About Me

Current mission :

I'm writing down my second album music this year.

About me?

My father is dedicated educator, and my mother is ecologic farmer throughout an association. I'm an agnostic (I don't have any religion so far ;) ), but open to discussions about religions. I don't drink or smoke, but it doesn't bother me. I play guitar and sing since 2009. I like to hang out and jam with others musiciens. Learning accordeon also.

I also dance couple dances: salsa (cubana and l.a.), Mazurka, Waltz (most of the European folk dances, really), Rock, forro and a bit of tango. Loving it 😀

Philosophy:

We can always learn from someone

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

How I participate in Couchsurfing?

I have been lucky enough for traveling around quite a bit, mostly with not much money. I have been learning so much and so many people has been kind enough for sharing their time and place with me (most of them were not CS users but anyway).

I did host over 30 people in my flat the last 5 years, I really enjoy having guest : it always feels like traveling.

Anyway, just ask, if I can host you or be useful in any way, I'll do it. Don't really care about what is written on your page 😉

Couchsurfing experience :

I had host many people in Grenoble and Toulouse (France), and in wroclaw (poland). I've been speaking with a perfect stranger near by Krakow almost all night long! Very deep conversation! Thanks to CS for that 😁

Interests

Music, theater, dance (salsa, batchata, tango, valse, forró and rock) watching over children (animation).

I love hiking, I've done a lot of trek on my own, with my family or with friends. I'm not afraid of hichhiking (i actually love it) and i basically always found more energy for learning new things :).

I've traveling in Ireland on my own when I was quite young during two months without phone or internet with 10 euros per day. An awesome travel ;)
