Overview
About Me
Originally from the south of France (Aix-en-Provence)
Trying the hard but fun adventure of creating my own business (tech startup).
Making the most of the time I've left to spend time with my friends and family, enjoy the wonderful city of Paris and planning my next trip.
Trying to recover from two phones stolen in the course of 4 weeks.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I was recommended this site by several friends, and I believe that if you don't make the effort, you'll never meet new people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Lived 3 months in poor communities in Nicaragua in order to participate in agricultural and micro-finance projects. People had no electricity, no tap water, no meat, but a deep generosity that left a mark on me.
2. Spent two nights in a row in a 24hrs Korean Spa in Los Angeles during a road trip, as I had no money to book an hotel and I didn't know CS at that time…
