Axel, 24 years old. I have just finished my studies and obtained my Master’s degree. I am going to travel to Chili for one year from February 2016.

I grew up near Bordeaux, famous for its wine reputation. During my studies, I lived in different towns in France (Bordeaux, Lyon, Paris) and abroad (Linkoping, Dublin). I use to travel and I like meeting people and learning about cultures

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Some friends recommended me to use this way to meet open-minded people and to have real life experience which are exactly my travel expectations.

I am a new surfer!

Centres d'intérêt

I am fond of music from all genres and all periods, without giving you an exhaustive list, I like: Rock, Reggae, Dub, Ska, Electronic music (House, Techno, Minimal), Rap & Hip Hop, and of course World music (Bossa nova, African’s one).
I practiced Hockey for 8 years when I was younger, generally I like practicing or watching team sport as football, rugby, basketball or volley. Without being passions, I am interested by photography, cultural projects and emergent cultures (about painting, dancing or music)

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Like I said before I am fond of music from all genres. I am not comfortable with the idea to rank it; it depends on my mood and the context. But to take the first step to you, some tracks randomly pick up from my playlist:
"Air France" - Joris Delacroix
Aurelio Martinez - Ineweyu
The Pretenders – Precious
J-Live – Satisfied
US3 – Cantaloop

About movies, I am not really a cinema lover and I avoid the blockbusters. Among movies that I prefer: Fight Club, Usual Suspect, The Island. It is the same thing for series, I didn’t watch a lot but I liked Breaking Bad, Hannibal or True detective.

I haven’t the habit to read books; Actually, I read essentially news about economics, geopolitics or simply current affairs.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Erasmus is definitively one of the best experiences that I lived. I was at Linkoping in Sweden and it was the opportunity to live in an international environment and to meet people from all around the world: amazing experience. If you hadn’t the luck to do it, go back to one's schooldays just for that :)

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can teach French or practice English with you. I would like to improve my Spanish. I expect to share some travel and life experiences that you did or I, and simply exchange about our cultures and life styles.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

My good mood and some funny stories about French people. Cook and share a good meal, in addition I know how to cook some sweet French deserts !
