Overview
About Me
I am active and open person to meet new people and I have an enthusiastic personality to see different cultures.
I love to do sport, for example riding a bike and going to the gym. I am also particularly interested in gastronomy.
I am getting more involved in politics as I am currently working for the Young Greens in France as an activist. As one of my plans, I am planning to create a new found and financial resources to carry out a project for green and sustainable energies.
I will be staying in Australia for more than a year in order to improve my English, do a road trip with my best friend and find some part-time works. It would be a great pleasure for me to meet new people there and hang out so that I could discover the whole continent. :) It would be also appreciated to see the LGBT community as I am a gay friendly person.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love to meet new people and host them when necessary. Couchsurfing gives a great opportunity to get to know more about new people from different countries, and also different stories that I am ready to listen to. When I visit a country, I would like to see the local culture, hidden places and museums, night life.
It is also great for me to share my room, beer, experience with people who would like to visit France or Australia.
Interests
