About Me

I'm a landscape designer now living in Dublin. This city contains all the things I love : Lots of water, beautiful architecture, craftsmen, and of course lots of friends and people to meet !
I love to live in joyful and peaceful cities, but I also love to discover noisy or different places during my holidays ; it makes an interesting change in my daily routine !
In the futur, I really would like to work abroad in a lot more countries, so I am trying to discover as much new places as possibles during my free time and holidays ; like this, I can choose more wisely in a few years...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why would you travel, if it's not to discover new people along with new places ? For me, having someone knowing the country where I'am going is really a most. And well, having foreign friends is really entertaining ! It teaches you news ways of living, speaking ( eating of course ) but also new cultures, new plants, landscapes... And it's so much fun ! Now of all times, it's becoming more and more important.

Interests

Walking in the streets while doing some film photography is one of my favorite moment. You can capture in black and white the magic beauty of a wild, lonely plant, a smile, the shadow of some tired chairs. You have to think, again and again, because you can only take the piicture once. How can I make the perfect photography ? You think, you think. While thinking you arrive in front of cratsmen, you visit, exchange with them. How do you do this ? And this ? You get out, it's night time. Let's grab some food and get to a pub, eh ! When you go in a new place, you have to get a taste of the drinks ! After this ? Who knows. Sleeping, watching a movie, just chitchatting while visiting, eating again ?
I like, when I go somewhere, to have a few places I want to visit, but no planning ; Going there, and then, just walking and seeing where my feet would get me to...
