Hi everyone!

I'm Lucas, I was born and raised in the south west of France but I'm currently living in Sydney, where I moved to work as a financial controller, after spending 2 years in Brussels, 9 months in Lisbon and 7months in Copenhagen.

I like meeting people from everywhere, tasting different food, and discovering different cultures... thats why I'm on Couchsurfing, because lot of peole share the same spirit as mine :-)

I live in Surry Hills with my partner Edwige. Surry Hills is a vibrant neighbourhood in Sydney which offers great cafés, restaurants and pubs. We are in love with our neighbourhood!

I have many different interests, travels of course, but also Boxing / Mixed Martial Arts, geopolitics, tasting some good food, Fintech, cryptocurrencies....

I like learning about different cultures, politics, and also about food, drinks, and local specialities.
