HI BUDDIES ! Richard, Brittany boy (North West of France), 24 years old, rather nice, rather not homebody, rather funny

After a master's degree in Energy (Montpellier, South of France) and an unforgettable internship in Madagascar, I developed a thirst for adventure and discovery that I intend to satisfy !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

From May 2018, I leave France for a 4-months Road Trip from Brazil to Canada, to raise awareness about Cystic Fibrosis (a genetic disease that I have).

I'm open minded, curious and friendly, so I thought it was the perfect occasion to discover and make my own experience of Couchsurfing, which I was told the greatest good ! ;)

Interests

What I like the most in the world ? Find myself alone contemplating the wild nature, dance among a cheerful crowd in the heart of a festival where my favorite artists are giving themselves, skiing with my friends, capture UV rays on a tropical beach, have metaphysical conversations about everything and nothing, discover new ways to see the world, eat Brittany's pancakes and drink cider.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having lived very far from home, on this big, contrasted but beautiful island that is Madagascar. Nothing amazing for you, but for me this trip has been a new open-mindedness on life.

It is thanks to this experience that I decided to embark on this Crossing of Americas against my disease.

Teach, Learn, Share

While I'll be in your country, I will be happy to discover a little about you, your friends or your family, the places you like, the dishes you love or hate, the music you dance on and activities that makes you vibrate !

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will teach you some things to say in my language (rough words, for example !), we will compare with amusement our respective countries, we'll exchange our life tips and our points of view, we will drink a glass or two together, in the end .. we should be able to get along well ! ;)
