Hi everybody,

My name is Laurent, i discovered couchsurfing during my road trip around the world, backpacker way. My goals are meet people, share and learn.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm still on Couchsurfing because I really met very beautiful people and for me it's the very good way to discover a country, share and understand state of mind where we are.

Interests

I'm open minded and curious. I love listen differents kind of music ( Electronic, funk, soul, Jazz, folk, trip hop... ) and practice lot of sports ( football, squash, badminton, running, archery, trekking, slackline (I try... )). I like nature and friendly animal. the simple things in life, instant moment.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to learn cook just 'cause i love to eat.
