CURRENT MISSION

Experience the world as no one did before.

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy going guy who loves food, drinks, art, languages and traveling. I currently work in Marseille as an English teacher in secondary school.

I love slow travel. (Re)discovering places. Socializing with people from all over the world. Being open to crazy adventures. I'm more interested in discovering the everyday life of a city than its most famous monuments.

Apart from that I love to prepare good meals to share with friends.

PHILOSOPHY

The journey is definitely part of the trip!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love hosting people and help them discover the city. When I travel, I always try to offer a typical french meal to my hosts to give them a taste of France.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CS has been an amazing experience until now. My first experience as a CS was in Norway, but I have also met a lot of members in Argentina and Switzerland! CS is definitely the best option to quickly meet the greatest guides and loveliest souls.

Interests

I love travelling, cooking, hiking, bike riding and going out for drinks with friends. I also like to chill and stay at home watching movies and reading books. I loooooove going to museums. There was a time when I wondered if I could spend my whole life in The Louvre, but I’ve now been conquered by the thousand shades of blue of the Mediterranean sea.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook and share my favorite recipes. Sweet or savory ;)
I love travelling (of course) and I would gladly share some amazing travelling secrets with those who deserve it.
I’ve studied languages and I think they are a great conversation theme. And if you want to practice a language I know, I would gladly spend hours chatting with you.
