Overview
About Me
As a society, we all travel the globe for some reasons. To feel alive, to escape from the routine or to immerse into a culture so unlike our own, we find new understanding and meaning in this world.
At some point, I am always going back to my roots, I revisit memories and I value things around me.
Once again, I left my beloved French Alps, my beloved Mountains, my beloved Family and Friends, to explore, to grow, to understand and to learn as much as I can.
To me, life is about taking delight in simple things as meeting friends all over the world, sharing a drink/meal, feeling the sun, the rain, the snow, swimming in beautiful spots, enjoy being next to the fire place when snowing outside, a good day skiing or hiking and so on. I really love to be outdoor!
I love meeting people, sharing our stories, being united, and discovering countries, cultures and local tips around here.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on couchsurfing because I think this is the best way to meet locals and discover the area, to be at home even if I'll be billion miles away from it.
I don't want to be alone in my room with my lonely planet guide and plan what I'll do tomorrow (even if I'll be in this situation once or twice yeh).
I want to know who's living on the same planet as me 👋🏼
I am now an active surfer but will definitely be a dedicated host once back home.
And I truly hope to offer the amazing hosts I had the same favor.

Music, Movies, and Books
🎶 Roots/Reggae/Dub Music, Folk, Jazz/Blues and Rock.
Basically everything that still has a real message and not just "sounds".
Most of my favourite artists passed away, I guess it's the reason why I can't find myself in today's music industry.
📽 French Cinema (comedy-drama), Series (Dexter, Peaky Blinders, Narcos, Breaking Bad, Black Mirror, Orange is the New Black, Las Chicas del Cable), Documentary
📚 Self-help books / Philosophy books / Travel books / Biography / Thrillers
I do believe something magical can happen when you read a good book.

Teach, Learn, Share
EACH ONE TEACH ONE
EACH ONE REACH ONE
I trust we all have something to TEACH and undoubtedly all have something to LEARN.
And it only happens when we SHARE together.
What I Can Share with Hosts
As a surfer :
Good and positive vibration !!
With simple things as a good meal (I love cooking), a good night out, good conversation.
And I'm happy to help with anything !
As a host :
Well, obviously a place to stay and local tips.
I can provide ski/snowboard gear and improvise myself as a ski/snowboard instructor. I can show you my favorites hikes, with awesome viewpoints. I can share the wonderful nature that surronds us and show you how we enjoy it.
I would love to introduce you to my mountain life ! Do not worry, we truly know how to enjoy nightlife as well !
