About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy my life. Be happy. Smile to everybody.

ABOUT ME

I'm a happy guy who enjoy meeting new people, driking beers, having tapas and sharing stories.
Nothing better than stay at someone's home to enjoy a place entirely.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to avoid the stress. Help people everytime you can and don't hesitate to listen to them. You can learn something from anyone you meet.
Smile, be happy, don't worry about insignificant problems (most of them) and live your life in a thrifty way. You may invest either in your living room or in your trips. You decide.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted more than I surfed. But I every time I've been in touch with CS community it was absolutly amazing.
In my point of view a city becomes completely different when you are with locals.
In addition, CSers are always interesting people.
I'm trying to tell my great experiences to everyone I know to get a big community!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I host some people. All of them were amazing.
I surfed just 2 times but I'm looking forward to do it again and enjoy the best way to travel.

Interests

I'm a sports man. I play roller hockey, climbing, canyoning,... I like to share a red wine enjoying a nice conversation, go out to take some tapas, get to know different cultures, go on party with amusing friends, cook for the others (not just to me).
I like too stay at home seeying some alternative films, listening music talking with my flatmates, or just seeying a tv serie to practise English.
Travel, of course!!!
