About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Developing two TV series projects.

ABOUT ME

I'm a screenwriter, I studied screenwriting in Los Angeles. I'm a hiking/trekking lover, I trekked in several countries, France, Spain, Italy, Canada, the US... I love the wild. Though I can turn into a real party animal sometimes XD

I'm also a big wine enthusiast. I know a lot about oenology. Can't wait to share any of that with you ;)

PHILOSOPHY

"No expectations, no disappointment".

“All negativity is caused by an accumulation of psychological time and denial of the present. All forms of fear are caused by too much future, and not enough presence. And all forms of nonforgiveness are caused by too much past, and not enough presence.” ― Eckhart Tolle

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had amazing experiences through couchsurfing. I met incredible people. Got helped and helped other people. Getting advised by local people when discovering a new place is priceless. Just like I love giving tips to people who come visit Paris (my hometown).

On the downside, I've seen how CS has evolved over time. It really used to be about sharing. Now a lot of guys just use it as a hook up app (though I'm not sure it's very efficient) and only host females. As a male, it's become almost impossible to find a host, which is the reason why I decided to stop hosting people as frequently as I used to. I find it sad though.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiked across the Alps, from north to south (from Mont Blanc to the Mediterrean Sea).

Face-to-face encounter with two bear cubs in the middle of the wilderness in Canada. Couldn't fully enjoy this moment cause I was afraid the mother was around. That was actually a miracle that she wasn't...
