CURRENT MISSION

Since I am moving to Australia for some time in October 2015, I would like to discover as much as I can. :) I am travelling with my boyfriend Thomas, who is originally from France, Guadeloupe. We lived in England and then Spain, so now we are heading to Australia and will hopefully stay for about a year there travelling around and also working.

ABOUT ME

http://notrussianenough.blogspot.com.au/?m=1

I am open and I think easy to get on with; positive as I am always trying to find a bright side/ learning opportunity in every situation. Laughter, listening to acoustic guitar and sharing stories make me happy :)

PHILOSOPHY

The hardest work is working to improve oneself, but is also most satisfactory

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have stayed with really nice hosts when travelling and also met new friends for life via CS. I would also like to host when I have my next flat.

I have also used CS groups to meet people, and it was always a pleasant experience!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only surfing, but would like to host as soon as I am done with this years travels.

Interests

languages, cultural exchange, life music, salsa.

this year I have gotten into mountain hiking and started playing ukulele. I am hoping to pick up acoustic guitar next year

I am just interested in talking and sharing with people as this is how I learn about myself

My favourite film is 'The eternal sunshine of the spotless mind'. Some others are Amelie, the beautiful mind, Burned by the sun.....

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling on the motorbike across Spain, Portugal, France and Switzerland with my boyfriend (I wasnt driving hehhee).

One of my recent meaningful experiences was El Camino de Santiago in Galicia. The nature, people and walking inspired me. I did 111 km in 2014 and another 100 km in 2015. I did it as part of travelling through Spain, and my next plan is to walk from France, maybe in 2017..
