About Me

My name is Antony, I'm 25 and I'm French. For a long time I stayed in my hometown near Paris and grew up there, studying and working. Last year I went to Australia and lost everything : my flat, my job, all the security I had. Do I regret it? Absolutely not. I met so many people there and did incredible things that changed my life and my way of seeing things. I love being abroad; I love meeting people from abroad, discovering new cultures, and I like the feeling that goes with it. I workek in Sydney for a few months and then traveled in Australia. I then asked myself this question : what do you wanna do in life? Well the answer is pretty simple: I wanna be happy. And for that I know that at the moment all I wanna do is stay away from France. I'm a very easy going person with a huge sense of humour. I'm mostly a party guy, but I like to think that I'm mature enough to know when to do it and not to do it. I'm a hard worker, and I've alays said that if you want something done right do it yourself. But the people I meet are probably the best souvenirs I have from my trips, and I'm eternally grateful to them for all these good memories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people, and discovering new cultures. I think that everyone has something to put on the table, and couchesurfing is a great way to do it.

Interests

I like having a drink with my friends, telling new stories and discovering new things. I'm a huge movie fan since I'm a kid, and I go to the movies often. I'm also an editor for a website on cinema. I don't earn any money for that (not yet? who knows), I just do it because I like writing about something I love. I also love to hang out with my friends on week ends, it's always a good time.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music : Muse, definitly on of my favourite bands. But I'm very open minded: I like rock music, but I listen to a lot of electro/house music for example.
Movies : Bad Boys 2 is like the Bible to me. I love every second of this movie. It's hilarious, and the action is incredible. Otherwise I love David Fincher's movies (Fight Club is one of my favourite movies as well), Steven Spielberg's, Michael Mann's (Collateral, masterpiece), and many more.
I use to love reading when I was younger, but as I grew older I became more of a visual person.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My journey in Australia, without hesitation.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good feelings! Most of all I think that sharing opinions on things that are different depending on the country is the best thing ever. I like to talk about my travels, and give advice to people too.
