I am a traveler. Journalist and translator in theory, my passion is bumping around the world finding new people, new cultures and new ways of living in order to widen my perspective of life. I am always curious and seeking knowledge and experience that can make me better, so that I can make the world a tiny bit better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I learnt the value of hospitality from my parents: always having around both known and unknown people, staying at our place without asking for anything, I learnt how pleasant it is when you feel at home at a stranger's place. So, wherever I live I like sharing my home and bread with those who may need it, and expect to feel the same way when staying with random fellow human beings.

Music, Movies, and Books

Black music. New waves of hip hop, trip hop, reggae, dub... And also meaningful electronic music, drum and bass.
I am a voracious consumer of cinema of any kind, except for romantic comedies in general. When I grow up I want to be Hayao Miyazaki.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen Syria before the war.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am fluent in English, French and Spanish, which I will be glad to share. Everywhere I go I like to learn about the local language, culture, traditions and everyday life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer my hosts all the thankfulness I have, and a place in my house wherever my house is.
I consider myself a fairly good cook, and that I will be eager to share with my hosts!
