Hi! I'm Paul, French, 22
I currently live in Hamburg, where I'm interning as a Community Manager and Translator for a video game company.

I'm a music lover, avid concert-goer, and so far Hamburg has been really great on that particular aspect! If you have plans for a nice gig, hit me up, it would be a great way to meet up and break the ice :)

I studied translation and interpretation in Paris and Barcelona, and had to intern every summer abroad, which got me to discover beautiful countries and meet great people.

I'm always looking for new stuff to discover be it music, gastronomy, events, cultures...

Let's share !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mainly to meet new people and share experiences, but i'm also looking to discover different cities, and from my experience, nothing beats the advice of locals!

Interests

MUSIC, i'm avidly looking for new (and old) bands, gigs, parties... I like literally every genre, so hit me up !

I'm a decent cook, not great, not bad, but one of my passions in life is also Food and gastronomy. I think it tells so much about a person and a culture, it's fascinating to discover a country or a region through local dishes.

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC : Everything. Literally. From metal to jazz, electro, dub, rock, experimental, prog, hip hop... I mostly work in phase. Currently listening to La Dispute, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Igorrr, Arca, FKA Twigs, Liturgy, Deafheaven, Alt-J, The Flashbulb, Trey Frey...

MOVIES : I love animation from around the world, Ghibli, Hosoda, Aardman... and good comic book adaptations like Sin City or Mad Max. Looking Forward to Vice Versa :) I also like movies with a focus on human emotions and good visuals like House of the Flying Daggers or Eternal Sunshine.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Made music using Game Boys
Went across the Atacama Desert in Chile

Teach, Learn, Share

One of my jobs back in France is to give English, Spanish or French lessons, so I can definitely do that with you !

Currently looking for someone to tutor my German, so maybe there can be some synergy here :) (Same goes for Icelandic, Korean or Japanese ^^)
