Hello!

My name is Paul and I am a 29 year-old dreamer and traveler. I am French but have lived in Poland, Reunion Island, Mayotte Island, South Africa, Illinois and Nebraska in the US, New-Zealand and I am currently traveling around Asia with my sister. Together we have been to Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Japan. We have been volunteering everywhere we have been which was a great way to meet people, learn about local culture and contribute to many people's dreams.

My personal interests include spending time in nature (I love trail running, hiking, rock climbing, snorkeling, cycling), music, writing (I am working on a novel), photography and anything yoga/meditation/zen. Oh, yeah, and obviously I love traveling, meeting new people and learning about new cultures!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that to really understand a place and a culture one has to spend time with the locals. I love meeting new people and learning new ways of life. Once I'm settled again I hope to host all my friends from around the world!
