Hi there, my name is Constantin, I'm 22 and I live in Lyon, France. For the moment, I study in master degree of international relations in Sciences Po Lyon. However, I would like to study language studies and more specificly Iranian languages. I prefer to travel by hitchhiking and walking because the time has another definition in these moments. I feel I have no control over it and it feels good.

I prefer last minute request because it's easier for me to organize. You can write copy paste messages, I don't care at all and I know how much it helps sometimes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After a 1 month travel around Europe, I discovered how rich were the meetings with the people who hosted me. I think Couchsurfing is one of the best way to live such good moments. I'm also interested in hosting people in Lyon, as I love this city and would be glad to show it to someone.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last year, I was in the Albanian part of Macedonia, in a little village close to Tetovo. I arrived there by foot, had no place to sleep and night was falling. As no one seemed to understand me, I put my tent behind an abandoned post office. I felt quite afraid at that moment as a few macedonian warned us not to go there. Suddenly, 2 guys invited me to watch the football match France vs Romania in a bar and we spent all night drinking tea with their friends and visiting the old city of Tetovo. Finally, one of them offered me his haidressing saloon as a shelter for the night !
