About Me

ABOUT ME

I would like to save the world and/or at least make people happier/healthier. I just came back from a year in South America traveling, woofing, learning Spanish and meeting inspiring people.

I enjoy doing all kind of activites including capoeira, bouldering, football, gymnastic, salsa! I am always trying to learn new things. Currently, I am working on my personal trainer certification and my Spanish. I am also in love with good food and always enjoy sharing a good meal with friends.

PHILOSOPHY

Move because you can!

"The obstacles in the path becomes the path. Never forget, within every obstacle is an opportunity to improve our condition."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm trying to host whenever I can! Otherwise, I am mainly organizing event such as barbecue, camping trips, park sessions, etc.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have a few experience of CS around Europe. They all appeared to be really nice experienced and I will do it again for my next travels for sure.

Interests

Enjoy the life, travel and meet some new people.
I have a passion for sustainable issues from energy to food production.

It may sound strange but I am trying to do stuff I am really bad at. It lead me to start capoeira, climbing, guitar, etc. with more or less success but at the end I always learnt something from it.
