Musician, teacher and entrepreneur travelling in South America!
I mostly play and teach music. I also did a lot of Entrepreneurship, video work and game development.

Traveling by bicycle or train is one of my favourite things to do.
I'm planning a nomadic lifestyle in a music-packed van in the coming years.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I often travel alone to force myself to meet locals. Usually not interested in the big flashy things but rather the small details and their history.

I like hosting last-minute surfers too: I love the spontaneity of it and I've been in that exact situation many times myself!

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I often get kind of bored, placid and too comfortable... I start to think that I've seen everything this planet can offer. And then all of a sudden a fantastic person or a stunning wonder of Nature proves me wrong, brings in a wave of emotions and renews my faith in this world and makes me super thankful to be alive! I cherish these moments of lucidity and profound humanity above all else.
