Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
If you want to discover a country, you have to drink it, taste it, and sing it...
ABOUT ME
About me... I've been a sailor since 2007, so I a used to meet a lot of different people and culture when I'm working. It made me open minded, always ready to discover a new way of life.
The only one thing I have trouble to deal with is hypocrisy. Except that, I can deal with every kind of behaviour I meet ;)
PHILOSOPHY
Travel broadens the mind...What can I say more ?
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
For now, I can only do surfing, because I don't have a flat yet. But if you come to Paris ( I wish you to do so, Paris is awesome ), let me know, I'll have pleasure to show you some sides of Paris you wouldn't have seen by reading your guidebook
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have just created my account, so I hope it will be a good experience to meet people !
Interests
Travel isn't an interest for me, it's my way of life, my philosophy...So about my hobbies ;)
I have some hobbies, but the biggest is by far horse riding. I started when I was 4, and I'm still practicing when I can, and every time I travel.
I also dive, because I have a passion for sea and sealife. Being a sailor made me dive in a lot of different places, to see sharks, whales, wreck, and of course, coral reefs.
And hiking is the best way for me to unwind, after a hard week. You can leave for 2 hours, or 2 days, in a forest or in desert. It's very simple, you juste have to walk ;) and very good for healt also
