CURRENT MISSION

I'm still trying to figure out what my mission is!

ABOUT ME

I have been moving from a country to another every 2, 3 or 5 years throughout my whole life, so I can't really say that I belong to somewhere. Nowadays I feel closer to Bordeaux, since I have been living here for the past 6 years. I love to travel (who doesn't?) and to meet travelers. I think one of the advantages of hosting couchsurfers is that it makes you feel like you're travelling without moving :-)

PHILOSOPHY

I don't know if I am objective about myself, but I would say that I'm definitly an empiristic person. I tend to be realistic and down to earth although I'm told that I can be quite "head in the clouds" sometimes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope that people will enjoy couchsurfing in our home as much as I enjoyed couchsurfing to people's place!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only experienced couchsurfing once in Germany, but it was a really good experience, and the persone welcomed me in the kindest way. I have learned much more about this country staying at this person's place rather than I would have by staying in a hostel.
We hosted people from Canada and from Belgium at our place, they were all very friendly people and makes plenty of good memories. I'm looking forward to meet new people who will perhaps become new friends :-)

Interests

I enjoy going to the movies, reading a good book, meeting friends, outdoors experiences, surfing and snowboarding whenever I have the chance. I love cooking and learning new recipees. I like very much being told unusual, funny, wise or adventurous stories... I don't mind if they are true or not, I just love stories!
