Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Learn Portuguese (and a little Rusian)
ABOUT ME
After having moved a lot since the last 3 years, I dropped my bags in Metz, Lorraine. It seems to be a beautifull city with a lot of gardens and seems to get dynamic with the openning of Centre Pompidou (Contempory Art Museum, the annex of the one in Paris)
I'am easygoing, like to go out for some beers or stay home for a nice dinner. We are three people in the appartment. My girlfriend, Camille, who came with me in Metz with the project to open her bookshop and our dog, Neva, a little Beagle.
PHILOSOPHY
Give everyone a fair shake, have as much fun as possible without forgetting the immensity of human suffering in the world, try not to be a coward, failing that try to have a sense of humour about your cowardice, and if equal affection cannot be, let the more loving one be me.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
We've got a flat in Saint Therese, a district close to the train station and the city center. We can welcome people home, in our salon. Max 2 people are convenient for us, for a couple of days. As newcomer, we would like to discover our city, find good spots and also meet people and share things with them.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
One of our roomate in Madrid was crazy about Couchsurfing and she passed us the virus. With Camille, we couchsurfed in Lisboa and from there, Camille and 2 roomates travelled throughout Spain doing Couchsurfing most of the time.
Our roomate invited us also to Couchsurfing parties in Madrid and it was great to meet fresh people from everywhere.
Interests
I love learning, reading, drinking, especially wine (I'am french and from Burgundy), travelling (for the moment Europe and some parts of Africa). I used to be sporty (tennis, running and swimming), but i'am getting fat so maybe I need to practise.
