CURRENT MISSION

write screenplays (for the moment), work as an assistant director (hope to find something soon), then be a director of cinema (my dream for the future:)

ABOUT ME

I am a french guy (sorry in advance for my english:), 30 years old, passionate by cinema, and I live alone in an apartment in Paris since 6 years. I finished my studies at the university Paris 7, in cinema's studies. I am interested in all arts in general, and curious to discover others activities (especially science, I used to work in ecology before). I try to do a lot of sport between movies. I love (like everybody, it's not very original) meeting and listening people from different countries, to learn about the cultures, so I am open to travel and also to welcome and share what i can...

PHILOSOPHY

"Everything that doesn't kill you make you stronger" (Nietzsche)
"Love one another" (Jesus Christ)
"If you fill your heart with love, there will be no more space for fear and anger"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'll be glad to help people that are visiting Paris by hosting them and showing them good places, touristic ones but also less known ones, nice and cheap restaurants, beautiful strolls, and places to partying during the night.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I registered a few years ago and I hosted many people: from poland, united states, mexico, greece, russia...and all over the world. Sometimes for emergency, for a few days, and sometimes for weeks, it's very fun, interesting, and I always want to make news experiences again. I had always good experiences so far, and I am sure I will have many many more.
I've been also to others couch surfing events in Paris.
