About Me

ABOUT ME

A globetrotter who loves to meet people and discover new things to feel happy. Big need of culture as well (films, music, shows, exhibitions...). I love speaking in other languages and discover other's cultures. As I work really hard all-year round, my pleasure is to build human relationships :)

PHILOSOPHY

It's better to go one time to ten places than going to one place ten times...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to host people in Lyon and to be hosted while travelling in France and abroad. I met really nice people so I trust this CS philosophy to discover and share cultures.

I crashed in Zonme house in Pau when I was lost in town, without a place to sleep...
