About Me

ABOUT ME

I am french, living for 4 years in Canada , I work in communication, do a lot of graphic design, I dance and do a lot of yoga during my time off. I love watching hockey games with my roomates...What else? O yeah, I love traveling especially alone, to me it's the best way to interact with new people, new cultures! that is why I love the CS community! I always had great experiences with CS, and hope to have a lot more! :)

PHILOSOPHY

I want to have no regrets...I'm working hard to get what I want (jobs, travels...), I want to experience the world, meet people I would never had the chance to meet if I stayed at home...To me a travel is as much the people you meet than the place you visit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been absent from the CS communituy for many years...I've been focusing on school, and job a LOT...Now I have more time, and I am realising that really miss the experiences I lived with the CS community, So I am back! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I discovered CS in 2008, when I first arrived in Canada. Me and my roomates hosted a lot a european and south american couchsurfers. I felt in love with the concept right away. So many great people ended up on our coach. I felt like I was travelling without living my appartement...in 2009, I spend 6 months in Melbourne, Australia as an au pair girl , met all my friends through the CS community, went couchsurfing in Sydney, had an incredible journey!!
