About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Having a break from my job, my cities, my habits. I’m on my way to Greece (Athens), to volunteer for an association that help refugees. As I will start at the beginning of November, I wanted to take the time to move there by the road (train, car, hitchhiking), and have some stop on the way !

As I won’t stay long in every place I go, I think it would be better to get along with local people and get a quick, but right, feeling about the place !

JOB/PASSION

I actually work for an art/cultural association we created 6 years ago, in an old abandonned building reconverted in what we call a "creative lab" in the Guillotière borrow, center of Lyon. We hosted a gallery-cafe on the ground floor, open artistic coworking place and artist's studios. In the idea to always be open to any idea/people, we organize eclectic events as huge collective exhibitions, concerts, lectures, performances, workshops, conferences, afterworks and so on. Using the all building as a playground. We kept on going with an old warehouse, for three years. This project went to an end at the end of 2020 - as it was temporary occupation -and now waiting for better days to open a new place.

ABOUT ME

Open minded, always in a good mood !

PHILOSOPHY

'' Le vrai voyage de découverte ne consiste pas à voir de nouveaux paysages, mais à avoir de nouveaux yeux"

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hey everybody, couchsurfers ! During my multiple travels (South America, India, Russia...) I used a lot couch surfing and had amazing time with amazing people ! Because they helped me a lot, and i know now how better it is to come in a new city knowing people, and sometime have some comfort and intimacy ! In order to help back, and also to keep on practicing languages, i would love to welcome people from anywhere !
