Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first couch surfing experience was about 3 years ago. I «couchsurfed» with one of my best friends, andre-yanne. We travelled together in Japan and met great people! A year after we went to California and been host by amazing mates! I haven't had the chance to couchsurf since. But this year (2012), I'm going to cycle across New Zealand and would like to meet new friends through couchsurfing!
Interests
Travelling! outdoor activities, recently I have discovered scuba diving (so amazing!!), reading french and foreign litterature, contemporary art and danse, listening to Leonard Cohen while I'm driving. And I like to discover new culinary traditions!
