CURRENT MISSION

Back in France after 10 years living in China. Now time to explore Europe by bike/train. No more planes.

ABOUT ME

Idealist, I want everything to work perfectly and everyone to have a good time. I try to adapt to my environment and fit.

I am french, french people are said all over the world to be arrogant, so I may have a little bit of that deep inside. Still, I strive to be very approachable and I smile a lot.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Used to host a lot in my 20s, now travelling more and hoping to make opportunities to meet people on the road.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was living in a few flats with couchsurfer enthusiasts, so I already had the chance to welcome people that way. Some I became friend with too.
I also like to help people who move in or visit a place i know, and do it quite often when my friends recommend me and put me in touch with theirs.

Interests

Outdoors living, permaculture, self-sustainable lifestyle, fermentation.

Cinema...I love to hear or talk about it, watch it etc. even tho sometimes I may not get it (ie: Citizen Kayne was the greatest disappointment ever, Lynch leaves me puzzled and confused...).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once, I hate a 1kg burger in 9min56sec ... don't laugh, it got me my picture on a wall of fame in the restaurant!
Also that time I cruised the mountains of western China living in a jeep for a year. From Yunnan to Xinjiang, through the Tibetan plateau and Qinghai it was the best time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I always enjoy giving some tips on photography, can turn someone with good understanding of a computer into a photoshop wizard.
I can teach you how to pick up a girl/boy in french
I have this thing for cooking, mixing a bunch of routines I know and a sparkle of improvisation with what I have at hand...it makes for unpredictable results but it's great fun, love to cook with cooking enthusiasts or show the instant-noodles addicts a good meal.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good stories and good vibes. Also can help with photography.
