About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to hug a panda and to meet an Inuit before I die

ABOUT ME

I'm a French guy discovering Middle-East. I try to travel as much as I can, but I guess life is a journey in itself. If I'll have to sum up my life, I would say it's firstly encounters, people who give a hand at the best moment... I guess chance and encounters build a destiny.

PHILOSOPHY

There is no hazard neither casualties, there are only chances to take. I do not know if it means anything, but it's the first thought I had. Maybe I should write a book about that ?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Obviously, I'm also looking forward to travel everywhere in the world, but mostly in Lebanon, Iran, Jordan and Azerbaidjan for the next few months !
I was not really stable lately so I could not host anyone ! But I did it by the past and it was really nice !

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I used couch surfing with my lady before, to travel into Turkey, Greece and Bulgaria. Each experience was delightful. All I want is to share a good moment, then good memories with a native, go out and discover the local food and the local mood ! Open to every new experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

The best thing I watch, listen to or read are those people make me discover.
But i just finished reading "l'usage du monde" (how to use the world) by Nicolas Bouvier and i have to say that the story of this young guy going from Belgrade to India, passing by Albania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan in the mid 1950's is a true source of inspiration !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I killed a shark with bare hands just after the ship I was on sinked because of a fire, and then I had to swim for 120km to reach California.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to cook Menemen, and if you come to my flat, please teach me how to cook one of your local dish !
