3 days
Hi! My name is Morgane. I'm a full time student, curently on exchange in South Korea. While here, I'm trying to travel a few places around like Japan, China and here, Korea. I've already been to the South of SK, Jeju Island and Kyushu. After my exams are done (at the end of October) : I want to go to Sokcho and explore the mountains. In December I will probably travel around a bit more. And then, I will be going for one month in Japan and explore the ski spots... Next semester I will be back to my parent's (and my childhood) home in Les Houches, next to Chamonix, to work for an internship in Geneva. I'm a verry curious person. I enjoy cooking, sewing, climbing, paragliding, learning new things, solo travelling etc. We are not hosting right now because of me being abroad, but if you are in Chamonix and looking for someone to hang out, or a place to crash after I come back, send a message, don't hesitate! My parents don't speak verry good English but are the sweetest people on earth...

One of the most beautiful places I’ve seen! From the train ride in, you know its going to be amazing, seeing the mountains and crystal clear rivers. I was here in the off-season (September) so did not do any skiing, but I took the Téléphérique Aiguille du Midi (tram that takes you up the highest points of the Alps). It was around €80, and if you’re not afraid of heights, I 100% recommend this. You get amazing views, you can walk around and hike on some trails at super high points, they have little museum about all the people who did extreme climbing and sports there, and there’s a cafe. I found the people in this village very welcoming, you will want to learn some French if possible. And i felt safe even though it was not so busy. I stayed at Hotel de L’arve, it was not expensive and it was very cozy. I was able to get everywhere by walking (train station, attractions, restaurants)
