I like controversial topics.
I like people who think critically.
I can't leave without taking some time off to immerse in the nature.
I'm 100 times a better self when I exercise and meditate regularly.
I drink 1,5L of water per day and I pee often.
I love a good discussion about geopolitics, economy or the origins of the Universe.
I'm not religious.
I have to break the rules to understand why I shouldn't break them.
When I see a cliff by the water I have to jump.
I like the weird feeling on the stomach before jumping and I hate it at the same time.
I wish my mind was more silent sometimes.
I'm still looking for a way to make this World a better place.
While I don't find it, I try to help and be nice to everyone I meet along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in the sharing economy. I also hitchhike, share office space and exchange goods!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a 5 day sailing trip in the Caribbean from Colombia to Panama, in a 12m old sailing boat, a local (French actually!) captain, three other travellers and an illegal Colombian emigrant. For two days we saw no land, boat or plane and we passed through more than 50 virgin islands. We also met the Kuna Yala, the Indio's tribe that inhabits some of the islands.
