As you can see it, I'm a French guy from the East of France ! A lovely region that is very nice to do some hikes and with a big history!

For the serious part about me ? I have recently graduated from a master in Advertising ! But the roads call me again... So I embark on a trip to New Zealand to travel and meet people! I have already visited a lot of countries but it's the first time i plan a so long trip, so far from my home and just by myself !

About me and my personality ?
I'm an easy living person who love simple things, to laugh and to share histories, memories and experiences.
I am athletic and love doing sports, I play piano and I am passionate about cinema, art, photography, advertising, history and urbex! So if we meet i can play some piano works (if we have a piano under hand), start some nice talks about art and photography or advice you some good movies to watch ! I can also show you many funny, lovely, poetic or creative ads ! If you are not nice i can kick your ass (experience in combat sports giving me some skills!) but I'm sur you're a lovely and nice person! ;)

I am also an humbly amateur photographer. It will be a pleasur to show you my shots and have your criticisms on them! See your pics if you have some and I would like to speak about techniques or ideas too!
You can find me on instagram if you want ! @apollo.raw

I will be happy to share a discussion, a beer, a hike, a museum, a movie or spend some time on the road with you!
Finally, as a true French guy I will be happy to have some good laughs around a good meal or a good bottle of wine (i can even try to cock some easy french specialities for you!).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A question I like to ask first at new encounters is "what do you like to do in life?" rather than "what do you do in life?". it shows pretty well my philosophy.

I am here to meet authentic people who love to share their stories and culture and to discover how they are and how their countries are!
I want to meet some people like me, who like to meet people to learn new things from them and learn about their experiences!

Left my little comfort and live like the inhabitants of where I am! Share great moments, some good laughs and some time on the road to make some good memories and new friends!
