis of master, I conducted a research in Mexico. So I lived during 5 months in a community of native Mexicans : that was one of the best experience I've done in my life so far. I learned so much in five months about myself, about humanity, about interculturality, about sharing, giving and receiving ! Amazing experience !

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some very cool swing dance moves !
I can also teach a bit of languages I speak !
