About Me

ABOUT ME

The first thing I remember happenned a 1st of april, early in the night, when I told myself "ok, it's fools' day, I'm gonna make a joke to my mum and go out in the world right now". Then there was a big light, I laughed very loudly and I don't remember much during a few years (some say it's the shock).
All I know is that I wanted to do everything on my own.
Then a strange businessman (not exactly the kind I would trust) told me with a smile "hey dude, you know all that is a limited offer" and I realised it and decided not to change anything to my way of life.
Since then, I just keep testing, tasting, trying and sharing all I can (Just one thing, stopping a car with yourself is not that great for those who would also be curious about that), having fun and being fed by curiosity.
I studied all I could during the days and erased all that was not that important partying during the nights for too many years to remember.
And I wanna change the world (in a good way).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Want to meet cool people, surf during my trips and host when I'm back in Paris.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I arrived in the biggest city in the world with no plan, I had just sent an email to a friend's acquaintance, who had never heard about me. She was waiting for me at the station (!) offered me to sleep at her place during more than a week (!!!), made me visit the city in the mean time. We talked a lot, laughed all the time and she is now a really good friend.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen two hedgehogs having sex (no joke)
Tried to stop a car with my body when I was 6
I actually believed and was convinced I had really been travelling through space in a disneyland attraction (I was young ok?!)
I have been a woodcutter in the Japanese mountains
Shared a cigar with a Cuban official talking about the revolution
Had an incredible conversation about ancient egypt with a convict
Fell in love
Laughed wildly in front of a wonderful landscape for no other reason than that it was incredibly beautiful
Passed friends (who had nothing to do there, frankly) when I was lost without money by night with my plane in few hours in a 40 million inhabitant city named Tokyo (you have to believe)
