About Me

Hi everyone!
I'm Nicolas and I live in the center of Lausanne with two flatmates who I love like brothers. I just finished my studies in high school and I still don't know what I want to do of my life. I love music and I practice the guitar every day since I'm 11 in order to share music with people around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really don't know what I want to do as a job. The only thing I know about me is that I want to meet a lot of people, personalities, cultures, food and all that can make me become as open minded as possible ! We have a short life compared to the history of the earth. Unfortunately, humans are destructing the nature more than saving it; and my goal is to travel a lot and get a lot of knowledge about diversities that make our World as beautiful as we see it everyday. Each country and each human have their own part of particularity and I think that our short life is made to make us become conscient that life is not only staying on a place to make money for companies.

Interests

All kind of music! I'm open in every types and I'm looking forward to discovering new artists from you ! I play the guitar and I'd like jamming with a lot of people ! I also like visual arts like watching films, paintings or visiting museums.
I love the nature, I like having a walk on the forest, climbing mountains or speaking to everyone in the street (yes, sometimes people are afraid, particularly in Switzerland, but I also meet beautiful minds). I always smile because life is so much beautiful when happiness is transmitted around.
I like cycling, skateboarding and running. I'm the kind of person you can laugh a lot but also have serious conversations with. I never stop enjoying life every day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This amazing thing I'm still doing is to live fully everyday of my life since I stopped studying.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Musical experiences, good moments of talking around a cup of tea or traditional food I cook. I can bring you to visit the town or the country. By winter we can go skiing or to the ice rink. By summer we can go to the lake, having a walk or having good times in my beautiful city. We can also do the party in every season, I can bring you to my friend and we can share music, films or simply our own passions. I like discovering new things.
