I'm a french guy working as a Lifeguard Team Manager from april to november in a resort on the french west coast, and travelling the rest of the year.
I was born and I grew up in Montpellier, south of France. I went to Sports University, then I had my Swimming Teacher degree in 2012. I quickly found a job, and I love it!
I have always lived in this city until I started travelling and working on the west coast.
I'd love to make you appreciate my hometown, even though I'm probably not the best tourist guide here!

Wherever you are, wherever you go, take care, be happy, and I'm looking forward to share a good moment with you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I always use all kind of accomodation when I travel : I sometimes go with my camper, otherwise I stay in hostels, BnB, couchsurfing...
Every stay is an experience and improves the trip!

Interests

I love the way I live my life, I think I found the right balance. I really enjoy my job, I'm super happy with it. Doing this for half year and then be able to discover the world the other half is just perfect.
I'm also a lot into sports, such as surfing, mountain biking, hicking, cliff jumping...
I like to go on motorbike trips, or go around with my campervan.
Meeting new people is always so exciting. Getting to know each other, share happiness, travel experiences and of course a nice and cold beer 😊
In every countries I go, I edit a short video of my adventures and post it on YouTube. It's my way of sharing my travel experiences :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I experienced a lightning in the ocean while I was surfing in Indonesia, really close impact from me and my friend. Scariest but craziest moment ever!!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I could show you my travel videos on Youtube, tell you about all the little tricks I've learned from my trips, teach you the basics words in french if you need to (basically how to say hello and order a beer), and I would like to hear all about your life and travels! 😊
