About Me

CURRENT MISSION

go back travelling... as soon as I can

ABOUT ME

in a few words, I'm currently a doctor in Intensive Care, living in Paris for now but craving for a change. I love travelling (that's original heh ?) so much that I take several months pauses from time to time to go abroad, discover the new country I've been dreaming of and once I find a place and people there that I love, I stay in it and get to live a more local life.

PHILOSOPHY

- we'll sleep when we're dead (famous french saying)
- beer is not alcohol (our flatmates motto)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I used to couchsurf some years ago, before being very busy with work... and finally some months ago I decided it was a pity not to participate anymore to this project, so here I am again, both hosting and surfing !

Interests

I love salsa dancing... I really discovered it in Cali in Colombia and stayed there for months learning it.. Now I'm looking for places to dance in every new city I go to :)
I like acting as well (in an theater group in Paris), I like good wine and italian food, Harry Potter, learning languages, kids, tango... and so much more !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

climbing on a 6000 m mountain,
being hugged by an elephant,
Macchu Picchu at sunrise,
queuing at 1 am with 2000 people to have the last Harry Potter book in my hands ...

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm really fond of cooking and learning new languages, at the moment I'm studying Italian and Hebrew so you're very welcome to help me practice either of them !
