About Me

ABOUT ME

Currently, I'm living in Toronro (Canada), but I'm from Strasbourg (France). I work as a graphic designer. Also, I am passionate about photography, art, food and gym. I'm always keen to meet new people, so don't hesitate to write me ! (but don't be creepy, I'm not looking for a boyfriend, thanks).

Distinctive feature : I am vegetarian

PHILOSOPHY

Live and move while we are young, in good health and powerful!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing, because I would like to meet people for share customs and ideas.

Interests

I love food, specially Indian food. I cook vegetarian and vegan food. I'm interested by nutrition which helps me to have a good condition for my workouts. I'm training and challenging myself 5 times a week every morning.

As a french, I'm a big fan of cheese, wine and bread :D

I like photography, specially with long exposure time. I like to see ghost and milk on my picture : https://500px.com/milligraphic

Finally, I like cultural things : art, graphic design, ballet, cinema, architecture... It's crazy how people can be so creative!

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to lots of types of music : hardcore, hip-hop, rockabilly, blues, jazz, reggae, electro...
I like Stanley Kubrick's movies! Otherwise, I like movies that are unconventional and experimental such as "Aux yeux de tous", "Perfect sense" or "Inception".
Also, I like documentaries (at the cinema and on television).
Concerning books, I read mainly magazines about world news, on graphic, arts and on world discovery.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done one year (WHV) in Australia. At the beginning I didn't speak any English! . The day before I took the plane, I watched a show of Adam Hills, an Australian comic, and I thought : Damn! What am I doing? I will never succeed and speak english! And after one year, I did! After that, when I went back to France, I was unemployed for one year and half... It was terrible! Then, I moved to Canada (Montreal) and thought: I will never find a job in my domain anymore! One week after, I found a job! My next mission: find a job in Toronto!

Teach, Learn, Share

I like learn new cultures. I always keep something from my travels (eat a big breakfast with no sugar like in Germany, live with the sun like in Australia...).
I want to share the best things from France (wine, cheese, architecture, artists...)
