Hello! I'm Nicolas, from France 👋🏽

I left Paris to live and work in Santiago for some time.

I grew up in France, in the country side, and have lived in different regions of France and abroad: in Rhode Island in the US, in Seoul, Lima and Madrid ; for work and studies. Now Santiago.

I love concerts, photography, dancing, hiking, running

being in the ocean makes me feel free

I believe in karma, and that showing gratitude and being honest are essentials qualities

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

meeting local buddies who have common interests with you is really the best way to get to know a place and its culture.

in the past, i got the chance to meet incredible people around the world; i want to keep doing just that!

What I Can Share with Hosts
