About Me

Very curious, I'm always happy to meet new people and new cultures.
I think this life is too short to learn everything I want and to travel and live all around the world. So I'm trying to make every day count :-).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best way to discover a new culture and country is to meet the people there and to live with them. I can't stand to travel in a bubble of tourism. I want to mingle with the population and I think couchsurfing is a wonderful way to meet new people eager to share their culture and way of life !

Interests

I have many interests...
I like dancing (rock'n'roll, a bit of salsa), reading, learn new things.
I have a motorcycle but I enjoy spending a lot of time in the nature, hiking, climbing...
I'm quite good with devil stick and trying to learn ball and bolas juggling.
I like spending the night with friends around a good bottle of wine with a guitar and good vibes. And I like to go dancing in festivals or concerts...
And many other things !
