I grew up on Reunion island in the indian ocean, then came to Lyon to study mathematics and physics, then stayed to achieve a degree in social anthropology.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In the extent that you are allowed to stay with locals, couchsurfing makes meeting people and discovering a city or a country easier. The reason why I want to travel so much is to better understand foreign cultures and atmospheres, which can only happen if you are something else than a tourist in a hostel.

Also, Lyon is a marvelous city, I will love to help you visit it.

Also, the more my english improves the better.

Interests

Almost anything. From myrmecology to tennis, from dolls to cinema, I am very curious.
