About Me

Arrived like many others here to get the job! Common story: no chance to get one in France, neither in other part of the world (complicated in my working area)

I'm actually back here in UAE for about six months now. Will not be the perfect guide, but know some places definitely here and around!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Always open to know some new people, I consider myself as a global citizen.

Also as I am a kind of new here, and because I got a special life (=work) planning, I have pretty much time beside.

Interests

Various. The cultural side here in Dubai is actually not that developed (if we would compare with Paris... mmmh different let's say!) but there are a few things to see anyway.

I like beach, sports of many kind, movies, planes, music, drinking, good food, talking with people... well, enjoying life as many would, I guess!!

Lately, for about two months now, I started to go driving in the desert with the 'Emirates Offroaders' group, definitely the country to experience this! And enjoying, for sure...

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: electro, pop, dance, french and latino music as well

Movies: my best one could be 'the good, the bad and the ugly' as an example, so I like comedy, (good) SFI movies, action (but with a good script, not any)

Books: I've been reading in the past, now more on magazines actually

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After two very difficult years jobless, was thinking about leaving my passion: flying... but could finally find it back here in UAE, when almost hopeless!! :-)

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach languages, sure! (pick one of them: French, Spanish or English).
One thing is being good at something... the other -totally different I think- is to be pedagogic and able to transmit your knowledge!

And as I started very freshly to learn Mandarin, I'm also looking for Arabic. Or learn anything interesting, which covers a lot for sure!

Share? Same answer as B4, share the interests globally...

What I Can Share with Hosts

My personality, my knowledges, my points of view, the french cooking I know... well the list could go long!!

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Martinique, Peru, South Africa, Switzerland, Turkmenistan, United Arab Emirates, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada, Chile, France
