About Me

I'm an outgoing, adventurous and curious person who loves to experience and learn new things! I was born in France but lived 15 years in England before moving to Barcelona to start a Masters in sustainable urban mobility transitions in 2020 and I'm now working for a European Institute to make sustainable mobility a reality!

During my adult life I've also lived some time in Lyon, Montreal and Stockholm which were all unique experiences and I've had the opportunity to make friends with people from all over the world!

I'm a DJ so when I'm not working on my day job I'm preparing sets, I'm a big fan of music and I always love finding new music and sharing music with others. I also like learning and practising languages, I am fluent in English and French and my Spanish is almost fluent, now I am learning mostly Italian and Catalan but I also want to learn Portuguese (Sou 1/4 português!) and one day Greek.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After many years of travelling mostly staying in hostels, I want to make the most of the generous couchsurfing community, meeting local and open minded people who also have a passion for travelling/backpacking and sharing their experiences with me (and maybe have some good tips for good places to visit)!

I have so many interests and I love having many conversations and learning about alot of different topics such as culture, language, geography, politics, transport, psychology, health, sport, films and anything else that you are passionate about. I also love food (cooking and especially eating), trying different foods is always a great experience.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In summer 2022 I did volunteering through WorldPackers on a farm/vineyard in Sicily and it was really a new experience, being far from from the urban world, living life at a slow pace, sleeping in a hamac (or tent depending on the weather) and learning new things from the others on the farm.

Then after my volunteering I did two months of interrailing in South Eastern Europe and visited 12 countries that I hadn't been to before. It was intense but met so many people, saw many cool things and have some great memories that I will always keep. My love for travelling will never die!
