CURRENT MISSION

"It's time to start living the life you've imagined" - Well i couldn't agree more. So i decided to leave an ad agency three years ago, and start travelling. Incredible experiences and people met! This belief keep me happy every day

ABOUT ME

Philippe, 27, french. More quiet than crazy, I prefer chilled "music lounge style" moments with friends instead of Night Clubs 5 times a week.

My moments and memories are made of great people, awesome landscape, and as often as possible, wildlife!

Simplicity, loyalty and good values, as hard as it can be, is what I aim!

PHILOSOPHY

It's time to start living the life you have imagined.

Do your best to be happy, asap! It can start today, that's how it worked for me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

Any kind of movies (not too girly please), happy to watch and discover new stuff!

Any kind of music as well. Gospel to Classic. I used to produce some music, especially hiphop instrumental.
In my early 20's, i was DJ too - Dirty House, French Electro and old school Hip Hop was my favourite. I am very very keen to listen your stuff!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While travelling you always meet great people sharing thoughts and experience. Earth Quake, 18 meters Scuba Diving, Bath with Elephants, 3 months on a island, Road trips with randomly met people, DJ in Clubs, Cowboy in an Australian Ranch... Travellers talk about this lack of people here to listen to your stories. Well I can't wait to hear yours!

If I have to select one, it will be one year ago. Quitting a pretty good job in France and went travelling for one year and a half, that's was great! Then followed 8 month of hard work. July 26th, I was ready for the show and just realised how awesome the life can be when you decide to be free and follow your dreams without planning any further.

So thanks to my job, I was sit there, in the London Olympic Stadium, for the Olympics Opening Ceremony.
This feeling submerged me.

What's yours?
