ABOUT ME

Let's listen to them in the references/friends comments.. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Be happy, take the most of the life at the location where you are, never complain about what you don't have (secret of happyness!), optimistic and positive, open-minded, no regrets, always discover...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Once you are quite sure about your dates, please post a Couchsurfing request. It helps me to organize the CS planning, to get sure everybody can get a bed, and won't sleep on the floor, sharing warmness with my dog :)
By the way, I supply beds, time, showers, water, internet... but I rely on you to buy your own food and drinks. Super market at 10 min from home :) This way, I will be pretty sure that my fridge won't be plundered, as it has happened already :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined CS 9y ago, was quite crowded with CSers at home, and met only with great people, so nice experience :)
I had to stop to host for a while,. Moving to Paris now
When you have been leaving abroad, and sometimes in difficult countries for so many years, hospitality and mutual aid has become completely natural :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I am very currious about life, and eager to discover and learn. So I can teach/share plenty of interesting things, fruit of my life and travels.
And I have a very interesting job, impacting everybody, but which is quite a mistery for most of the people, so just ask and you will be flooded with explanations :)
