About Me

I’m a little French redhead, curious about life, of the world ... I love people, sharing, discovering new cultures and see beautiful landscapes.

I'm a recently graduated pharmacy Doctor. I'm really passionate about essential oils and wrote my pharmacy thesis on this fascinating subject at the end of my student exchange in Quebec.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think Couchsurfing is an amazing opportunity to meet people, without the barrier of money. Just sharing & enjoy the present moment.
Some of my friends have already tried it, I got good feedback, so now, my turn to experience, :) .

Music, Movies, and Books

- One Book ? "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho. The hero of this short novel discovered his "personal legend" with the help of a king and an alchemist.

- Movies ? Xavier Dolan’s movies. I’m passionate about cinema and photography. This young Quebec director Xavier Dolan, combines these two arts to perfection for me. These films are always full of emotions and highlights every time his characters (often women).

- Music ? I like a lot but it all depends periods and moments too ... I listen so much music and I love above all go to concerts! I like the songs "to texts" especially. At Bourges, we have a music festival "Printemps de Bourges" which is the first festival of the summer season.
I love the French variety (some old as news): Boulevard des Airs' album is my last firm favorite, Vianney, Stromae, Julien Doré, .... I also like the English variety: Adele, Ed Sheeran, Charlie Winston, Ellie Goulding, ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in Quebec last year .... It changed my life, professional and personal level. I have met wonderful people who helped me to build myself eventually !

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my passion for Essential Oils, my travel experiences.

I would love to learn more about plants, cultivation, permaculture. And, improve my English !!! :)

I also love children, I have my French diploma to be host to a summer camp. So I would be happy to spend time with us, They are often very good teachers!
