French expatriate in Germany (since 2014), after living in Scotland and briefly in Japan. Always curious to discover new cultures, learn new languages and meet new people. I'm a simple, quiet person, who can appreciate a 2-3 week trip to the mountains as much as an evening in front of the fire with 2-3 good friends.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love getting off the beaten track of mass tourism and getting to know the locals in a more authentic way. This often leads to rich cultural exchanges and wonderful encounters.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Rock, Reggae, Classic, some traditional french music (Corsica, Occitania...) Books: History, Poetry, some fantasy Movies: List too long :)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
1) I used to work as a horseman in Kushimoto, Japan, and as a sheperd in Ullapool, Scotland... during the same year ! 2) I hitched-hiked alone from Strasbourg, France to Tallinn, Estonia :) 3) Hitch-Hiking and CouchSurfing trip in Iran
