I never know how to describe myself in a few words, how to summarize "all about me"... But here is my current (short) story :

I spent 3 years working in a bakery in my home town, travelling during all my vacations, 2 weeks at a time... but I soon realized it wasn't long enough, so I took three months off on summer 2012 and went to Iceland. It was my first big travel, abroad and alone. And it was amazing ! Then, back to "real life"... I wondered if the true real life wasn't the one I had on the road. As soon as I came back I knew I would leave again. Just had to pick a destination... Since then I have been traveling a lot, eyes wide open, learning and growing from everything, every experience, bad or good. Adapting, always, to the atmosphere.

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I didn't have a lot of CS experiences before going to Iceland. But there I traveled with 6 others CSer, I've been hosted 10 nights in 2 different places, and I met a lot of other travelers on the road. Couchsurfing had made my trip so much more interesting ! I'm on it because I like the way it connect people.

Interests

Traveling of course, for a lot of different reasons...
And : photography, drawing, hiking, hitchhiking, coffee, chocolate, cooking, making tattoos (I travel with my equipement), beer and wine, maps, handicrafts, dreaming, living in the present without being nostalgic of the past or worry about the futur, thinking about life... I love to push my limits, to learn things by experience, to sit without doing anything when I arrive in a wonderful place, to take my time sometimes, to hurry some other times...
