About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I'm back from a one year world trip. Now... well I stay a bit in Paris, as I have a fun job, but I can't stop thinking about future travel plans ! Next destination : Poland, Ukraine, Belarus !
ABOUT ME
Hi !
After my studies in engineering, I decided with a friend to make a one year round the world trip (https://trailsoflifeproject.wordpress.com/).
Now, I'm back, but a part of me is still on the road. I continue to like improvisation and exploration.
I am 29 years old. This world trip, and now all my new travels, are a way for me to meet people and to discover what happens in the world. I try to stay as much as possible with local people, so I can learn the cultures.
During the trip, we had the aim to see traditions and how it evolves facing development. I continue to explore this subject nowadays.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I use Couchsurfing for trips. It is an extraordinary tool to meet people from other horizons that like to share their culture !
Now that I have recently my own flat, I am able to give back the hospitality !
In France, I go on the CS events to meet new people.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first eCSperience was in Japan. I joined one of Mochan's Wish Club trip through all the country. It was an amazing way to discover another culture ! After that trip, I now use CS everytime when I can !
During the world trip, I used CS to find local peoples who wanted to show us their culture. I'm glad to say that it works in every country I tried !
Interests
I practice aikido and paragliding.
I am interested in outdoors activities.
What I prefer is to explore and discover new places !
In this one year trip, our aim is to live other ways than in occident. We are interested in traditional life styles that are evolving now due to modern influences.
