Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Meet people from different countries and get a broader insight of our beautiful world!
ABOUT ME
Born on one side of the Atlantic, brought up on another, I learned alot about living also in other countries, like Thailand (1 year), Mexico (3 years), Brazil (a dozen times), and parts of Africa and Asia. I consider myself more as a global citizen, concerned with our common future, than a restless traveler.
While travelling in another country, foreign to me, it is essential for me to have opportunities to stay a while and exchange with people in order to have a really meaningful experience.
PHILOSOPHY
Be the change you want to see in the world.
Never be desperate.
Enjoy every moment.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I just applied for "verified" status, and I'm waiting for the postcard!
At the moment, I can host one person, or a couple for just a few days, as my living room is also my office. But I do hope to move to a bigger though less central place. Our appartment is about 35 minutes from Paris central by train.
Also, I write about my travelling and professional experience abroad on my blog.
