Overview
About Me
Like most of the people here...I love travelling. I've been lucky to visit a lot of different countries, and open my mind to other people and cultures. Getting to know the world I live in is something essential for me, especially the amazing nature places that this planet has to offer.
I like to meet different people, learn others cultures, taste different food, see and experience the beauty of nature, speak an other language...
Also I love flying and I've always wanted to become a pilot. To fulfill this dream I joined the Navy after high school to become a fighter pilot, after 8 months of awesome aerobatic flying I wasn't selected among the few ones so I decided to work with another passion of mine : photography and cinema. It's been six years that I now live and work in Paris as a film director. https://www.a-magnan.com/
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I backpacked for three months through the US when I was 18, couchsurfing the whole time, that's how I discovered this amazing community. I'm using it since then, travelling and hosting !
