About Me

I love to meet people and learn about nex languages and new cultures. I cannot go anywhere without my camera, and I can spend a lot of time to observe things and people to take one picture, or just let my imagination go somewhere. I like to spend time in reading book (science -fiction, fiction and travel story, political fiction etc), and watching movies and talk about it.
I like to speak about political and sociological subject, but only if it comes naturally in the conversation.

I learned so much this year. This is the first time I take the time to travel in my life, and discovering all these way of thinking and looking at the world, teached me maybe as much as 30 years of life.

I like to party and drink some beers and the people are up to, but a good conversation with tea on a couch can be as fun as dancing all night long. The most important for me is the feeling with the people !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I live in Lyon since I'm a little boy. And now I have decided to explore the rest of the word during the next few months (years ?). I like the idea of meeting people living in the cities where I go. Learning some words of the country, meet people who knows the local places is such a pleasure.
