Chi sono
Hi! I'm a 25 years old French from the sea side working half of the year in the mountain of the french Alps. The rest of the year I'm travelling and helping people in there construction project.
I was a student in mechanical engineering in the city of Brest until I was 21 and got my degree. After that I dicided not to go further in my study with the idea that I've spend my entire life at school and nothing esle and I needed to see by myself how life is elsewhere in order to have a better understanding of what I would like to do of my life.
This leads us to now. It has been 3 years that I am working as a technician in hotels during the winter (in the french alps), trying to learn the most about how building are built and how I could build one myself. The reste of the year I am travelling. To keep practicing and improving my manual skills while I'm travelling I've been helping people in there house or business to build or repare things in exange of food and accomodation. I've did this all over europe. I realy like it and would love to do the same all over the world before I go back home to build my own house.
Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing
I love that principle which is the one that bring people together, sharing traveling experiences, knowledge of the country/city, hobbies, food recepies and anything else. I am convinced that the best way to integrate a place, understand how the life is there and how the people live together is to live here for long time. But for different reason it's not always possible, then meet a resident in his place is the best way to get an overview of how you could live there.
Interessi
Love sports. I was doing handball, basketball ... Now I'm more on skiing hiking and diving.
I am interested by the music, cinema and books (as allmost everyone). I used to play a lot to video games as well but that is a thing that I don't have the time to do anymore, sadly, (just some times when I stop moving) but its part of me, what a good time spended on this computer. :)
I opened myself on everything that people can bring to me, recently I discovered the tea, American litterature and realised that I'm a quite good dancer.

Musica, film e libri
I'm listening many different kind of music, it is mostly per phase but the old blues come over most of the time to lead me to jazz and US rap. Everything come from blues. But I also love techno music and psychedelic rock which are quite different. Anyway I am listing to music all the time litterally.
My favorite movies are the one from time trilogy from Christopher Nolan, I mean "Memento", "Inseption" and "Interstelar" which are in my opinion a masterpiece of cinema, "American history X" is one of my favorite movie too. Finally I have to say that the Hayao Miyazaki's cartoon universe still facinate me from my young years(Princess Mononoke, My Neighbor Totoro, Howl's Moving Castle ... for the people who don't know Miyazaki).
About the series I watch many of them but I particulary liked "the wire", "true detectives" and the well known "game of thrones", "breaking bad" and "the walking dead".
Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto
Living without smartphone until 07/07/2015
Insegna, impara, condividi
Now that I speak a pretty good English (not very academical). I'd like to go further about the other cultures and other way to think and live in order to found my way to live.
I think that the best way to learn is to teach or just share what you've learned. Explaning things are either good for the one listing and the one speaking.
Teaching is all an art that I would love to develop.
Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa
My proper short experience. As I'm interested in everything I can discuss on many subject but of course I know some better than other. Like something about the base of science, the mechanical engineering, music, cinema and construction.
