Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just love to meet new people, make unexpected new friends, share life experiences/hobbies/trip memories/parties/sips of wine/great homemade food, etc.

We definitely all have a story to tell.

And if you have a vinyl player, that's pretty cool too :)

In 2009, I took part to the French national slam poetry championship in Paris, among 120 performers.
I jumped from an aqueduct three times.
I was pushed out of a plane with a huge smile of satisfaction for the first time in 2010.
I left everything for someone living 7 000 miles away from me in 2011.
I met a bear in the mountains of North Carolina.
I swam under "The Last of The Mohicans" waterfalls.
I spent the 2012 New Year's Eve in the oldest basement of Prague, watching the Czech legend and blues player Luboš Andršt (who jammed with B.B. King) play 4 hours of blues/rock standards with his fellas.
