About Me

I love traveling and discover new countries. The most important for me it's not the museum and old stones, it's to meet people, to learn new things, to discover new ideas. Usually when you meet someone who traveler a lot, he is always open mind and learnt humility.
In every country I learnt something new. My English is not really perfect, but I find always the way to share.
I love food, wines, dance, playing cards or games like backgammon, dices. I remember I was in Amazonia with Indian people and we find a way to communicate in playing cards. One other way to communicate it’s the music, unfortunately I have no quality to sing.
In my home, I have a dog. I love animals.
I'm journalist, spending my time between Paris and St Georges, small village in the middle of France.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I discover Couchsurfing when I lived in Bodrum, Turkey. Because, my friend had always some users of couchsurfing. So when her house was full, some went sleep in my house. I'm always curious to meet people.
