About Me

I'm an engineering student as well as a computer science auto-entrepreneur. You thought programming passionates were fat boys hidden in their mama's basement? Let me prove you wrong ! I take developping part-time jobs to earn money to enjoy my greatest passion (aside from drawing ), travelling. I'm always curious about other country's traditions, food, way of thinking... Even if I don't speak a language, nevermind with some drawing and gesture we can always communicate ;)

My favourite saying: "Quand on veut, on peut" (Will enables you to do anything) !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What interests me in travelling is not only discover the country, but also its people. I did some volunteer work in Cambodia with the NGO Caritas where I lived with the farmer's family, sharing their daily lives and hearing about their stories, and I loved that experience.

Interests

Painting and drawing
Cooking
Foreign cultures, especially in Asia : I cannot help myself trying to chitchat everytime I hear someone speaking chinese.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really like Fantasy books, and my favorite type of movies is the psychological ones, like Fight Club, Butterfly Effet, or Forrest Gump.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Make a 60-page comic in my second year of high school

Teach, Learn, Share

I would gladly tech people about French culture, and especially French cooking (I'm a big fan of learning new recipes and I really enjoy cooking elaborate dishes ;) ). You HAVE to taste our famous desserts: Tarte tatin and Cannelés if you have some Rhum !

What I Can Share with Hosts

My cooking, my sense of humour, my skills in programming if you have computer problems, my drawing skills if you have always wanted to draw a caricature of some infuriating colleague
