About Me

Please contact me no more than 10days in advance for a couch. Thank you!
I live in Tahiti since march 2018.

CURRENT MISSION

Discovering, learning and sharing

ABOUT ME

I enjoy discovering new cultures, new people and new countries. My favourite means of transport is my bicycle. After a 20-month trip by bicycle from France to Indonesia, i got back to work for a while in Alaska (5months, 2014), then back to france until early 2018, working in land surveying companies.
Now i am currently working in a land surveying company (geometre) since march 2018 in Papeete. I came here because I am really curious about polynesian culture and I really wanna go surveying on some remote islands, like I did in Alaska.

My hobbies are cycling, music (listening, playing (saxophone -guitar - ukulele))

In this website i would like to meet new people, preferrably around my age. I can offer accomodation and play the guide if im available!

PHILOSOPHY

DO WHAT YOU LOVE, LOVE WHAT YOU DO!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During my trips, i often sleep in inhabitant's houses or i meet some penpals.
We always had a great time and to meet someone from a foreign country is really a great exchange of cultures. My previous bicycle trip gave me even more experience about Couchsurfing. I had mostly good experiences and I believe everyone can learn from each other's even we do not have exactly the same interests.

Music, Movies, and Books

Pink Floyd! They are my gods.
