About Me

I did my undergrad in electrical engineering in France and I'm currentlty finishing I'm finishing my master's degree at the University of Cambridge, focused into energy issues.
I will be coming back to France (Paris) from September 15 onwards for work !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I plan to travel a bit in the UK and would love to meet new people on the road ! And if I'm able to get a flat big enough in Paris, I would like to welcome people in return :)

Interests

Music ! I'm a volunteer writer for a French website focused on British rock music ! So I like to go to gigs / festivals whenever I can :)

I recently bought a new SLR camera and try to understand how to make nice pictures, willing to take advice for this ;)

And of course some basic stuff such as doing some sport (running & swimming), going out with friends (who said beers ?), travelling around...
