My Name's Publio, I am currentmy studying IT-Management in Paris, FR.

I love to travel, especially hitchiking or by bike. I am usually staying with warmshowers people, you can check my profile and my reviews there: https://www.warmshowers.org/user/151785
My instagram is not quite uptodate, but still: https://www.instagram.com/hummingbike/
If you wanna have a funny break in your day, watch my friend Bruno and I going crazy on our bike tour in the US: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRxqevbLQMk (that's the 2nd video out of 6, see the channel for more).

I crossed the US and Canada by bike during Spring 2018 and hitchhiked from Paris to Oslo in January 2016, among other stuff. I love to camp as well.
Biking and hitchhiking are the best in order to meet locals and get to know the best things to do, which how I like to travel.

I am trying to stay as open as possible and not to arrive anywhere with fixed ideas or impressions. Sometimes it's hard to do, though.
Also, I am very sensitive on the environmental topic and feel very concerned about fighting global warming. So I try to reduce my global footprint as much as possible.

Take me out to parties, to Theaters and best restaurants in town, I'll cook for you and entertain you with funny stories from biking over the world.

One last thing: I am clean and respectful of the places I go, counscious of the fact, it is the place younlive in and probably you love. I am non-smoker.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started to hitchhike and to couchsurf first because It fitted into my broke-student-budget. Today I know, I'll keep travelling this way for a looooong time, since its the best way to meet local people, which is, to me, the biggest part of the travel.

Music, Movies, and Books

Pink Floyd and Ost Kjex are two bands I stick to currently. But there is a lot more.
Chicken Run is my favourite movie, it's actually full of energy and great lessons, for kids as well as for adults and I recommand you to rewatch it. ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling by bike through the US and Canada made me live some crazy stuff. I slept in a church and in a fire station, I got hosted by so many different people along the road, and one of our bike got stolen durng the trip... and the police recovered it.

I also hitchhiked once, from Paris to Oslo in the Winter 2016. It was my first time hitchhiking long distances and it was awesome.

More anecdotal, I played frisbee naked on clothing-optionnal "Wreck Beach" in Vancouver BC in May 2018 and it felt awesome.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll be happy to teach/help you repair your bike! :)
I have some good French Cuisine skills with me, and I can teach you french and German.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A meal, for sure. A bottle of wine, some beer, parties and museum, even a bike ride would be nice. I'd be happy to share a bit of your everyday life.
