I work as a software developer - currently involved in projects connected to machine learning. :)
Recently moved to the UK with a Global Talent Visa.
I'm a purely logical person tending to perfectionism (to a certain extent, I hope).
I value honesty, kindness, the ability to think and a sense of humour.
I like making contacts and learning new things.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I enjoy travelling. And it is not about putting a tick in front of the country name on your list. It's about getting impressions and learning culture through interaction with those who belong to this particular culture.
I'm also an extrovert. So it's essential for me to share my impressions with somebody. Or sometimes just to keep silent! :)

Maybe the One is still ahead ;)
Couple of years ago made the Annapurna circuit on my own (sometimes synced with my friends and met many new friends on the trip).

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

Anything where my optimization skill can be applied to.
I am open to discussions of all sorts.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Intelligent chat on a topic of both parties preference served with some presents from my city.
I will definitely tell you about a world of intellectual games I belong to. And, who knows, maybe involve you into this kind of hobby!

PS If you wish something in specific - just ask (once we were surprised by a foreigner who got keen on our local black bread).
