About Me

Born in South of France, grew up in Guadeloupe Island (in the Caribbean), before moving at the age of 18 to Montréal, Canada, where I'm still living at the moment.

After studying Entrepreneurship (creating my startup) and Business Strategy for a few years I've finally decided to drop this business oriented path. I'm now a volleyball coach so don't hesitate if you want to play together, always down for some volleyball (especially beach volley).

Love slow traveling, especially meeting people and discovering new cultures. I've done some hitchhiking trips in the past and loved that experience!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CS is a wonderful way to meet new people and to learn so much on different cultures/languages/countries. I traveled all around Mexico thanks to CS and I learned so much about this amazing country.

Interests

I'm practicing mainly Volley-Ball but like to do any kind of sport (except running, that's really not for me !). Badminton, tennis, ping pong, hand ball or any other one, I'm open and would like to try any other new sport.

I like listening and playing any kind of music (from classical to Reggae, electronic music, Zouk - you can't live in Guadeloupe without listening to zouk or kompa).
In fact, my instrument has been the piano for many years and I've tried the drums and guitar for fewer years.
