About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Photographe a Lyon

ABOUT ME

Don't like to travel far far away due to my environmental consciousness. So i am travelling most around mediterranea and Europe. By road not by plane when i can. I like hitchiking too.

Most of my trips where in Turkey and a bit around.

PHILOSOPHY

Really involved about what we have to change for a better life, humanist, ecologist. I was in the occupy mouvement in France, and now i am moving on differents groups/collectives.

Like everybody i guess, sometimes it's hard for me not to be in contradiction between what i feel/think and what i need to do for working.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My first experience on Couch-surfing was to be in Nice for anti-g20 summit at the beginning of november 2011.

Actually i think i'll get closer from the Lyon CS's community

>>IMPORTANT>> I'm not living alone, but with 2 others people, so i need to be told few time before the coming, to ask them if they are ok!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only one time in Nice till now. I plan a trip in Greece at the end of march.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been in Irak (kurdish side) in 2007!
No more than 10 days.

And to revolutionary native-american communities in Chiapas (Mexico / comunidades indigenas zapatistas)

But moreover, what tell me i don't need to go far away is that one of the greatest trip i did was hitchiking 2 weeks between the french city of Arles and Barcelona, through Cévènnes.

Teach, Learn, Share

In general i try to learn the language of the country where i'm going.
I like learning foreign language. I tried with italian, turkish, kurdish, nederland, german. But i can really speak French, english and espagnol.
Actually i'm on greek.
