About Me

I am a guy, a budy, a dude, a friend, a joker, a storyteller, an independent, an expressive and an aventurier. I try to be myself as most as I can, and I wish you can like me like this!

I always try to take everything the good way and with a smile : Let's turn it into a joke! I am very easy to live and I don't need much confort. To be cold or hungry once in a while isn't that bad...Our ancestors have lived much worst, and we are not talking about people living in some poor countries...

The next thing might surprise you but : I like to be scared, and I like the stress once in a while. It proves me I am living something unusual and when it's over the feeling is so great!

I am also a nature guy! I like everything which is related to outdoor activities (hiking, trekking, skiing, canoeing, mountain biking, camping, etc)!

Finally, I don't like to be like others. If nobody does it, I want to do it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I pass the word and I try to convince and many people as I can to stop going to hotels and start to couchsurf! Yes it's a way to save money but I mostly do it just because it's much more fun than hostels!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I always offer my couch to anybody who might needs it! I had a few surfing experiences in Europe and South Africa. They were all amazing! I always met great people! Never had a negative experience, not even close to be negative! Always fun and memorable!

Interests

Traveling : I just love it. I am organizing my life in function of it.
-Mechanics : Everything that have a motor and move!
-Good food and wines: I don't care about eating "NotThatGood" food on normal daily bases, but I really enjoy a good typical meal of where I travel. With good beer or a good wine of course!
-High sensation activities like snowboarding, cliff jumping, extreme hiking, motorsports, visiting abandoned buildings, things that makes me scared a little bit!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am very open to every kind of music!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-I did a motorcycle travel during 6 weeks in Africa (Tanzania and Kenya). This trip was really incredible since it gaves me the opportunity to access some very remote area where I could meet some native tribes! I have also encounter many wild animals.
-I participated 3 years in a row in a inter-university race car competition.
-I studied 4 months in Orléans (France)

Teach, Learn, Share

-Before learning anything, you need to know how to learn.
-Give a fish to somebody, he will eat for a day. Learn him how to fish, he will eat his whole life.
