About Me

After 5 years of studies in Paris, London and NY, I found a job in an e-business company. I quit my life in Paris in August 2015 to start a world road trip !
After 15 months of travel and a self discovery journey I am back in Paris.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really want to discover the world and people and I don't find a better and cool way than using couchsurfing.
I do believe that travelling is more about people than landscapes.
