Overview
About Me
First of all, I speak every language with a French accent.
Right at this moment I'm traveling in Brasil for two weeks with my girlfriend. It is the first time I visit Brasil.
I am trying to visit more countries and get to know other cultures better. Nature and hiking interest me tremendously as my parents took my brother and I to climb mountains when I was a toddler still in diapers.
I work way too much so I like to de-stress and a good rest far away from my daily life. I would love to have more free time in my life but it isn't easy.
I love animals, especially cats and squirrels of all sorts. Not a big fan of mosquitoes and flies though.
I listen to podcasts everyday.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I found out about Couchsurfing from my girlfriend as she travels often using it. I couchsurfed with her in Mexico, Canada, and now in Brasil. It is so amazing to have met the people we have met through Couchsurfing. The hosts are friendly, easygoing, and very helpful. What an exchange of cultures and languages!
It is the most authentic way to travel and it is the alternative to the very commercialised world we live in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
