Hello I'm Etienne from Strasbourg ! I'm very curious about almost everything and I always look on the bright side of life !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to meet people from other cultures, visit other countries or great cities...

Interests

I studied cello, and now I'm finishing my conducting studies in Strasbourg's Conservatory. I'm very passionate about music and specially opera. I'm also very interested in history (France history mainly but also Europe history).

I really love to discover and learn new languages ! I'm fluent in french and english and learning german. My italian and spanish are a little bit rusty (I need more practive !).
Recently I've studied a little russian (which I can read) and japanese's hiragana.
