CURRENT MISSION

Japan is the travel of my life. Here's why : I'm half French half Japanese, and I don't know my biologic dad. So this travel is first to know where I come from, and second to try to find him and to meet him. Not an easy task, I know. So I wanna learn about Japan, and also about how to find someone in this tiny but crouded country?... That's why meeting new people, Japanese or expats, is one of the most important things here.

ABOUT ME

I had a kind of boring life few years ago in France (regular job, house with a nice white fence...you know), and one day I got too bored. So I booked a ticket to Australia. And I stayed a year over there and in NZ. One of the most intelligent things I've ever done! This changed everything. This changed me. Now I know I get bored too fast, and I need to breath new air. So here's me now : trying to follow my small and big dreams.

PHILOSOPHY

"There's always a solution". I've learned that when I was in Mayotte island. And this can be very helpful, for all kinds of situations.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm couchsurfing because I definitely think that meeting the locals is the best way to learn all (or nearly) about a country. This can go from the best bar of this little town, to a 3 pages list of the things to do in the entire country.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is important in my life, I've got an huge playlist and everytime I like a new music, I add it in. The magic thing with music is its strength with which it can remind you a moment or an emotion. It's as strong as the olfactive memory.
The only books I enjoy are the travels narratives. The last one I've red is "a walk in the woods" by Bill Brison, and it made me laugh so loud sometimes!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've realised that I've got a weird chance. I explain. In Mayotte, I saw and touched this long-tailed bird called "paille-en-queue". In NZ, I saw and touched this emblematic bird called kiwi. In Iceland, I saw and touched this coloured bird called puffin. See where I'm going? I've got a weird chance with birds. So, I'm looking forward the bird I'll meet in Japan!

Teach, Learn, Share

Sharing about photography tips is always something I appreciate. Talking about my or your travels is also something I could do for hours.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well, I'm nearly 24 (30 officially, but you should not talk about that), I've travelled a bit, I had several different jobs, so I think the best thing I could offer is to share my experiences.
