About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Looking for a new job - what an exciting plan!

ABOUT ME

I really appreciate more than anything going out and have fun with people outside, whether close friends or open minded people that I meet during parties. I think communicating is the best thing to enjoy our lifetime, sharing ideas, learning from what people tell you, or just having fun!

I'm also a music lover, I really enjoy going to concerts and festivals, discovering new bands, new sounds, new types of music. Generally electronic music, rock from 60's and 70s, jazz, rythm'n'blues, and many more types :o) I'd love to know your experience in that kind of music if you have some.

I also love traveling. When you start doing it, it's pretty hard to stop... It's been more than a year that I'm back from a 14 month trip in Australia and South-East Asia. I'm now back at home for a two year training course. But I still feel this need to grab my backpack and fly away...

One more thing. I'm also a big fan of scuba diving. After my open water level in Britanny, I passed my advanced level in Thailand close to Phi Phi islands.

PHILOSOPHY

Learning something every day to share it with my friends

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By learning from people that travel around the world, and give my experience from what I could learn during my trips

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I discovered CS during a trip in Canada in 2007, and this experience then increased through other trips. I also hosted CSers in France, and I'll do it again when I can get my own place

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A seven-day trip driving my car in Western Australia without any shower. Trust me, that was quite tough (for me and especially my traveler mate).

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to work in IT, but I now study cartography and geomatics at university to obtain a master degree. Hundreds of topics about environment and society that we can talk about!
I also enjoy talking about politics, movies or litterature. I'm usually curious and love sharing and comparing ideas.
Eventually, I enjoy to cook: please give me your best recipe if you'd like to!
