Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

After almost 4 years of travels, I am back to France. I would be pleased to meet people in my hometown or wherever I might be.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First time, I was hosted twice during a trip in the South of France, in Marseille. I really enjoyed this experience, it made me feel like hosting travellers myself.
Since then, I was hosted a lot during these last years.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A few years ago, I took a train during 3 days to cross the United States from New York to San Francisco. It was amazing!
In January 2014, I managed to hitch a sail boat to cross the Atlantic ocean from Canary Islands to Martinique. It was...unique! ;-)
In September/October 2014, I hitchhiked all along the Trans Canada Highway, which is almost 8000 thousands kms long.
