About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Move !

ABOUT ME

I am a 26 years old architect. I share an apartment with two of my good friends whom I met during my studies in Strasbourg. Some of them are registered on Couch surfing and we used to receive a lot of couch surfers in Strasbourg !

Six years ago I lived in a "residence international" in Dijon, and I met a lot of people enjoying the Erasmus exchange. I learned how it is important to know different cultures, views about how to enjoy life. I guess that when it all started for me.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to open my mind the most I can, because there is so many things to learn and see, and not that much time. Well, I'm just curious.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to participate in couch surfing by hosting people in our house in Strasbourg : sharing my way of living and enjoying the company of amazing travellers. Now I'd like to try the other way. I feel disappointed when I travel in a foreign country to just use the words "hello", "thank you"... in hostels and restaurants instead of having a real good talk with local people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been living with a danish couchsurfeur in Copenhagen for a month, it was my first couchsurfing experience outside of France and it was really cool. Back home we've hosted couchsurfers from everywhere and tried every time to make them feel comfortable at our place !

Interests

I like skateboarding, judo, architecture, design and modern art.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't know but for example, I like my main picture we did in Portugal with my classmates, big jumps !

Teach, Learn, Share

I am currently very interested in illustration and "do it yourself" design. I try to design my own furniture at home, but I lack time to do it.
I can't pretend to teach anything, but I like to talk about music, skate and architecture of course. I like when people explain me something they have been really thinking about for a long time.
