About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn about our world and its people !

ABOUT ME

I'm curious about other cultures. I love discovering new places in this world and be delighted about how our diversity is great.

I'm currently doing a PhD on the dynamics of indigenous agricultural systems in French Guiana (Amazonian rainforest). Thus, these last years I have travelled a lot between France, French-Guiana and Brazil, and it was very amazing to learn more about the Amazonian way of life. Very good experience!

PHILOSOPHY

I try to give meaning to my life, being happy and in concert with me and the others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to receive people at home when I'm at home... Quite difficult at this moment because I'm always travelling for my thesis...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had my first experience travelling with couchsurfing in july 2011 in Martinique where I met people really nice! I was very surprising by the simplicity and trust of our relationships. A so nice experience! With some of them it has been the beginning of a real friendship and until now we are sharing news and experiences!
I had experiences hosting people a few years ago in my collocation in Toulouse.

For me, CS is of course the pleasure of discovering and learning about a new place with people who live there. But it is also an opportunity to meet and exchange with open-minded people who share a same perception of the world and are interested in others peoples, cultures and way of life.

Interests

I love all kind of nature and out-door activities! Specially mountain trekking, swimming (and snorkeling!). I’m dynamic and curious about nature and enjoy naturalist activities like bird watching, although I’m a poor ornithologist ;-)I'm interested organic agriculture too.

And of course, I love music, parties, shows, culture...and spending time with friends, sharing a good meal, dreaming about a better world ;-)
