Hey 👋

I’m Alex, from Lille, France 🇫🇷

I’ve started this amazing Couchsurfing journey in June 2024, and it has been an amazing experience so far 😍

Major travel fun fact : I DON’T FLY ✈️🚫

🚨 October 2025 update : I will be travelling with my partner Maxime for 2 months, we’ve been a couple since two years now. Max in few words : sports lover (cycling, basketball, trail running and hiking) - coffee addict - software engineer - talkative person

I am on my way back home by land !
I crossed Europe, Balkans, Turkey, Georgia, Central Asia, Pakistan, India, Nepal, China, Laos and Vietnam reaching South East Asia after +1y on the road and +30 000 kilometers

I like :

😋 Try local/new food (🌱vegetarian of course)
📸 Like to walk/wander in the city taking photographies
🎾 Love to play sports (like tennis, paddel, gym, yoga, badminton etc...)
⛰️ Hike mountains
🌞 Watch sunset
