About Me

CURRENT MISSION
I am saving money to buy a van ! This is just the dream to leave for climbing trips. That has basically been my dream for the last few years.

ABOUT ME
These times, I am actually working hard to save money. However, I still love meeting new people and I often attend Couchsurfing events when travelling around.
But even more than meeting people, I love CLIMBING ! I come from Grenoble (France) and I grew up in the mountains. Climbing and mountaineering is what keep me motivated ! I would be very glad to share my passion.

How I participate in Couchsurfing
It really depends on my availability. When I am free, I am very happy to spend time with the couchsurfers I host. I can humbly say that I am the hell of a chef and I will be very happy to fix some delicious french meals !

When I travel, I try to spend as much time as possible with Couchsurfers in order to discover the local culture. And also to have a good excuse do drink pints.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because most of people are worth the detour. And hotels suck.
I don't conceive travelling without meeting locals. Couchsurfing is just the perfect way to meet people !

Locals can show you what no guide books or website will.

Interests

If you enjoy rock climbing or caving, we are gonna be very good friend !

  • socializing
  • rock climbing

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite book : The Name of the Wind, Patrick Rothfuss. With no hesitation. (I mean the trilogy of course, despite the fact that we are still waiting for the third one. Patrick if you read this, please hurry up)
