Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started couch surfing few years ago when I was an exchange student in the USA. And every time, I had a great time. My hosts were always nice and I was surprised to see how people can be helpful, I did not expect that much. It also allowed me to stay in amazing places, that I would have never experienced if did not have use couch surfing. Since then, I keep traveling this way and can't wait to have my own place to be able to host people.

For this specific trip to New Zealand, as I am going on my home, I would love to meet local people to live a true experience (and not just hang out with all the travelers). NZ amazed me and I am willing to learn everything you can share with me about it.

Interests

I love travelling and I would like to travel all around the world. I began with Portugal, Spain, England, Italy, Canada, Japan, Marrocco, Indonesia, Taiwan, etc ..

I love discovering new cultures, new people, new landscapes. I like backpacking because I think you can discover so much more if you do it walking, sharing with other people.

I also love sports especially surfing and other water sports ( sailing, ...), but also cooking.As a good French, I am enjoying a good wine with great food! ;)
