Overview
About Me
Hello people,
I'm a Frenchman trying to make my way through an overseas career.
So far, I've been living in China and in West Africa (Benin and Ivory Coast), plus my original France ; let's say there's plenty of places left to go to !
Currently, I'm in Ivory Coast.
PHILOSOPHY
Never say no to opportunities, especially when you travel.
Don't get lazy and keep learning !
"When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable." - Clifton Fadiman
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I always warn people too late for surfing their couches, so I only surfed a few times via CS, and I loved it.
Due to ridiculous work schedule getting me to be absent on short notice, I can hardly host anyone in my flat though, sadly.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The mighty mounts of the Himalaya in chinese tibetan Yunnan. It goes up to 6740m, and that's quite a sight with the Tibetan flags everywhere.
Teach, Learn, Share
Some insults in Mandarin Chinese if you want. As well as some of their French equivalents.
