About Me

Hello my name is Geoffrey I am 30 years old and I’ve been nomad all over the world for the last 8 years, I'm looking for new experiences that will mark my existence! I wish to explore the limits of body and the mind. In this quest, I feel a need to discover the inhabitants and cultures of the world. I'm lucky to be born in a beautiful country France. However, I didn’t choose settle for daily comforts. Photography, nature, animals, hiking, dancing, sports, medidation and well-being fascinate me! ( i get start climbing )

While spending three days in the Transsiberian with a Russian family, I felt like time stood still. Since then, I realised my interest and passion was to be on the road. I have to make myself useful and convey my message!

I don’t know what I will do within the next twenty years, but I would like to trying living in the Tiny house. Nevertheless, I will let my instinct guide me. I accept reality just as it is, because this reality results in happiness.

The more I am on the road, the more I am aware of what constitutes life, which alters my approach to travel. I work from time to time, sometimes paid, sometimes voluntary. I consider myself like an apprentice in the school of life, influenced by the people I meet. The adventures that I live are my teachers.  

We are energy. Our condition makes us ephemeral like every living species. So let's enjoy living this present day as if it was our last. Don’t have regret. Let's dare to break this fusional relationship that society seeks to sell us thinking that it is indispensable to our lives., let’s step out of our comfort zone and above all. We need to learn to control our fears and open ourselves to the world in order to transmit.

Be optimistic because. Positive attracts the positive?!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm always glad to meet people anywhere of this world, exchange experiences, discover culture, traditions and learn their knowledge. I wana progress in English because I had some problems since younger for speaking and comprehension although i had to see a specialist at school.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to discover all kind of music, music is so important even if I often listen Hardstyle because it's like to escape this world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have travelled around Australia twice, I crossed the mountains of the High Atlas in Morocco alone for twelve days, I dove in the icy, frozen water of Lake Baikal in Siberia during the winter.  I witnessed life in a monastery for ten days in Indonesia, I was far from civilization, remaining silent, meditating in the same position for more than twelve hours per day. I worked on building a bamboo school without mechanisms when I was in Laos. I also worked for one of the best mushers in the world at the heart of Norwegian nature, amongst so many others things. I am always looking to expand my knowledge of this world by immersing myself with new adventures,  such as the crossing the Atlantic by sailing, or volunteering in Greenland, Mongolia, Central Asia or to reach ever higher mountain summits in South America or Africa.
