About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring the world and finding litlle heavens. Becoming more knowledgeable about cultures and the world.

ABOUT ME

I have spent most of my life in France but I have travelled out of my country quite a lot.

For instance I spent a wonderful year in California, several month in India and a few weeks here and there. I love hanging out with people to have a cheerful time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have travelled and helped coursufers on the way whenever I could.

My dream was to become a host and now, I am bout to fulfill it ;).

Perhaps, my best contribution is to talk about couchsurfing, share my experience with my hosts and make them enjoy hosting more people after me.

Send me a message if you are near by.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I went couchsurfing in the USA (Boston & SF) and in Montreal. Both were amazing experience. A lot of encouters with people from all horizons. I have also try in France during a road trip with one of my friend, it went lovely. Last time was in Milan, it was nice :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once went scubba diving in the Carribean sea : it was an amazing experience! Water was warm and everything quiet and then, you start seeing all sorts of colorful lifeforms all around you as you keep swimming. Perfect combination to find inner-peace. My advice, stay calm under water.

More recently I have lived a completely opposite experience: skydiving. Only one word: freefly!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share what I have learnt about the birth of Jazz or some cooking recipes. I have done almost all the trips listed below after I turned eighteen on my own or with friends, using all sort of transportation and accommodations. I can share my experience about them and my impression about the places I have been to.

Tips about Paris/Things to do in Paris :
- jazz clubs (Sunset, Baiser Salé, Duc des Lombards, New Morning, Caveau de la Huchette, Petit Journal...)
