About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Eat my way around the world and collect stamps on my passeport

ABOUT ME

I started backpacking on my own around the world in april 2009... and so far this trip that was supposed to be only 6 months long lasted 7 years !! I caught the travel bug, and now I just can't stop... Kinda settled down now but still hit the road whenever I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't expect anything but hope for the best.
Go with the flow...
And if you don't have the time, take it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Spreading the word about CS as MUCH as I can!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed in Australia, India, Malaysia, Thailand, England, Tanzania, Jordan, Israel, Turkey... Always a great experience! Now I wish I started earlier...
LOVE it!

And btw I read VERY carefully the profile and reviews of my potential hosts as I'd rather not surf than being hosted by someone I wouldn't get along with...
