CURRENT MISSION discover other cultures, meet and exchange with various people, learn always, be open to other ideas, views, culture, etc. ABOUT ME Hello dear couch-surfer ! My name is Kevin. I'm living in near Pau (more precisely in Coarraze-Nay) (South-Western France). I am curious about many things and I enjoy traveling, adventures and nature, discoveries and exchanges. I am a natural, open, patient and zen person ! I really like music (play and listen), sports, reading, cooking... and mountains ! I hike a lot and practice climbing. The Pyrénées are my best playground :-) PHILOSOPHY I have a classic life and job. But I try to experience a lot on the side. I am quite active after work, during week-ends, and on holidays. I need to move ! I have already been on 2 trips without money for a few days. Sometimes, I go hitch-hiking... I like theses experiences because I can meet people at random, and they are always very different from me, and each meeting is interesting and bring something new, new ideas, new opinions, etc. I like and I need this opening, I am willing to learn from different people and cultures.

My Interests
As I said previously, I am interested in music (almost all kind of music) and I am a beginner at playing the guitar. However, i have played the clarinet for 6 years. I would become crazy if I would not practice a sport session once a week. Otherwise, I like reading, cooking, parties... Since I have been living in Pau, I am fond of mountaining and climbing. That is my favourite hobby around, and I am so grateful I can experience such beauty every week !
