Overview
About Me
I'm a young twenty-one years old student who leave my country for a year to discover Australia.
Dynamic and curious, I practice many sports.
I love to laugh, be happy, but my dad primarily learned to be brave and hardworking in order to get what I want.
Open-minded, I love going to the people to meet new people.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on CouchSurfing because this site is for me a set of values that I like: Generosity, openness, altruism. These are strong values that my parents, who are Catholic, wanted to charge me when I was young. Although not practicing, I have tremendous respect for these values.
I would add that I also had the opportunity durings my hike to be hosted for free at strangers who generously opened their doors to me. These early experiences profoundly affected me and I was always told it would be magic if every-body was able to accommodate are coming as well.

Music, Movies, and Books
I listen to a lot of music. I was fortunate that my grandmother makes me discover classical music and I also played saxophone as a kid.
Among my favorite artists I mention Vivaldi, Mozart, Bethoveen, Daft Punk, Dire Straits, Eddie Cochran, Eminem, Hans Zimmer, Jake Bugg, Kendrick Lamar, Simom & Garfunkel, Muse, Moby, The Who, The Doors, The Avener... Many different music kinds, ahah.
I also watch a lot of movies and series. My favorite movie is Forest Gump! For this film together all the ingredients that I like: humor, action, beautiful framing, a story (very) touching, and yet excellent social and cultural criticism.
Despite the different sports I practice I always keep me a little time to keep reading. Because it is a great way to perfect in a language because it developped the imagination but also because I like it. My favorite French author Guy de Maupassant, especially for his new literary that I find well written and very interresting as a psychological point of view. Besides, I read a lot of thrillers and fantastic adventure.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Recently I had the pleasure to climb Mount Grange which is located in the Haute-Savoie in France. I made the climb with my best friend, we went up to 2430m altitude. It was a wonderful experience.
Teach, Learn, Share
What I want to share with people foremost is my joy of living! I want to give people smile, be for them a source of joy. Then I would not claim to teach people but I can however shared with them my education, my lifestyle, manners and customs of my country. And I would be very happy to do sports with my guests.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'd love to share my smile, my joy in life, my respectful attitude, my curiosity!
