About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling, learning about the others and their culture.

I'm 27 years old right now, few years ago I was helicopter pilot in the army and I quit. Now with my girlfriend I dedicate my time to travel.
Before that, I was in business school but I didn't really like it, It was mostly to do something and to kill time :)

Instead of my studies, I like to travel far away as you understood, doing something else than what I do everyday, with everyday new projects in mind!
I'm interested in many things, especially every other cultures, sports and art.
I'm also fond of music and everything around, like gigs, festivals and sometimes tring to play music myself.

One thing you need to know about me: I'm very curious, open minded with a sense of humor (that not everybody anderstand).

PHILOSOPHY

I wont say yolo but it quit fit me well, I think our life is too short not to do watever we'd like to.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before coming in Birmingham I was looking for a flat on internet and friends told me about couchsurfing. Finaly it was far much beter to meet people and learn about the place with couchsurfers!. Today I'm still in contact with my host and it allowed me to meet other couch surfers!
I've also hosted Americans last year in my flat in Nantes for days or weeks. It has been a very nice expérience of fun!

Interests

I'm fond of aviation, water sports like windsurfing, kitesurfing, surfing, general sailling but I also love music (I play drum) gigs. I'm really curious and love to learn and do something new everyday.
I also love mecanics and everything which goes on.
In the meantime, I also enjoy photographie, cinemas, art in a more general way.
But one my favourite is to discover a new world, other cultures and alternatives of way of life!
