About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Spending some good time in Europe while the season is off in Patagonia.

ABOUT ME

I'm 26 now, and I've been traveling since I was 17, when I spent a year on my own in the USA. There I learn to live the diversity, to enjoy miscellaneous life. This world, pretty hard to spell, is one of my favorite, and it's the way I experience. Trying to avoid habits, to use every differents paths, to follow not the main but the marginal, talking, meeting, walking to everybody and everywhere. My goal is to enjoy life out of space and time ; until then I study anthropology to learn about diffent ways of making Life. I am really intersted in the power of beliefs on men. I also love reading and writing. I love walking through Paris, traveling as soon as I can. Photography and writing are my main passions. Then I love going to the countryside and do long walk in Nowhere, around nature.

PHILOSOPHY

Diversity is what bring you alive. The need of discovering and meeting others, enjoying difference is what make you unique. Going all around the Earth and coming back to your place is what makes you feel you belong to it, to this world. A world which has endured tough moments as well as great experiences, but which can be so beautiful if you look at it through the filter of wonderment. I don't need great material to be happy, cause simplicity and destitution - two things that a travel can bring - are my happiness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have no house but many home and you are welcome in all of them !

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have done any official Couchsurfing yet. But, I have met people during my walks and my travels, and when the connexion was good I would be hosted. As so, I've been hosted by an old priest in the south of France, I've met Native American and got to stay in there place for a while, I have been hosted by an admirable Lady in the US for three weeks, etc.
