About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I really feel like discovering the world in a sincere way, meeting inhabitants, living with them for a few days.

ABOUT ME

Hi ! I am a French student who really enjoys travelling and meeting people. I would like to discover what life looks like out of France and live for a few days as if I was part of the country visited. Of course I would be delighted to teach you everything you want to know about France. I am also very excited to share your everyday life. It doesn't disturb me to speak an other language, on the contrary I really want to improve my vocabulary ^^
Here is information you can find useful about me : I like children, pets (especially cats), I don't have any food allergy. I am a Christian, open to dialogue between cultures and religions.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to keep being surprised by the world like a child.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For the moment, I do not have enough room to greet someone. I hope to do so as soon as my income enables me to rent a larger flat. Nevertheless, I would like to make the most of my youth by travelling around the world to marvel, appreciate cultural differences and better understand the world's stakes.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Without knowing, I have been practicing couchsurfing for years ! I was hosted for a month by an American family. I have also invited French friends (for example from Lille and Nice) to discover my region. My latest guest was a Japanese student from my university.

Interests

The one thing you must know about me is that I am very sporty ! I like biking, rollerblading, swimming, skiing and above all running ! I belong to an association promoting Europe because I believe in the people's union beyond their differences.
I can play the piano.
I often talk about politics, this is what my studies consist in, after all ^^

Music, Movies, and Books

I like pop/ rock music, for example the group Texas. On the contrary metal does not appeal to me but I am open to any musical discovery.
I don't have much time to read novels but there is one I really appreciated : the Kite Runner (the action is set in Afghanistan). I am also crazy about the manga Fullmetal Alchemist (Hagane no Renkinjutsushi)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As I was studying in London, I :
1 - Talked to the Queen
2 - Ran in the Olympic stadium in front of 40,000 people to represent my uni

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach French, I would like to improve or discover other languages. I can teach the bases of piano, why wouldn't I learn the guitar ? I would like to learn how to surf. I am also useless at using the computer ^^ I can teach you how to swim without tiring too much.
