CURRENT MISSION

Becoming an engineer and discovering other cultures

ABOUT ME

I am friendly, I like laughing, spending time with my friends, and learning as well since I am currently an engineering student, just a year after the French equivalent of your 'A levels'. Actually, I'm just 18 years old this year and I'm now living in Compiègne, (a hundred kilometres from Paris) where my college is located, whereas my parents are living where I was last year, in Versailles.
I try to be broad-minded, I like discovering other cultures and for instance I have been doing a wwoofing (maybe you know it, the concept is not too far from couch surfing, and I found it awesome) in Ireland for a month.

I'm currently trying to go to London and Brighton with a friend, Philippe, with CS. If you're interested, here is my friend's profile: https://www.couchsurfing.org/people/philippe-nguyen/

PHILOSOPHY

I like laughing a lot so I often try to make the most of every situations to laugh, and sometimes just being irrationnal or illogical, or practicing self-deprecation makes the everyday life funnier : every conversation can lead to laughing when you are with friends, the jokes aren't that good but the atmosphere makes them hilarious =)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At this moment, trying to find people to accomodate me during this summer, someday maybe when I have a job and a place to live, would like to greet couch surfers =)
--> For those of you that wanna discover France : I can't accomodate people, I'm only living in a small student flat with a co-tenant ... Sorry =(

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have never done any trip with CS, so it would be my first experience this summer, however I have done a WWOOFing during last february, which concept is quite close to CS.

Interests

I like practicing sports, basketball, badminton, bike almost every kind of sports but especially team sports... As I said I am an engineering student, so I like physics especially but other science topic interest me as well : on the whole I'm dedicated to my studies but the school I study in enables me to practice sports, therefore, I also spend on average 4 to 6 hours practicing sports (I tried judo, rowing, basketball or others team sports but also sports I can practice in the nature (bike ! =) ).
I am sorry for my english speaking since I am learning it at school, but travelling abroad is a way to improve it as well, but I do believe that learning it is part of discovering people and their culture ! (so please excuse my mistakes =) )
