About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get to know new people, new cultures, new ways of life, as much as possible !

I love traveling around the world, I want to get to know where we live as much as I can.

I like spontaneous people, I think spontaneity is the best we can get from people

PHILOSOPHY

I strongly believe in destiny. What happens happens for a reason, and it's suppose to happen this way. Believing in destiny is one of the thing which helps me the most to go on, and move on.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

from time to time I go to some CS meeting and events. When I travel I always try to surf at least a little, or meet CS community people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed a little in Scandinavia, when I was an Erasmus student in Sweden, in Ecuador as well and Austria.

I have hosted a little at home. Each couchsurfing experience makes me want more and more grab my backpack and jump out till unknown place !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I traveled to Canada, in 2003 all I wanted to see whales. So we went on the St Laurent and I will always remember these huge whales and small Belugas we have seen.

For Christmas 2012, I was in the United States, and we went to Monument Valley. I won't forget the greatness of nature. It made me realize how small we are facing to the nature...

In March 2013, I swam in the Artic ocean (the ocean was 4°C, by -12°C outside) !

In 2014 I went to Madagascar, where I've lived unbelievable experiences. With some friends we went to the Alley of Baobabs. I was able to climbed the Baobab itself and even sleep in a hammock up there ! Oh and what was the most amazing thing? To be able to see milky way... Amazing...

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to cook a little, and how to dance ! I know a bit of salsa...
Hopefully I can share about my French culture, and my vision of life...

I want to share, and I think Coushsurfing is really about sharing
