ABOUT ME

Half french, half-american. Born in Paris, raised in Florida before moving to Haiti and then back to Florida and then to Guadeloupe and then to the Ivory Coast and then back to Florida and now in Paris. Just turned 31, I'm an open-minded, easy to get along with type of person. Nickname as a kid: Cool Breeze! I've been living in Paris for 6 years now (soon 7). I live by myself in Montmartre, probably the most charming neighborhood in Paris, love meeting people from around the world...and I have a couch!

PHILOSOPHY

"I say open your mind..be formless, shapeless, like water..Now you put water into a cup, it becomes a cup..put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle..you put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot..Now water can flow, or it can crash..be water my friend" - Bruce Lee

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been told that I am a good host! :) I haven't surfed yet, only hosted!
I know my profile shows only a 25% response rate but I do respond...at least I will try. This summer I got a little overwhelmed with CS, 10 requests/day so I decided to take some time off! Sorry to those I never replied to...nothing personal!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, my experience has been great!! I've been lucky to host some awesome guests!! No bad experience yet!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen: I grew up living mainly in 3rd World countries so I've seen people who suffer the most, still enjoy life and smile (thought me to never complain about the small things in life ).
Done: Quit my job about a year ago to start my own company...and I haven't given up yet!!!
