Overview
About Me
I'm a 23 years old french student. After studying in the beautiful city of Annecy and then in the middle of Sweden for a year, I study now climatology in Lyon and I'll be in Copenhagen from May to end of August 2019 for an internship where I'll study snowfalls on Greenland.
I like to practice all types of sport (running, hiking, rowing, swimming, riding, skiing... ), sport it essential for me and I would love to discover others sports!
I also play violin at the Conservatory of Annecy, so I'm a busy man between sport, music and study. But I prefer to have a busy life full of experiences than a empty life. However it doesn't mean that I don't take time to enjoy life with friends! We have to find the just middle ;)
To present my personality you have to know that I'm very respectful and honest, it is something really important to me. And I like to cook, to talk, I'm really open-minded and curious to discover new things.
I have the positive attitude I guess. As Mark Twain said : "There isn't time -- so brief is life -- for bickerings, apologies, heartburnings, callings to account. there is only time for loving -- ; but an instant, so to speak, for that." , so enjoy life ! ;)
Please, if you send me a request to stay with me, insert a music which you want to share with me or to introduce to me. It is in order to know if surfers read my profile (and I love to discover new music ;)). If yes you will be more credible for sure :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I discover Couchsurfing during a travel in a carsharing, the girl who was presenting it to me travelled and hosted a lot. I was just "WOUAHH!!..." I didn't know that a so wonderful website exists, the same day I join the CS community :)
Now I had few amazing experiences as a host and a surfer, so I'm looking forward to have new ones, discover people, cultures, philosophies, landscapes ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I spend 6 weeks hiking through wild landscapes of Scandinavia, alone for 4 weeks. Overall I did 700km with +27000 meters. The 2 first weeks I was in complete autonomy, I had my food, tent, sleeping bag, book, maps etc... everything for the 2 first weeks. And I didn't see a human for 5 days in a row. It was an amazing experience of being fully immersed in the nature!
