About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Re-catching the CS wagon as soon as my internship time will allow me to do so...

ABOUT ME

I was born and grew up for 18 years in this little town in the North of Brittany. Even if the roughness and the originality of my coast made me proud of that place, I must admit, that was somehow difficult to move away for partying or meeting my friends, or doing impressive activities. Besides, you can add the diversity of my origins ... then you understand my gradual moving process since I'm 18 : Rennes, Nantes and ... Montreal! And finally back to Rennes, but all the foreigners in my school and my current foreign flatmates help me going on traveling!

In a few words, fun, discover, music, new technologies (a big step to make for computers) make entire part of my life currently ... you might discover all the details it implies by crossing my way one of these days !!!

PHILOSOPHY

As you don't know how tomorrow is made up with, dare move shout...the only thing you shouldn't do is considering anything as impossible to do!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I help Couch Surfing to remain the best current way to synchronize cultures, as much as it will help me to enrich myself throughout the others.
My means?
_Communicate this concept as much as possible around me
_My couch
_My willing to travel...

Just to mention, some pictures are originally commented in French...feel free to ask for the translation:)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Back from my trip to Venezia, I was both stunt and delighted when the pilot announced us the reason for this 4 hours late departure: a stroke from some french engineers stuck the aircraft on the ground, and he thanked us beforehand for not using the toilets during the flight as nobody would be available to empty it. End of the trip: a taxi driver without GPS who asked us for his way and for the bill we wanted!!!
Lately, I shared my flat with 4 foreign students... the great experience!
The previous one was dogsledding in Montremblant (end of February)...less impressive, sleeping in a car parked in front of the Niagara Falls
Seen, I'd say, seals holding their hand, camillicos (kind of monkeys) hugging...
Update May 08: a free tiger in Rennes as gentle as a baby dog :-)

Teach, Learn, Share

As for pure knowledge: i could share about marketing, cell phones, or any mobility technology...and of course anyone who wants to learn French. Talking about passions : rock, house music, traveling.
I appreciate all kind of subject that makes people vibrate, or in which they believe...so, likely to learn of anybody in this context.
Both to teach and learn: spanish...
