CURRENT MISSION

my best summer is yet to come

ABOUT ME

I'm a new couchsurfer -- heard of it many times and wanted to check it out! Looking forward to meeting new interesting people.

I'm French, I live in London, and I travel quite a bit for work to Africa and the Middle East.

I'm into books but also into people and I still find the time to write and play records in clubs once in a while.

When do we meet?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

DJing in Damascus, back when the city was quiet and beautiful. Eating cured salmon in Stockholm. Trekking in the Simien Mountains of Ethiopia. Doing human rights research in remote villages of Pibor county, South Sudan. Touring the American South in Greyhound buses, and spending Christmas in Charleston, South Carolina. Brunching at a 1930s hotel on Alexandria's waterfront. Getting published!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell you a bit about house music and Sudanese politics and cooking the perfect steak. Can you tell me about jazz?
