About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Getting the best job possible. No matter the country I'll have to move to for.

ABOUT ME

Management Student at EMLYON, I'm from Paris. I play basketball and like to run, I also enjoy writing on websites as I created one in 2010 called www.posterdunk.com

I'm funny, open-minded and always positive. If any worry happens, I do everything I can to fix it and just enjoy the rest of the day. I'm relax and always on-time.

I am a fan of late-night discussions about any topic: politics, arts (movies, books, philosophy, comics, architecture, paintings), sports or less surious stuffs.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy the day while it is lasting.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Being open minded about it. Looking forward to meet new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None - yet.

Interests

My first occupation is to write, read and talk about basketball. So I'd say the sport is my first main interest, especially the NBA. But don't count on me to stay all day long behind a computer screen.

I play sports (soccer, tennis, basketball) and can't stay at home for long. I need to see the world and discover new things.

I have discovered the Wine and Spirits sector as I used to work for a Champagne company. Great stuff to discover around the wine world. I now work for cosmetics for an international company.

Going to the movies (or the "cinema" as we say in France) is an important thing: I really enjoy the darkness, the sound, the effects.

I'm also quite into TV shows: Californication, Community, Blue Mountain State, HIMYM, Dexter, The Office, Breaking Bad, Kaboul Kitchen...

Finally, I'd say my interests aren't limited to a website box. Let's find out more - aviation, travels, language, comics, history, philosophy...
