About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Put my foot on the living road

ABOUT ME

French guy, I moved out from Barcelona to Paris in march 2015 for profesional reasons.

Even though I studied politics I'm not totally cynical... I'm especially interested in the Mediterranean area, from Spain to Middle East, and from Balkans to Maghreb. We share more than we think, and not only the same sea :)

Open minded guy... Male, female, black, white, muslim, christian, gay, straight, it doesn't matter if you are interested in sharing your experiences and points of view. Be polite, but come as you are !

Hispanohablantes mas que bienvenidos, asi practico mi castellano :p

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is definitely no better way to discover new cultures and countries !

Interests

As soon as I can I escape from the city to make a hike / cycle ride.. when you live in Paris you also need pure air and green lands ! Although I'm not 100% urban I really enjoy the life here, there is always something to see, a museum to visit, a good restaurant o new bar to try.
