Personal Description

I'm not complicated and never looking for something complicated ! I feel open-minded and really ready to discover new people, culture, food so the world !...
I think I can adapt myself to lots of things.
I 'm trying to live close to nature and help it as I can.
I can be talkative sometimes but most of the time I'm kind of quiet... :)

How I Participate in CS

I surfed couches a lot when I traveled around Ireland for 4 months, it is the best way to really know a country !
I hosted only few people when I lived in Tours unfortunately...

CouchSurfing Experience

Feb 2010: I've discovered this site not a long time ago and I went to a meeting in Orleans ! There the people were really open minded and interesting !
April 2010: It was nice to be hosted in West-South Cork but more experiences to come !
Still more experiences all around Ireland ! Always really nice !
June 2011 : Hosting is very different but also great :)

Interests

Interested in many things !... Especially discovering beautiful landscapes just walking somewhere by chance and then dreaming :)
I also love cooking, taking pictures, acting again the capitalist world !
Hitching and metting nice people when you have no idea it'll happen are great things as well ! :)

Philosophy

Take it easy.
Take what nature gives us and give it back the same way....
Peace and love !

Music, Movies, Books

French music like Les Ogres de Barback, reggae like Groundation, trip-hop like Morcheeba, rock like Red Hot, electro like High Tone...
It depends on my mood but lots of movies and books !

Types of People I enjoy

I'd like to like every kind of people but when they're not open it is hard.

Teach, Learn, Share

I prefer learning/listening than teaching/speaking but i can even so share some travels, cooking, languages !...

One Amazing Thing I've Seen or Done

I've seen the most Southernly point (Mizen Head) and Northernly point (Malin Head) of Ireland ! :D

August 2010, I traveled in 2cv with my friend and we drove 6000 km from The Loire Valley to Gibraltar sleeping in the car, washing in wild river ! (best part in the Pyrenees !)

Opinion on the CouchSurfing.org Project

-I'll tell something when i'll know more !
-Now I know some more and I think it's a great invention, or if not an invention, something developped very well...
-I'm waiting to host some people !
-Hosting is great as well :)

Locations Traveled

LIVED: France, Ireland (Republic of), Spain
WANTS TO GO: Chile, Peru


What do these numbers mean?

This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.

In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.

When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you.

Thanks to Elise and her friend I have passed a great time in their lovely apartment and the green surrounding. Even if it was exam time, they made me discover the nightlife of Tours, its cooking specialities and many colloquial words :) Thank you so much. You are so delightful persons with a good mood. I hope we'll meet soon, either in Tour or Bretagne or why not Germany?

Staying at Elise's place was my first CS experience and I had a perfect time there! I adored her very very cosy flat and she and her boyfriend are great hosts, too: They picked us up at the railway station, cooked a delicious pizza for us and took lots of time to show us around. Besides, I learned Mozart had dreadlocks and how to paint a sitting cow :) Hope to see you in Rennes one day!

Elise is one of the sweetest girls we've ever met, it's a shame she had so much to do when she stayed with us because we definitely would have loved to spend more time with her,she is of course always welcome to come back and we recommend her to anyone as a great and fun couch surfer !

Elise was a pleasant person to have around the house. For a minute, I was alarmed to see her standing behind me crying, and holding a sharp knife. But then when I saw that she was cutting an onion, it made perfect sense. The onion was making her cry.
It was nice to get to know this genuine adventurer.

I enjoyed a lot traveling with Elise and her sister in Dublin and was happy to welcome her later for a few days in my flat back home. She is an amazing girl and a very interesting person to meet! I wish you good luck for your next trips and I'm looking forward meeting you once again!

having the opportunity to host elise was a great experience. as a guest she is very easy going & relaxed & as a result a joy to host. it was great to be able to introduce her to my creative Dublin friends for an intimate candlelit screening of the 'life of brian', where elise really helped out alot with things. i then hosted her rucsac for a week before also meeting her lovely sister for a pizza + cheap birthday cake feast. thank you elise & clair for everything & for making the journey to visit.
