About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Host FUN people who care about meeting LOCALS while travelling. I am definetely not just an hostel. I could become a tour guide.
Not personalised requests will get not personalised "no".

ABOUT ME

I like to try to understand the world how it works.
Travelling and meeting people are a good way so here I am on couchsurfing since 2007.
My passion and now my occupation is improv commedy that I practise for many years now with the "13 à l'ouest" (West 13, it means also "very crazy") and Impro Studio where I am teaching improv.
Well, usually I am a very talkative person, too much maybe...so I stop there and we would continue the first time we meet :)

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is :
Even if i think that I have understood something, it's only my understanding at this time and it's going to change.
So forget my philosophy...

3 years and half later : It's so true! I guess this thought was an exception...

5 more years later... : Still true, I have found something consistant in my life :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Cause I love people...
I like to share new experiences. If you are group that is nice, because I have enough space and I dont' fell guilty if I let you on your own sometimes.
