About Me

I'm a free thinking hitchiker travelling and working ( I'm a baker) around the world since november 2011, I am learning to trust the world over the meetings that punctuate my way. I try to travel slowly, leaving much room for randomness.

I'm passionate about cultural exchanges and very concerned with any ecological issue

I try to meditate from time to time. I don't smoke or take drugs and drink very few but still up for a party anytime!

Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
