Hi everyone !
So I'm Arnaud, I work as a freelance retoucher and photographer in Melbourne. Love playing guitar, harmonica and didg, cheeky drinks and trying out new things.
I studied cinematography in Paris, and I'm really passionate about lighting, and working an image.
Now I'll leave some mystery, so we have things to talk about if we meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well because this website is a great idea ! It's based on helping each other out, sharing places, stories, experiences... This is how it's supposed to be !

As for books, I love Amélie Nothomb, Agatha Christie, Thomas Harris.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got spat on by 6 alpacas simultaneously (but I know them, we're cool now)
And I don't know how amazing it is, but I went on a non-scheduled on-foot trip around the highlands of Scotland, for a month, with a hell of a heavy backpack.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach photography, retouching, guitar, French...
And I'm pretty much ready to learn anything one can offer.

What I Can Share with Hosts

In addition to the previous section, I can share good times, pictures, beer (or pretty much any drink you want). I'm reeaally easy to live with.
