About Me

ABOUT ME

I am born in St-Etienne but grew up in French Guyana, at the east of Brazil. My parent then moved to Rome where I did my middle school. I came back to France for my studies and I now have my engineer degree. I've just started a new job in Karlsruhe in Germany.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like travelling a lot and up to now I've always had the chance to have friends or familly to host me.
I've been living in French Guyana, Italie, Switzerland, Estonia and now in Germany.
I've also visited Sicily, Brussels, Finland, St. Peterburg, Prague, Warszawa, Stockholm, Amsterdam, Istanbul, travel on to the artic circle in Finland, walked on the path of Compostela to spain, did some canoying in Marocco.
I've also did road trips in Brasil, Surinam and New-Zealand.
All this to say that the best trip which I made were not the most exotic neither the farther, but the ones where I could meet people.
I know my brother used a lot couchsurfing and I parcipitated in the new year event in Amsterdam and I really think that couchsurfing is a good way to meet people and discover the other culture's real way of life (not only the tourist facade)

Interests

I like travelling (I've already live in French Guyana, Italy, Estonian and Switzerland)
I'am open-minded and very happy to share new experience.
My mother think food was a great to learn about a culture and, through her great experience of cooking, she transmitted ot my sibling and I the taste of good reciepe from around the world.
I am keen on sport, especially running (1st marathon planned in August 2018 in Iceland) but also circus and climbing. I've try a lot of other sport and I'll be glad to discover some other.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't really have one type of the music, movies or books. I uselly listen the advice of my friend and I've very keen new thing thank to them.
I rather go to music festival than listen music alone by myself.
I also like to listen to audiobook when I go running, mostly thrillers.
I didn't that much time to watch movies or series recently but did follow Westworld and Game of throne but the one I liked more was the english serie Black Mirror.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Drive a 37h non-stop to visit friend in Estonia.

Teach, Learn, Share

***I can share a piece of my live, past, present and future:
-> I can tell you about my previous travels and experiences and maybe stir up youre curiosity for knew destinations
-> I show you the way I live make you discover the place where I stay. Often, when I show around my place, I discover a lot of thing myself.
-> Share my plans and upcomming travels, and have your opinion about it.

***I want to learn more about you:
-> Your travel destination and your experiences, the people you've already met.
-> Your present way of living, your culture and see by myself that the cliché I was told about are false.
-> Your plans and future destinations, why such destinations.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As we are all gourmand in the familly and like tasting new food, our tradition to always bring some locals products from region or trips.
I would be very to make you discover my specialities, because an empty stomach seldom the best way to start relation... :)
