About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Still searching...

ABOUT ME

Well, in a nutshell: I'm half-English, half-French (which half, you're wondering...?) and I've lived in both France and England for about an equal amount of time. I'm not sure why I started with that, but I guess it describes me in some way... I'm now living in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, who knows where I'll end up next. One day, I'll find myself a "home", but for now, I'll just see how things go. I'm quite a social person but do have my quiet moments. When I'm not quiet, though, I love to laugh!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, I'm a beginner, so joining is my first contribution...

Interests

I love meeting new people and travelling, especially if I can travel to a place where I know (or can get to know) someone.
I love to be happy, dance (especially salsa, merengue and bachata... and my new passion: forró!), walk, go camping, eat (I love trying food from all over the world)... but it's always better when I can share all this with other people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love going to the cinema... and I can rarely resist the offer to watch a DVD in the comfort of one's couch. Favourite film? Requiem for a Dream (really hard to watch, especially towards the end, and rather depressing but... what a fantastic film!). I love to read too - novels, but also bandes dessinées (comic strips). I listen to a variety of music - Sia, Garmana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lou Reed, Manu Dibango, Tinariwen... (but I'm generally rubbish at knowing who composed/sings what).

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always willing to share my knowledge of French and English... I'm a native speaker of both and I love languages in general!
I always appreciate learning languages, and right now... I could do with improving my German! Hum, or my Dutch, actually.
Mmh, and I've been wanting to learn guitar for ages (but don't seem to be so talented) - so if you can teach me something in that domain... that would be fantastic!
And I have a nice reflex camera that I should really learn how to use!!
I discovered that I love dancing a few years ago - so I can teach a few steps, and I'm always keen on learning new moves (as long as it's fun and we're not training for a competition, haha).
