Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Have fun all around the world !
ABOUT ME
I'm from Toulon , in the south of France (known for the amazing beaches...and the palm trees everywhere ;-).
I lived there until the age of 17, when I moved to Lyon (a bit more in the north...) for studying in an engineering school.
Lyon is a really nice city as well, I have a lot of friends there...we had so much fun together during 4 years !
I went to work in USA with on my friend in summer 2006, this experience was just GREAT ! We were counselors in a camp, we met people from all around the world..I love it !
I worked as well in UK as a programmer (in a company called Schlumberger )during the summer 2007 and this summer again in Oxford,this place is really nice to meet people as well...so many different cultures in the same city is incredible ! (but the weather is really shitty...)
My next "long term" stay in a foreign country is Finland ! I will study in Tampere from September 2008 to February 2009. A lot of people told be about this city and the student life there...I'm prepared have fun :D I'm crazy about snowboarding as well so Finland is the place to be for me...
PHILOSOPHY
Personnal philosiphy....enjoying my life, staying out of troubles...having fun ! :D
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I discovered the CS thanks to my spannishs friends (tony and jesus ;-) that I met in Oxford. This guys were used to go on this website for traveling or taking some people in their house. I really like the idea of couchsurfing, I can travel more and when I'm going somewhere, I can really know how people from this place are living, not just staying in a hostel with other tourists...
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've been first to Portugal in Lisbon and Porto with 2 of my friends from Lyon and then to Poland with my spanish friends.
I've received as well people in my place in Oxford, in Lyon and in Nice.
