About Me

French engineering student who just graduated, I am taking a gap year to travel and meet as many many people and cultures as possible. In particular, I aim to go to Asia, which is the only continent I have never visited ! (sorry Antarctica, I am not counting you here :P)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I talked about my project with friends who have been using CS for years, and they immediately recommended it to me. I really think it could be the best way to really discover the culture of the country I am visiting.
For my travel project, I will probably be away from France most of the time, but would be glad to host you when I am in Paris ! :)

Films : So many... Cloud Atlas, Matrix, Kill Bill, Le vent se lève, Mononoke Princess, Inception, Imitation Game, ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Not "an extraordinary" life experience, but several very cool ones : lucid dreams. (It is when you're dreaming and you're aware of it, so you can basically control everything in your dream)
I am very much interested in this, and usually succeed to have a lucid dream every couple months. I would love to exchange about this subject if you're also interested in !

Teach, Learn, Share

Did you know ? When you watch the stars and they seem to twinkle, it is not due to them, but rather to the Earth atmosphere : it is a bit unhomogeneous (some places have denser air than others, and these places moves quick), so it modifies a bit the trajectory of light.
Your turn ! :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Culture, smile, and food are important. But to be honest, what I love are the good talks ! I really like when people express freely what they think, without any fear of being judged.
Through these conversations I hope that, if our cultures are different enough, I could give as much to you as you are giving me !
