Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Sales Manager for a SMB in the French Alps !
I will be away from home from 28/07/2018 to 15/08/2018 at least, during this period, I will not be able to accept any housing requests.
ABOUT ME
I love the mountains and everything you can do in the mountains ! I recently moved to Aix les Bains because it's the perfect combination for enjoying water at the lake (Lac du Bourget) and the Moutains (Alpes & Jura).
PHILOSOPHY
Do whatever you want as long as it doesn't have negative impact on others.
And act with others as you would like them to act with u !
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I enjoy spending time with the couchsurfers I host, so do my flatmates.
I love to speak foreign languages and always if needed try to adapt to my hosts. I've learned a bit of Russian with some guests but it is complicated. :/ We have usually what is called "apéro" on our terrace to welcome the couchsurfers, and then we talk about travel experiences and lot of others things! Several times we spent some hours playing the guitar and singing alltogether
And... if I am not busy, I sometimes bring our travelers to the most awesome places of the area !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Got hit by a car and performed the biggest flight I have ever done !
Teach, Learn, Share
Confucius who was a wise and cultured man said that among any group of 3 persons there is at least one who can teach him something. I think the same way, even though I am not as wise nor cultured as he was :)
I think I can learn on every subject, and if not I can also share what I know ;)
