About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To marvel at the planet sailing around the world.

ABOUT ME

I discovered Couch-Surfing as I was travelling in Canada and simply fell in love with the community.

I like to play sports, being outside, to share ideas with people, cook and eat good food.

I'm an easy going, full of energy always up for a good laugh.

Hard to tell more about me.
I guess you'll have to meet me in person if you want to discover me and make your own idea. ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life and youth

Treat people like you would like them to treat you

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Try to give a chance to you guys to come to enjoy your vacations and life in Roatan on a sailboat.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Awesome. I've made only friends!
The best way to meet new people.
Discovering new ways of life and ideas teaches tolerance.

Interests

I love to play sports: Sailing, Scuba Diving, dancing (Salsa), boxing, wake-boarding, rock climbing, tennis, Ice skating, biking, skiing, hiking, motorbike...
I like anything that makes me feel alive; adventure, exploring.
More intellectually I'm interested in History, Geography, Philosophy, Geopolitics, Astronomy and understanding Nature.
Of course, I love to travel, being in the middle of nowhere, feeling the fresh air of the mountains, discover new cultures, make new friends and try to understand people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I couldn't live without music. Also, I like a whole bunch of different kinds and groups but my favourites are:
Reggae-dub, Salsa, house, metal, heavy metal, jungle, classical music, Spanish, Indian, Arabian music ...
I'm always open to discover what you like!

I usually read historical novels or thrillers and philosophy.

As regards movies, I like those who teach you something, those who let you think about it after you saw it. One of my favourites is "la Cité de Dieu", a Brazilian movie (Cidade de Deus)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The barbecue on the beach of Toronto island in front of the city at night was amazing!
Diving with a whale shark.

Teach, Learn, Share

As my past job was related to computers, I'm quite keen on it. I will enjoy to help people if they need assistance.
I'll also be able to teach some French or English.
And of course, I can teach you how to sail.
As far as I'm concerned, I'd like to develop my creativity in any field. I am learning how to play Harmonica since a few month and would appreciate some tips.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my time with you, some good meals, stories, laughs...
